Light current is currently in the second day of a community-imposed one-month block, which was discussed at length at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Community Ban for User:Light current?. It is suspected that he is evading his block by using one or more anonymous IP addresses.

  • The address 83.100... was last used (and only used) in December of 2006 to make a long series of edits to the Wikipedia Reference Desks; Light current was blocked at that time, and he frequently edits the Reference Desks.
  • The address 87.102... was last used (and only used) in the last day, again while Light current was blocked, and again only to edit the Ref Desks.

Certain stylistic tendencies appear similar. See also Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User: Light current evading block?.

 Inconclusive. Light current is one of zillions of editors using Tiscali UK DSL's DHCP -- the 88.109... IP comes from there too, though Lc has not used that particular one. The other two IPs are from the Karoo ISP, also UK, but there's no more geographic detail than that. You'll need to determine this one from content, not from IP analysis. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 03:36, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Add one more:

This account was created 32 minutes after User:Light current was blocked (initially for a week). User:DarkFuture is interested in exactly the same mix of topics as Light current -- audio electronics and the reference desk -- and now he's posting to the AN/I thread about Lc's community ban. There's absolutely no doubt that this is Lc playing more games. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 19:14, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, Dark is the opposite of light, and future is the opposite of current(kind of). Clever(kind of). HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 19:43, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
