Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Ruy Lopez/Workshop

Given the fact that it is widely suspected that Ruy Lopez has used sockpuppets in the past, is there some remedy that can cover this loophole? He apparently masks his IP or something as reported at CheckUser. CJK 00:20, 4 February 2006 (UTC)


 * AFAIK, there's no evidence of sockpuppetry -- and certainly nothing about it presented in the Evidence page so far. if you think you can at least prove a high probability that Ruy Lopez has sockpuppets (believe me, thinking Wikipedia reflects extreme libertarian political leanings is not something unique to him) by all means, present the proof.

I didn't say there was concrete proof (though, why would anyone hide their IP if they were innocent?), just that it is suspected by many who have had long term contact with him... in any case, a provision should be made to deal with the possibility nevertheless, such as that in the "Beckjord" case (though I realize it may have been more blatant there).
