*{{checkuser|Snowolfd4}}

*{{checkuser|Iwazaki}}

*'''Code letter:''' C, D & E

User Snowolfd4 has used user Iwazaki to violate the 3RR rule, used the account to votestack on pages related to the Tamil Tigers and Sri Lanka and continously uses one account to break with Wikipedia policy, feigning ignorance, whilst using the main account to do the same style of edits but to a lesser degree and also do legitimate edits on unrelated articles. All relevant infomation can be found here [[Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets/Snowolfd4]]. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Sharz|Sharz]] ([[User talk:Sharz|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Sharz|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->

::{{moreinfo}} Please provide diffs for code letters C, D, and E.

Since no diffs seem to be forthcoming from [[User:Sharz|Sharz]], I have decided to try to find them myself:

*Code D vote - [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Terrorist attacks attributed to the LTTE]]

*Code E diffs - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_Task_Force&diff=93983377&oldid=93969487], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_Task_Force&diff=94067392&oldid=93997573], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_Task_Force&diff=94133567&oldid=94123379], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_Task_Force&diff=94236057&oldid=94228792], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_Task_Force&diff=94238372&oldid=94237531]

I can't find any diffs to prove a Code C case, but hopefully the above diffs can help out in this RFCU case. [[User:DarthVader|DarthVad]][[Wikipedia:Esperanza|<span style="color:green;">e</span>]][[User:DarthVader|r]] 11:14, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

*{{checkuser|Snowolfd4}}

*{{checkuser|208.101.4.34}}

*{{checkuser|203.171.70.136}}

*{{checkuser|Dutugemunu}}

Can someone please do a checkuser on [[USer:Snowolfd4]] and figure out if he is using the IPs as mentioned below. I presume there is a bigger problem, the user is using multiple open proxies to login and vandalize my page and also issue death threats. I see two IPs rightaway: 208.101.4.34 and also 203.171.70.136. I would like to know about the user who has left a msg in my page and his relationship with the user profile: Snowolfd4. Kindly help and prevent such profiles from issuing such warnings in Wikipedia. Thanks for your help.

This is relevant to the following open requests:

1). [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Personal_attack_intervention_noticeboard#Snowolfd4.C2.A0.28talk.C2.A0.E2.80.A2.C2.A0contribs.29 WP:Pain open request on the user:Snowolfd4]

2). [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Vandalizing_personal_page_.26_Death_threat_issued_to_Tamilians_and_WP:NCSLC_members WP:AN/I open request]

Kindly help. Thanks

*Note, death threats have been issued from the above IP addresses and involve a dispute both Sudharsansn and Snowolfd4 are involved in. At one point, IP used signature of [[User:Snowolfd4]]; we'd like to verify whether or not this account is making the threats anonymously. [[User:Shell_Kinney|Shell]] ^{[[User_talk:Shell_Kinney|babelfish]]} 18:13, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

*A point has also been made that the user attacked was also involved in a dispute with the Snowolfd4 and this may be a [[joe job]]. Please check both editors. [[User:Naconkantari|<span style="color:red;">Nacon</span><span style="color:gray;">'''kantari'''</span>]] 18:38, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

::Can you also please check [[User:Dutugemunu]]. This person's edit and snowolfd4 seem very simillar. I am not sure if this could be a sockpuppet account [[User:Elalan|Elalan]] 18:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

*::It is not clear whether Lahiru_k is innocent in all of this. These series of vandalisms occurred, after I had given a civility warning to Lahiru for having offensive user boxes [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ALahiru_k&diff=87190158&oldid=87096678]. In particular he had a userbox that said "This user opposes LTTE supporters on Wikipedia" and directed personal attack against me saying that I didn't have common sense on another wikipedia article [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Sri_Lankan_Air_Force&oldid=87080867]. Once I raised this offensive userbox and the incident, Lahiru's response was the following [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ALahiru_k&diff=87716956&oldid=87500387]. He had claimed to be busy after this point and refused to do anything about the complaint till Dec. 4th. [[User:Elalan|Elalan]] 22:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

::Noting that the image in the userbox is a copyright violation [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:NEW_LTTE_Logo.jpg], I had applied for speedy removal of the template and the template was removed. User Lahiru silently removed <b> references </b> to this offensive userbox today I believe, after the template had been removed by the authorities [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ALahiru_k&diff=88004071&oldid=87793808]. At the same time [[User:Sudharsansn| Sudharsansn]] and [[User:Sechzehn|Sechzehn]] also intervened to get this offensive userbox removed and this is when the threatening posts directed at Sudharsansn and the Neutral Coverage of the Sri Lankan Crisis wikiproject members started appearing. In particular, Sudharsan had notified me of the threatening userbox template on Lahiru's page. These appear to be the version vandalized by the IP [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lahiru_k/UserBox/Supports_the_Troops&oldid=87986863],[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lahiru_k/UserBox/Supports_the_Troops&oldid=87903778] . However in both cases Lahiru did do the right thing and revert to original version of template (that was not threatening). [[User:Elalan|Elalan]] 22:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

:None of the possible accounts are on the same ISP. Unfortunately, I can't find any established user to connect it to, though it would seem like there must be one for such directed vandalism. [[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]]·[[User talk:Dmcdevit|t]] 00:14, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

::I am completely ready to be checked. Please go ahead. I access my system only from two IPs. One of them being this one, pretty rarely and the other one which I am willing to furnish. Please ensure that such death-threat-issuing behaviour does not continue here. I am more than willing to be checked and verified by any admin. Thanks [[User:Sudharsansn|Sudharsansn]] ([[User talk:Sudharsansn|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Sudharsansn|contribs]]) 11:21, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

:::{{clerknote}} in response to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Personal_attack_intervention_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=88412155 this], Dmcdevit stated above the ISP's were different, therefore the technical evidence suggests that they are {{unrelated}}. '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|Daniel.Bryant]] ^{[&nbsp;[[User talk:Daniel.Bryant|T]]&nbsp;·&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Daniel.Bryant|C]]&nbsp;]}''' 12:44, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

::::I am suspicious that the IPs are open proxies because they have invalid DNS entries, and one is hosted at an ISP that hosts other likely open proxies. I have listed them at [[WP:OPP]] but no answer yet. Unfortunately if the user is using proxies it will be impossible to confirm technically one way or the other. You can try [[WP:SSP]]; accounts with identical posting patterns can be treated as obvious socks without technical evidence, especially if the proxy checks come back positive. [[User talk:Thatcher131|Thatcher131]] 12:55, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

::::Hi, I just checked from [http://centralops.net/co/ Centralops] and IMHO it appears to be a clear open-proxy site as the DNS records suggest that the IP is from an arbit site names [http://www.pakistanihost.com pakistanihost.com] which appears more like a site to have multiple ids than hosting actually. I really would want an admin to look into the DNS records to be sure if this is not an open proxy edit. I really am not sure as to what I should be doing now actually, but eitherway thanks for your help and do help me out in this situation to make sure that such behavior does not continue. Thanks [[User:Sudharsansn|Sudharsansn]] ([[User talk:Sudharsansn|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Sudharsansn|contribs]]) 17:11, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

:::::Considering that there is an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:OPP Open request for this in WP:OPP] should this stay in Completed requests or Open requests here? Kindly help and if required please do move it to Open requests. Thanks [[User:Sudharsansn|Sudharsansn]] ([[User talk:Sudharsansn|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Sudharsansn|contribs]]) 10:16, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

::::::Checkuser's done everything it can. Stays in #Completed. '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|Daniel.Bryant]] ^{[&nbsp;[[User talk:Daniel.Bryant|T]]&nbsp;·&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Daniel.Bryant|C]]&nbsp;]}''' 14:26, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

:::::::I understand the status as far as Checkuser is concerned. I kindly request the admins involved in this page to look into the open request in WP:OPP and update the situation so that the open requests w.r.to this issue can be completed at the earliest.
