[edit] PublicSafetyOfficer

  • Code letter: A, C, possibly G

The previous request involved PublicSafetyOfficer (talk · contribs), ACCREDITATION OFFICER (talk · contribs) and PODIATRIC SURGICAL TECHNICIAN (talk · contribs), who had all made "dubious edits" (lets put it politely) to the article Podiatry (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs). See the archive of this request for more information. Since then, a load of probable sockpuppets has appeared:

They are probably so obvious that they don't need to be CheckUsered. But the CheckUser info on these accounts could provide some data for the final two accounts in this request, which are a bit less obvious:

Even though I find it hard to believe that these last two accounts would appear on this article out of the blue, making the same edits as the obvious socks, with a username so similar to mine (impersonator accounts?), I need more evidence of sockpuppetry. Hence this request for CheckUser. AecisBrievenbus 21:48, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Unnecessary. Obvious socks, to me. --Deskana (talk) 21:07, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PublicSafetyOfficer

  • Code letter: C

For the past couple of weeks, these accounts have popped up at the Podiatry (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) and Podiatrist (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) pages and basically whitewashed it to complain about the state of Australian podiatrists in the US or something like that. I feel that it is necessary to root out who may be behind all of this and to possibly prevent further similar abuse in the future.—Ryūlóng () 00:15, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Note: All on different IPs, but plenty of this sort of thing going on. I'm blocking account creation and anonymous edits from all of them. Essjay (Talk) 02:15, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
