Evidence

Block-evading sock using anon IPs to add false information to bios of living persons, such as John Walker (organist) in last 48 hours. By his own edit on my talk page, he has linked his blocked username to IP79.74.63.15 and the warnings left on those anon IP talk pages. See this diff. Likewise, by his edit at User talk:Wafulz, he has linked IP79.73.93.44 to his blocked account, see this diff.

Comments

These dynamic DSL IPs all resolve back to Tiscali UK Ltd, origin AS9105.

Contribs from this range follow the same edit pattern, disrupting the same articles, etc., and are being used only for disruptive edits from blocked user Tom Sayle, who has "promised" to create alternate accounts, he says. A range block should be considered.

Conclusions

Over 262K users would be blocked to cover all three IPs. I've semiprot'd the page instead. Tagged users. — Rlevse • Talk • 22:32, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
