After their edits to LHC, Ice-nine, and strangelet were reverted, Oldnoah created an (IMO) POV fork of strangelet entitled ice-nine fusion which was nominated for deletion at Articles_for_deletion/Ice-nine_fusion. Oldnoah (and one anon) were the pages' only keep votes until a new user, Transcept, made their very first edit on the AfD. The suspected puppet, exactly like Oldnoah, signed their edit by typing their username in full after the four-tilde signature. (compare http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FIce-nine_fusion&diff=187616637&oldid=187148937 to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FIce-nine_fusion&diff=186632478&oldid=186632146 )
 * Evidence

Transcept's logged-in edit was immediately cleaned up by Special:Contributions/4.248.1.71, from which the only other edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Large_Hadron_Collider&diff=prev&oldid=183688971) was to LHC talk, concerned strangelets, and was signed "noah".

At least one of edits to Ice-nine fusion (clearly by Oldnoah, responding to an error I pointed out on AfD) also comes from the 4.248.X.X namespace. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ice-nine_fusion&diff=186744493&oldid=186633635

The writing styles are similar. Bm gub (talk) 04:47, 29 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Comments

I've made a note about vote stacking at the afd. The signatures and solo edit by Trascept make this a solid case. Indef block of sock and 1 week for master. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 11:21, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Conclusions
 * Unblocked both based on new evidence on Oldnoah's talk page. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 17:44, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
