User (under two variant names) has suddenly popped up, and started attempting to refactor links in long obsolete talk page comments made by User:Wikinger, and attempting to recreate deleted pages as cross-wiki redirects. User:Wikinger, in his later incarnation as User:CBMIBM was indef blocked for massive cross-wiki disruption in June of this year. The pages that he's been breaking have now been semi-protected, so he's trying to get other people (me included) to make the edits for him. He's also asked me to get User talk:Wikinger deleted. Why would we want to delete a page that contains so much valuable information about his antics. Per WP:DUCK, I can only conclude that he's back, and he's disruptive.
 * Evidence

Read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Names_of_large_numbers&diff=237140754&oldid=236894802 Wikinger never did such things, but I did them formerly when I was angry. Orlowski pokemaster (talk) 13:16, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comments
 * Identical reaction to User:CBMIBM when he was accused of being a Wikinger Sock Mayalld (talk) 13:20, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

My reaction is not so identical - he never used middle fingers when becoming angry. Orlowski pokemaster (talk) 13:43, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * No, it is an identical reaction, in terms of creating some artificial personality trait for the new sock that can be used later to "prove" that you aren't the same person. Mayalld (talk) 13:47, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

My wikingometer just made a strange sound that sounded a bit like "quack", then it hit its limit and exploded. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:00, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Conclusions
 * And somebody beat me to the block by a few seconds. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:02, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that...just before my wikingometer exploded, I believe it managed to issue two indefinite blocks for block evasion. Had you installed upgrade v.2 on yours? GbT/c 14:03, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * No, mine was actually still one of those old, hand-driven mechanical ones. They are usually quite robust. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:05, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Aaah - a traditionalist. I think you can pick up parts on Ebay. Meanwhile, back on the ranch... SSPa. GbT/c 14:13, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
