[edit] Nixwisser

REDVERS, an Administrator working with the Fellowship of Friends page, indicated that there is sockpuppetry happening and indicated these links as a proof: [1] [2]. Mfantoni 22:01, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Clerk note: Merged Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Babycondor, Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Unicorn144, Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Veronicapoe with this case, removed IP, checkusers won't comment on them. -- lucasbfr talk 22:13, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Clerk note: merging Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Wine-in-ark, since the same diffs are provided, removed IP. I must admit I am a bit lost here. -- lucasbfr talk 12:57, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
What about Nixwisser and Babycondor? Those are the names on the diffs. Thanks. Mfantoni 16:32, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Lucas. Who is going to do the checkuser of the diffs above? Mario Fantoni 17:15, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Confirmed that Nixwisser (talk · contribs) and Wine-in-ark (talk · contribs) are the same user. Mackensen (talk) 15:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, Mackensen. Mfantoni 16:54, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Mario and everybody. This is Wine in Ark. Nixwisser is sitting here next to me having his lunch. You see, Wikipedia sockpuppet detector is severely limited. I suppose that since Nixwisser and I are both on the same LAN, we transmit the same IP, and so we appear to Wikipedia as the same person. Well, no way to prove over the internet that there is two of us. But Mario could always come over for lunch and count us. See: one, two.

If anyone used two different internet connections when posting under different names, or even terminated their dialup connection and then dialed-up again, they would never be recognized as the same user. Whereas there can be a local area network connecting to the internet through one modem, and if users are contributors to the Wikipedia and happen to have a similar outlook on the matter, they will be declared sockpuppets. So Nixwisser and I are obviously just a single stupid person who can't even cover up his tracks. Yaay! You win, Mario.

Good luck to this article. And P.S., my name is not Jason either. Wine-in-ark 23:17, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
