[edit] Barbara Osgood
- Barbara Osgood (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)
Barbara_Osgood (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log) exhibits a consistent pattern of making a number of small, possibly valid edits to apparently random articles, introducing steadily increasing degrees of absurdity and ending with a patent whopper. A number of accounts have edits interleaved with "Osgood", leading to the conclusion that they are sockpuppets. I have just spent another hour checking and winding back these vandal edits. I have indef-blocked the suspected socks, but I need to prove that they genuinely are socks in order to take stronger action against Osgood. The socks are:
- Paulo_Fontaine (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
- Paul_Fountain (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
- Connor_Anderson (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
- Baron_von_Economo (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
- Billy_Budd (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
- Deborahdare (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
- Five_O'clock_Dog (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log)
If this is not a sock farm then it is a series of remarkable coincidences. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C]

- User:Barbara Osgood is also User:Eddie Lee Beppaux, User:Paulo Fontaine, User:Don Barber, User:Martin Whitlock, User:Ian Harbord, User:Baron von Economo, User:Jim Dale, User:Billy Budd, User:Connor Anderson and others, confirmed by CheckUser. Seems that this is rather out of date confirmation though, but I figured I should at least do it. —Matthew Brown (T:C) 13:53, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
- Barbara Osgood is NOT Paulo Fontaine. That's a different kettle of fish/socks entirely. So stop it. Barbara Osgood 15:26, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
