[edit] Medule (talk • contribs)

Request on WP:RFI, copying over here to verify suspected sockpupets, to allow appropriate action to be taken. Petros471 17:48, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

User Medule has been for over a month repeatedly making changes to the pages History of Croatia, Croatia, Medieval Croatian state, Dalmatia, Hvar, London Pact, Battle of Vukovar, and others related to Croatia by removing any mention of the words "Croat" or "Croatian" and substituting them with either "Slavic" or "Serb and Croat" etc.; or by adding information which are widely viewed as Serbian nationalist propaganda sometimes supplying external links to organizations such as the Serbian Union Congress as evidence. The dispute was tried to be resolved on the corresponding discussion pages by a number of Croatian contributors to the Wikipedia but to no avail. The user won't give up. In fact, after the protection of Croatia page imposed because of his controversial edits, he has turned his attention to the aforementioned pages and possibly others related to Croatian matters. The situation is further aggravated by the suspicion that Medule may be using the following sockpuppets User:KHasek, User:Bzezen, User:Clavell (as of March 15 2006), as well as anonymous IPs 195.252.84.xxx or 195.252.85.xxx (195.252.86.175 (talk • contribs), 195.252.84.184 (talk • contribs), 195.252.85.237 (talk • contribs), 194.106.187.133 (talk • contribs) etc. // EurowikiJ 10:11, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Confirmed. KHasek and Clavell are sockpuppets of Medule. Bzezen appears unrelated. Jayjg ^(talk) 06:33, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

I think the following users may be Medule as well: User:Purger, User:Purqer, User:Purrger, User:Pirkovank. --AHrvojic 05:42, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Purqer (talk • contribs)

Possible sockpuppet of user Medule (talk • contribs) who has so far been proven to use the following sockpuppets User:KHasek and User:Clavell. After being exposed, the latter two have "disappeared". However, User:Purger has appeared and uses the same pattern as the two aforementioned sockpuppets. EurowikiJ 12:16, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Pirkovank (talk • contribs) Another possible sockpuppet of user Medule (talk • contribs) with the same edit pattern. EurowikiJ 12:27, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

On review of just the contributions, not only do I find no evidence of sockpuppetry, but I see no evidence of a "similar pattern" except that all of these editors appear to hold opinions contrary to that of the requester. Surprisingly enough, there seem to be lots of people who hold opinions on Eastern European politics, and the mere fact that two people disagree with you in the same way does not make them sockpuppets. Request denied. Kelly Martin (talk) 12:29, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

You're admnistrator and I am not. However, irrespective of our political differences Medule (talk • contribs) has been proven to use the sockpuppets: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_CheckUser#Medule_.28talk_.E2.80.A2_contribs.29¨ EurowikiJ 12:38, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
