[edit] NBGPWS

It has been raised on the admin noticeboard Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:NBGPWS that User:NBGPWS may be a single-use sockpuppet account. I don't know what the master account would be, but it would likely be very easy to determine from the IP address.

Clerk note: While the checkusers will make a final determination, these type of requests are usually rejected. Assuming the theories on the noticeboard are correct (a regular user has created a single purpose account to edit a particular article and is being disruptive there), in the past that has not been enough to warrant exposing the user's main account. If the user is causing problems s/he should be treated at face value as any other disruptive editor. A case describing a more long-term or widespread problem covering multiple articles is more likely to be accepted. Thatcher131 (talk) 19:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NBGPWS

They seemed to have flipped political positions a half dozen times during their flame war, seems odd unless they're one person trying to disrupt an AFD by flaiming themselves, to top it all off, they've both only ever edited that one AFD page--64.12.116.65 04:24, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
