• 68.239.87.12 (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • WHOIS • RDNS • trace • RBLs • http • block user • block log) -- User appeared today and began removing links to material I wrote for think tank where I work, claiming it was original research. Request investigation. I have edited hundreds of pages and seldom add a link to my own work. Others have added links to my work as well. Not always me. This matter has been through arbitration - I try to follow the guidelines. (My outside world identity is Chip Berlet. I apologize for being a magnet for controversy.// Cberlet 23:10, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

• comment All three links in question were to writings by Chip Berlet hosted on the publiceye.org website. All three were added to Wikipedia articles by User:Cberlet. Read the rules: "Because of neutrality & point-of-view concerns, a primary policy of Wikipedia is that no one from a particular site/organization should post links to that organization/site etc. Because neutrality is such an important -- and difficult -- objective at Wikipedia, this takes precedence over other policies defining what should be linked. The accepted procedure is to post the proposed links in the Talk section of the article, and let other - neutral - Wikipedia editors decide whether or not it should be included." 68.239.87.12 02:49, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

• comment the second User:Cberlet has again restored the links to his own articles in violation of the above rules. More generally, writings from Chip Berlet and Political Research Associates are questionable as sources on Wikipedia given his peculiar world view, a mutant version of post-1960s identity politics which often veers into an extreme anti-populism analysis. He also continues to be obsessed with keeping old and now irrelevant controversies alive by taking jabs at other groups on the left he had disagreements with, e.g. with the Christic Institute. Is there any way Use:Cberlet can be directed not to edit any articles on people or groups that he is known as a critic of in real life? It seems that NPOV and basic ethics would demand it. 68.239.87.12 03:11, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Response: Michael Ruppert. Added critical material written by Norman Solomon, stored on publiceye.org with permission of Solomon. see diff: [1]. Other link was to online review of articles by many other authors.--Cberlet 03:14, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Response: Conspiracism. Created page after conspiracy theorists repeatedly place text on Wikipedia wrongly claiming that I had invented the term. Page identified scholar who actually had popularized the term. See: [2]. Survived vote for deletion.--Cberlet 03:17, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Response: Christic Institute. Added first alternative POV to what was a puff piece on this controversial group. My monograph--published in print form--is one of the few published extensive discussions of the Christic Institute--and text added to Wikipedia primarily cites former Christic client with serious criticism. Prior to my addition, entry failed to mention that Christics's "most high-profile case" had been dismissed by a judge and that the clients had complained about Christic's handling of the case.--Cberlet 03:23, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Summary. I have edited hundreds of pages, and before I link to a page at <publiceye.org> I search for other pages that can be linked.--Cberlet 03:25, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

• 64.142.89.105 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) constantly changes articles about bands that have proper nouns for names. For instance, a passage in the Guns N' Roses article said "Guns N' Roses is" (correct) and he changed it to "Guns N' Roses are" (incorrect). The vandal suggested we discuss it on the Guns N' Roses talk page. We did so and concluded with proper evidence that "Guns N' Roses is" is the correct wording. However, when we go back to revert the changes 64.142.89.105 has made, he reverts back immediately and calls us vandals that should discuss the situation further. He then threatens to report us to Wikipedia, despite the fact that he has been blocked and banned from Wikipedia numerous times for doing the exact same thing. Please prevent him from further trolling and vandalizing Wikipedia. TheNewMinistry 19:51, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Objection - TheNewMinistry has been refusing to discuss his changes on talk page when I asked him to stop changing "Guns N' Roses are" back to "Guns N' Roses is". I have been trying to prove to him that "Guns N' Roses are" is actually correct. 64.142.89.105 20:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
  • That's a lie - the situation has been discussed in full on the talk page, but 64.142.89.105 ignores that fact. TheNewMinistry 20:20, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Nikeman916 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) - Images added to several articles with text apparently inviting votes for some competition; I have reverted the changes, but would welcome another opinion. Vandalism/inexperience/self-promotion... or is there really a Wikipedia photo competition going on that I'm not aware of??? // Charivari 03:43, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

• WR-Recruiter (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) -- Username and lone edit suggest loyalty to Wikipedia Review, so this could possibly be a reincarnation of a previously banned user. 69.117.11.27 22:19, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

• Czestochowa (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) -- Just appeared. But I reverted a few insertions of spam links (to something in a blog) by User:130.88.13.207 today, which I first noticed as [3]; the pattern does look like a continuation of the same thing. There is some subtlety; observe [4], which inserted an error into a URL that I had just reverted to; followed by [5] which reinstates the URL I just deleted. I could just revert these pages, but perhaps there is a more appropriate action (e.g. could these links be blocked?) Notinasnaid 12:46, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
  • You can request for URLs to be blacklisted, but I don't think there is any need here, as seems to have stopped. Petros471 13:57, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

• Redjax888 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) -- He is editing an article talk page, Talk:Bob Brinker, as if it were the article, changing headings and significantly editing, changing, removing previous editor's comments. He seems to be doing it out of ignorance of WP guidelines, though to promote his POV. An IP has done this previously, probably same person, and now this newly registered user is making the same edits. I posted a note on user's talk page, and have (Confession coming, please absolve me) reverted him 3 times within 24 hours. I couldn't find any WP policy I could quote, telling him not to edit other people's comments on an article talk page. What should I do next? // ॐ Priyanath 03:01, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Redjax888 continues to remove other people's comments from the Talk:Bob Brinker page - see Talk:Bob Brinker history. He has done it seven times now, and possibly more under an IP. He has received four requests/warnings on his talk page User_talk:Redjax888, from two different editors, including a last warning. A 24 hour block would be most appropriate, I think. ॐ Priyanath 17:14, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Redjax888 seems to be back deleting content with his AOL IP address 172.194.65.210

The information posted on the web site they keep deleting exposes a massive cover-up by Bob Brinker summarized here http://investment.suite101.com/discussion.cfm/7/86-94#message_9 . Is there a way to hard code that information into the page? WikiHelperUSA 23:48, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

• • • Redjax888 was blocked for 24 hours on 21 May, and seems to have stopped since then. Petros471 13:53, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

• Joe Smythe, AAAA, MAAAA (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) -- adding POV to the Actuarial Outpost article again. It requires reversion. -- Avi 21:56, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Appears to be a content dispute rather than actual vandalism. I'm attempting to mediate. Request another opinion though. Although, recommend further investigation to the sockpuppetry claims below. ^demon^{[yell at me]} /22:24, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Actuarial Outpost (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - There is a user User:Joe Smythe, AAAA, MAAAA who has a personal vendetta against the site and its administrator's, and has been vandalizing the article under a number of sock puppet accounts, please see here: Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Joe Smythe, AAAA, MAAAA. If this person is using the same IP, I think some kind of warning/ban may be due. The user also has launched a 3RR investigation againstme to prevent my revsion of his vandalism. Please see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/3RR#Avraham.2C_TheActuary Thank you. // Avi 21:08, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• TabibHusseynovNeedsMy_Dick (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log), Köpek_Ibne_Sösömüs (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) - I found these 2 accounts at Talk:Arran (Azerbaijan). The first one is an attempt to attack User:Tabib, second one is anti-Turkish and consist of obscene Turkish words (ibne means homosexual, for example). I suspect that these accounts are created by banned users, probably related to the arbcom decision: Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Baku_Ibne,_et_al.#Final_decision. User:Köpek Ibne Sösömüs made some vandal edits to the article Arran (Azerbaijan) a couple of months ago, but has been inactive for quite a while. I think the one who’s behind those accounts just waits for the right time to use them again. Grandmaster 10:39, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure that looking at history pages of those articles would reveal more sockpuppets and more vandalism, but I'm just a part-time dabbler and out of my depth.

  • Has been blocked for edit warring. Petros471 19:45, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

• RockmanX (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) He has been incorrectly crediting himself and tagging the pictures he uploads as being the creator of different pictures, including this one and this one when in fact they are copyrighted pictures taken off of other websites. I called him on this and he became very hostile. The Styles Clash 04:19, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

• OutRider2003 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log). OutRider2003 has on four occasions removed a free image from the Dalip Singh page and replaced it with a copyrighted image that claims fair use "in the absence of a free alternative". My arguments against this course of action have been somewhat flippantly rebuffed, with OutRider2003 erasing my comments from his talk page. I have warned him that his actions verge on vandalism but this does not appear to have deterred him. McPhail 21:12, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

• Who_is_your_daddy%3F (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) -- Obviously not an admin; yet they closed two MfDs here and here while also managing to spend some time at the infamous GNAA page which sockpuppets often frequent. Additionally, Jet_Engines (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) created the extraneous articles Wikipedia:Three-million pool and Wikipedia:Hundred-million pool around the same time. I strongly suspect that both of them are sockpuppets, especially since Wikipedia:Hundred-million pool directly associates the latter with User:Hot water heater and User:Car salesman who have already been banned as socks (see here). // Big Smooth 23:59, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Possibly file a checkuser request if continues, however I'm not sure the creation of the pool pages is that serious. If suspected socks are affecting more important votes please bring attention to that on the individual voting page. Petros471 19:03, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

• 24.144.84.178. (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) -- We should probably keep an eye on this one. Has stopped editing for the moment, but his contribs include vandalizing the Wikipedia article by transcluding multiple user pages onto it, vandalizing a user page, and transcluding User:Jimbo Wales onto his user page. // EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 21:29, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Comment- With the new arrangement of these pages, I'm not sure if I've put this in the right place, or if something like this needs to be reported at all. However, I felt this case was slightly less benign than most, as the user is obviously fairly familiar with Wikipedia and tried to impersonate Jimbo. Please leave me a message that says something to the effect of "you put this report in the right place" or "this was an absolute waste of time; in the future, please do this..." Thanks. :o) EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 21:34, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

He contiunes with his sneaky vandalism. He alters numbers without stateing any sources and removes key paragraphs. He has done so far all his time in wiki and it does not look like he will stop any time soon. If there is any doubt about him beeing a sneaky vandal then I can post all the times he has done it. He also often ignores the talk pages and almost never responds to them. (Deng 15:49, 13 April 2006 (UTC))

The vandal continues with his vandalism in every article he removes the word NAZI from NAZI germany. This causes the problem that when you click on the word germany you come to the germany of today page and not nazi germany. He has done this in many articles if not all that he has seen. Also where there is no link he still removes the word nazi. Which can be seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_K%C3%B6nigsberg&diff=49776482&oldid=49751473 The he says he removes it because other battle boxes dosent have it. Well that is because he has removed it from the other boxes. He has removed it from other boxes and then says look at the other boxes. He contiunes with his changeing of sourced figures without stateing any source for example here http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Kiev_%281941%29&diff=49954899&oldid=48309290 and as always he minimizes axis losses and maximizes allied ones just as he has done in many other articles. And now he has started with grammatical vandalism which can be seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anglo-Soviet_invasion_of_Persia&diff=49834302&oldid=49251690 (Deng 21:38, 24 April 2006 (UTC))

• Mines45 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log). Mines45 has targeted several professional wrestling articles, most frequently Amy Dumas. Despite opposition, Mines45 has continually reverted to a version that contains misspellings and other errors. Mines45 has yet to provide a single edit summary in over four months of editing, and has not responded to several messages left on his or her talk page. Mines45 is dogmatically restoring his or her own edits despite opposition and refuses to justify these edits. McPhail 14:54, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Followed up with a message on the user's talk page. --Zsinj^Talk 15:48, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Mines45 has resumed editing the pages in question, again without edit summaries or use of the talk page. McPhail 15:25, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
      • I have given a final warning on the user's talk page. Admin intervention would be nice. --Zsinj^Talk 17:39, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
        • Mines45 has one again blanked his or her talk page and edited the articles in question. McPhail 19:13, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
          • Is there any chance of getting intervention from an administrator? Mines45 continues to unilaterally edit the Amy Dumas page, and is now making controversial edits to Torrie Wilson. McPhail 18:02, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
          • Mines45 is now blocked for a week. Petros471 16:57, 18 May 2006 (UTC).
