• Code letter: G
• Supporting evidence:
  • 222.165.9.229 made this edit, a hallmark of ColourWolf vandalism. He also did this, another hallmark of ColourWolf vandalism consisting of superhuman powers and manga fighting.
  • 222.165.6.232 left this test message on a known ColourWolf sockpuppet, supposedly to test out the page.
  • 222.165.6.132 made this edit, yet another hallmark of ColourWolf edits.
  • 222.165.2.81 was involved in the now deleted Bookworn Short Stories editing, which was only edited by ColourWolf and his sockpupet cohorts.
  • 203.116.59.28 added these rubbish barely a day after another ColourWolf vandal added a fake storyline.
  • Although 202.128.188.103's edits are not vandalism, his edit summaries are way too detailed, which could be yet another hallmark of ColourWolf vandals: good accounts turning bad like computer viruses at a certain time.

Checkuser is not for fishing. Besides, most of these are stale. Thatcher 11:18, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• ColourWolf (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)
• EvilRedEye (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)
• Orpheus the Musician (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)
• Code letter: G
• Supporting evidence:
  • Username for EvilRedEye matches User:ColourWolf and RedEyes and User:RedEyesForever, both of which are ColourWolf vandals. User also have somewhat similar edits to the vandals.
  • Orpheus the Musician, based on his edits (focus solely on MediaCorp drama pages, and insertion of blatantly fake contents with mentions of superhuman powers, in addition to cartoon and manga references, look at his contribs for more details.) is a textbook example of a ColourWolf vandal.

• Likely that KalarWuff == Orpheus the Musician and also Nosey Fellow (talk · contribs), Elemental of Truth (talk · contribs), OriginalOdin (talk · contribs) and Zero of any heroes (talk · contribs) but check the contribs before blocking.
• EvilRedEye appears to be Unrelated. Thatcher 01:52, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
  • If that is the case, I would like the appropriate admins to block those who match. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 04:26, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ColourWolf

• Code letter: G
• Supporting evidence: Claims to be the vandal ColourWolf, and advocates for the same thing ColourWolf advocated: massive deletion of pages on Singaporean topics due to their supposed non-notability.

See above. This user has not contested any suspicions that he is a sockpuppet of a vandal, yet another hallmark of ColourWolf's sockpuppets (who would even proclaim they are ColourWolf). Arbiteroftruth (talk) 06:13, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Confirmed - Nosey Fellow (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log)

Clerk note: blocked the confirmed one. I let someone more familiar with the case deal with the other. -- lucasbfr ^talk 10:50, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Regardless of whether KalarWuff is a sock or not, the username is in direct violation of acceptable username policy. Intentional or not, KalarWuff is an impersonator of ColourWolf, at the very least. This means he would need to be blocked anyway. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 01:45, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

These batch of users have been making malicious edits (or making minor edits in tandem with these malicious editors) on Singaporean TV drama show pages, a specialty for the ColourWolf vandal. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 23:22, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Confirmed - all of them. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 00:46, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Description: Vandalism of various MediaCorp drama pages. Vandalism patterns similar to ColourWolf. Arbiteroftruth 04:44, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Additional information needed - we're going to need a bit more than this. Sorry - Alison ^❤ 05:27, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

I've looked into this, and I decided that there exists a legitimate basis for suspicion. Both editors have made many edits to Honour and Passion and other Chinese topics during October 2007, and both have been involved in revert wars. I'm not sure, but it does seem to be worth a look. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 18:22, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Sure, but can you provide so diffs, etc, to back up the claims here? Checkuser is a last-resort measure, really, as it involves personal information so some justification is required - Alison ^❤ 23:50, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

On further review, I'll suggest that you decline this request. The two editors have somewhat different styles in approaching Honour and Passion - one make major edits, the other one mostly minor edits. There was one point at which Colourwolf inserted a large block of text, then Besteditorever changed the section headings in the new text twelve minutes later on October 7, 2007. That's the only "suspicious" looking behavior I saw. Both accounts are pretty much inactive. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 18:30, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Declined - per request - Alison ^❤ 19:33, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Unnecessary - blatant sock, already blocked indef - Alison ^❤ 09:27, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it is obvious, but just make sure the IP is blocked, this guy jumps around a bit. Voice-of-All 17:47, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

The underlying IP has been blocked for quite some time anon-only, but as it's a large gateway, that's about as good as it gets - Alison ^❤ 18:12, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

These three user and IPs have vandalized the Honour and Passion and Wu Cheng Yi page with fake storylines and false references. They deliberately inserted fake materials, and are vandalizing the page. Arbiteroftruth 14:01, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Declined. If this is really vandalism, it just needs an admin to block or protect. Dmcdevit·t 23:23, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

APPEAL: If an admin actually cared or bothered to care, I won't be here, would I? These people have been reducing the veracity of many of the MediaCorp pages and reducing Wikipedia's reputation. This is the exact problems we are battling: fake contents. Yet, everyone thinks this is just a fight. Someone needs to do something! Arbiteroftruth 03:17, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Concur with Dmcdevit. Aside from that, there's nothing we can do as checkusers here. Checkusers have the ability to view the IPs a user has used; if you already know the IP, there's nothing a checkuser can do that an administrator can't. --Deskana (talk) 13:40, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
