* '''Supporting evidence:''' The IPs have the exact same [[User talk:201.2.236.153#Roman Catholic Church|editing patterns]], they are all under the same ISP (LACNIC) and that has been confirmed by WHOIS. On [[Template:Holy Roman Emperors]], the user was undeniably edit warring by use of ''more'' sock puppets, this being after the case was handled several times by more than one admin. Obviously, at this point, the user is aware that abuse of sockpuppet accounts are prohibited under certain uses (as seen on [http://toolserver.org/~sql/socktime.php?user1=Auson&user2=Ausonia&user3=Italicus&user4=Catholicus&user5=ProSaDomino&user6=Malleus+Haereticorum&user7=Troy+is+a+parasite&user8=&user9=200.215.40.3&user10= this string of edits by each contributer]). These include using them to evade blocks, bans, and user accountability—and especially to make personal attacks or reverts, or vandalism. The most noticeable err against that would be the simple fact that he has evaded blocks 3 times before the first checkuser request, this would be the fifth if you include it as a seperate evasion from the one made by [[User:Troy is a parasite]].
 
* Also, there were countless edits in other projects, as you can see in the case below. So, in regards to the cross-wiki sock puppetry, as explained [[meta:Vandalism reports#200.215.40.3|here]], the user was actually blocked once in Italian Wikipedia and was noticeably disruptive in a few of the main articles in which this person edited. Considering how widespread this is, I would highly suggest that cases should be opened in the major problem areas like Portugese wiki, Latin wiki and Italian wiki. Lastly, if there is any information that should be carefully given, feel free to send me an email. I will usually respond swiftly to any queries. I assumed that the issues would have at least temporarily subsided on this wiki for a few months longer, but unfortunately, that hasn't been the case. I am thus more open to any suggestions in regards to what further steps should be taken and how this issue can be avoided in the future.

In progress. Requires crosswiki checks. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 12:19, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
:OK, so just making sure that it's ptwiki, lawiki (''la'', not lt) and itwiki that need to be looked at, respectively. In any case, I would expect some kind of result from those projects, first and foremost. [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 00:14, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
::Still working this, it will take a block of time to get to the bottom of this. Sorry for the delay. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 21:52, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
:::No worries, you can take your time. I'm not in a rush right now because I know that the IP socks responsible for this mess will turn up again sooner or later, so, steady as she goes. [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 01:37, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
::::Minor update: WHOIS query for [[Special:Contributions/189.73.71.46|User:189.73.71.46]] matches identically with the other IP addresses. I have thus added that IP to the list for the sake of tracking purposes—these IP ranges are a little more dynamic than I would like. I'm sure to find more, of course. [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 00:08, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
 
{{Takenote}} I'll be helping with the en.wiki part of this while Lar concentrates on the cross wiki checks. <span style="font-family: verdana;"> — [[User:Rlevse|<span style="color:#060;">'''''R''levse'''</span>]] • [[User_talk:Rlevse|<span style="color:#990;">Talk</span>]] • </span> 02:28, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm still working the crosswiki stuff but it's a hard slog. The request is so nebulous that it's hard to come to grips what to look for. I'm about ready to chalk this up as unresolvable. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 16:14, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
:I had a feeling that might be the case. If so; you might as well do that. I'm ready to spot the guy's edits if I can in the future, but if it's that hard to checkuser, it won't be much easier to present. Quite unfortunate for those ranges to be so dynamic, but at least I have somewhat of an idea of what to expect :P [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 00:46, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
::Argh ...I just checked the contribs on this wiki now; he was using [[Special:Contributions/189.31.82.149|189.31.82.149]] just a few days ago. Certainly the same guy if you look at [[Special:Contributions/189.31.82.148|189.31.82.148]]. Still, it's not my within my decision if you want to discontinue the cross-wiki checks; I've already said pretty much what I knew. [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 00:53, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
*Note: the user has been actively disruptive for days now, and it doesn't seem that s/he was competent enough to get the idea. I would've thought that s/he would've given up by now, but that only means that it's getting out of hand at this point. The user is abusively & intentionally changing his IP address on a daily basis now. Yesterday, it was [[Special:Contributions/189.31.111.17|189.31.111.17]], and again, he turned up today as [[Special:Contributions/201.2.236.54|201.2.236.54]]. I'm absolutely open to suggestions, but in the mean time, this certainly needs to be looked at closely. [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 00:50, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 
{{confirmed}} same guy as before. As these are rather dynamic, I did three range blocks. That's about all we can do here, try to isolate ranges small enough to block. I close this now and reopen if it is warranted later. <span style="font-family:Verdana,sans-serif"> — [[User:Rlevse|<b style="color:#060;"><i>R</i>levse</b>]] • [[User_talk:Rlevse|<span style="color:#990;">Talk</span>]] • </span> 01:59, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
*As long as I can avoid the issue here, that will serve its purpose. Of course, if I spot something unusual, I'll have to report it, but that's it otherwise. [[User:Troy 07|~ Troy]] ([[User talk:Troy 07|talk]]) 01:35, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

*{{confirmed}} the named accounts with edits on this wiki are the same person, and he has edited a lot while logged out from these or similar IPs. You'll have to ask a local checkuser or steward to deal with the situation on other wikis. [[User talk:Thatcher|Thatcher]] 00:29, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
*{{clerknote}} Ok, so it appears all the named accounts have already been blocked, and I have only blocked one of the IP's listed above seeing as it is the only one that has edited within the past month and until I see recent disruption from the other listed IP's I am going to leave them unblocked. So, if they start up again contact me and I.
