[[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] is banned from editing [[Alberto Fujimori]].[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AAlberto_Fujimori&diff=76107737&oldid=75515956][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Messhermit&diff=76106503&oldid=75947764] However, I believe that he is editing the article as [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]], [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]], [[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]] [[User:74.225.227.204|74.225.227.204]], [[User:147.70.153.117|147.70.153.117]], and [[User:68.215.109.135|68.215.109.135]]. The following are my reasons to believe this:
 
*[[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]]'s IP is owned by Miami-Dade College.[http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=147.70.124.59] Messhermit's user page claims that he is a student at this very same college.
*[[User:147.70.153.117|147.70.153.117]] also edits from Miami-Dade College. [http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=147.70.153.117]
*[[User:147.70.153.139|147.70.153.139]] also edits from Miami-Dade College. [http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=147.70.153.139]
*[[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]] also edits from Miami-Dade College.
*[[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]] also edits from Miami, Florida. [http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=65.2.103.216]
*[[User:68.215.109.135|68.215.109.135]] also edits from Miami, Florida. [http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=68.215.109.135]
*[[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]]'s edit summaries use the phrase "rv. Political bias detected" [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=82835599] [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] uses extremely similar language in his edit summaries about Peru. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=69262310] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_dictators&diff=prev&oldid=83112626][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=War_of_the_Pacific&diff=prev&oldid=77746845][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dictator&diff=prev&oldid=74526856][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peru&diff=prev&oldid=71643358][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peru&diff=prev&oldid=70973779] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peru&diff=prev&oldid=70950464]
*[[User:147.70.153.117|147.70.153.117]] uses similar language [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=82433181]
*[[User:68.215.109.135|68.215.109.135]] also writes of "detecting" POV. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=81848248]
*At one point, [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] acted in total defiance of the ban and edited [[Alberto Fujimori]]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alberto_Fujimori&diff=82638849&oldid=82632814] This creates the impression that he forgot to log out and edit as an IP.
*[[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]], [[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]], and [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] have rushed to defend one another on [[Talk:Alberto Fujimori]], and are apparently in 100% agreement with each other.
*[[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]], [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]], [[User:74.225.227.204|74.225.227.204]] and [[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]] are all obvious [[Wikipedia:Single purpose account|Single purpose accounts]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/65.2.103.216] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/147.70.124.59] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=74.225.187.18] whose purpose seems to be adding [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]]'s suggestions to Peru-related articles.
*[[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]], [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]], [[User:74.225.187.18]], and [[User:74.225.227.204|74.225.227.204]] have almost identicle edit histories. For example, in addition to editing the article on Fujimori, [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]] [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]], and [[User:147.70.153.117|147.70.153.117]] all edit [[List of dictators]]. Interestingly, [[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]], although he has never edited the list of dictators, complained to [[User:Addhoc]] about the state of the list. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Addhoc&diff=prev&oldid=83081257]. [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] also edits this page.
*[[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]]'s complaint to [[User:Addhoc|Addhoc]] is especially suspecious because [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] frequently complains to [[User:Addhoc|Addhoc]].
*[[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] has been involved in editing [[Túpac Amaru Revolutionary Movement]] and [[Shining Path]]. [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]] referred to these edits in the first person. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=82836236] (Note:"Sendero Luminoso" is Spanish for Shining Path).
*[[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] objected to a user calling himself a "human rights advocate." [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AAlberto_Fujimori&diff=83114082&oldid=83113481] [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]] raised the same objection. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=82836236] So did [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=82625859]. So did [[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=83079362] So did [[User:74.225.227.204|74.225.227.204]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Alberto_Fujimori&diff=prev&oldid=82570448]
*Both [[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]] and [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] edit [[Daniel Ortega]].
*Both [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] and [[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]] have made edits to articles relating to World War II.
*Both [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] and [[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]] edit [[Paquisha War]].
*Both [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] and [[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]] edit [[Vladimiro Montesinos]].
*Both [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] and [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]] edit [[Abimael Guzmán]].
*Both [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] and [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]] edit [[Alfredo Stroessner]]
*[[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]] [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]],[[User:74.225.227.204|74.225.227.204]], [[User:147.70.153.117|147.70.153.117]] and [[User:68.215.109.135|68.215.109.135]] all have the same ISP, BellSouth. While DNS stuff identifies two out of these five as originating in Altanta, Georgia rather than Miami, that may be due to the fact that BellSouth.net, Inc. is located at 575 Morosgo Drive Atlanta, GA.
 
If [[User:65.2.103.216|65.2.103.216]], [[User:147.70.124.59|147.70.124.59]], [[User:74.225.187.18|74.225.187.18]], [[User:74.225.227.204|74.225.227.204]], [[User:147.70.153.117|147.70.153.117]] and [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] are not the same editor, than I deeply apologize to all of them. I feel somewhat embarrassed to be the one to make such a serious accusation, but it seems to me that a wikipedian banned from editing [[Alberto Fujimori]] may be doing so.
 
I also ask that a decision be made on [[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]], even though he has not edited in about a month. This user, who has injected the same pro-Fujimori POV into other articles, edited [[Paquisha War]]. [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] is banned from editing any articles dealing with wars between Ecuador and Peru (See Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Messhermit), and it is thus important to know if [[User:147.70.124.109|147.70.124.109]] and [[User:Messhermit|Messhermit]] are the same person. --[[User:Descendall|Descendall]] 19:35, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Line 9 ⟶ 65:
*There is a strong probability that [[user:Messhermit|Messhermit]] may be involved in the recent vandal attacks on the article [[Ecuadorian-Peruvian war]]. While most of the recent attacks have come from open proxies in Lima (see this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_investigation#Requests request for investigation]), the first ones came from IP addresses in Miami (which is where Messhermit apparently resides). Messhermit is banned from editing any article on the history of the Ecuadorian-Peruvian dispute for one year (see [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Messhermit]]), and it looks an attempt at gaming the system, with the help of one or more friends from Lima.
*The fact that Messhermit came out fast to report an "edit war" between the IP users and me, (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Tony_Sidaway&diff=prev&oldid=64657786]), and the wording used when he asked for a full protection of the article (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection&diff=prev&oldid=64759217]), which was denied, as well as the ''modus operandi'' of the IP vandals only reinforce the suspicion that Messhermit is involved in this issue and has recruited the help of others, apparently editors of the Spanish Wikipedia.
