All users vandalize Goa Inquisition:

  • Vandalism by Xandar [1][2][3][4]
  • The theres a subsequent unjustified revert by CC80 [5]

Theres a serious pattern of vandalism occuring on that page, and myself and other users suspect sock/meatpuppetry.Bakaman 05:10, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Declined. I don't see anything that rises to the level of needing checkuser; this looks like a plain old editing dispute. Essjay (Talk) 01:48, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Would you consider reviewing that decline? I've come to this page for other reasons and recognized CC80 as a suspected sockpuppet of AWilliamson, who was community banned today as the Joan of Arc vandal. At WP:AN#Ethics_of_banning_socks I've queried about banning that particular account and other strongly suspected socks as listed at User:Highest-Authority-on-Joan-of-Arc-Related-Scholarship/AWilliamson sock puppets. While the other suspected socks on this RFCU request don't raise the same red flags for me, this vandal has been very creative and evaded policy enforcement for over two years. I think blanking vandalism and edit warrring by that account raise this to at least a C class request. Recent examples follow of a pattern I first noticed in September (diffs for the September blanks are at the WP:AN post).[8][9][10][11][12][13] DurovaCharge! 05:20, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Note: I think the best way here would be to file a new request on Awilliamson, listing this among any other recently active socks (recent = active within a month of today) and explaining (as briefly as possible) the circumstances that led to the community ban and the reason for believing the user is a sock. Really in-depth explanation isn't necessary, just enough so we can say "Yeah, there's enough to this to merit checking." Essjay (Talk) 21:50, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Are you suggesting Akhilleus change his request posted above? DurovaCharge! 22:12, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
No, I'm suggesting you file a new request on the AWilliamson socks. Essjay (Talk) 22:22, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Akhilleus has those bases covered for the time being. DurovaCharge! 00:26, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
