Main IP:  User:86.42.119.12

August 26th - September 11th, 01:03 (but no futher edits after being accused of being Wikipéire here).


 * The first edit was on August 26th - which was the day User:Pureditor was exposed as bing a sock of Wikipéire here. - State & Canada (both per Wikipéire), many Irish nationality edits etc, British Isles etc. Possibly nothing outside of known interest.

User Wikipére, a lon-time puppet master, is finally now just using a group of IP addresses it seems. is last checkuser (a few days ago) is Requests_for_checkuser/Case/Ovlem.

Recent case:


 * Checkuser evidence.


 * All the above accounts/IPs are ✅, except 86.42.119.12 which is and 78.152.255.89 which is . Revealing IP information here per checkuser policy due to egregious abuse. And yes, he's also logging in and out constantly, mostly to edit-war with Mooretwin (calling his edits 'vandalism') -  A l is o n  ❤ 20:57, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * So User:86.42.119.12 is the wrong part of Dublin? This is useful to know when cross checking times. And how does he get from 78.16 to 213.202 - is that a nearby location?--Matt Lewis (talk) 21:18, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't tell me - you can't divulge! --Matt Lewis (talk) 21:27, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Correct! No technical stuff. Bad enough that I'm confirming IPs-to-editors (it's warranted here, IMO) but that's all you can have, sorry! - A l is o n  ❤ 21:43, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * User:Watchlistac has just MOVED two Ireland articles - what's going on, guys? --Matt Lewis (talk) 15:45, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

'''User:Watchlistac IS STILL DISRUPTING! COME ON!''' --Matt Lewis (talk) 15:45, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Conclusions
 * Matt, chill out. I'm only checkuser here. I don't like blocking accounts I've been involved in checkusering, unless it's egregious (like Grawp). Best that someone else like a RFCU clerk do it. In this case, nobody blocked the sock account, so I went ahead and did it anyways - A l is o n  ❤ 07:04, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I know what the score is - it's lack of available hands. --Matt Lewis (talk) 14:27, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Since Alison did it already, case closed. OhanaUnitedTalk page 17:19, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
