[edit] Pwok

  • Code letter: A, B, C, D
  • Supporting evidence: see below. Many diffs.

User:Pwok and his verified socks User:Truthjusticeamericanway and User:Charles Wilson 4000, and IP addresses 71.231.140.80 and 24.18.130.89 have been a long-time source of disruption on Matt Sanchez, and now that the case is in arbitration, IP address 69.76.37.158 (unable to participate due to semi-protection) and new User:Tennessee Jed 4415, whose new user period just ended, have picked up where the others have left off. Pwok is Charles Wilson, who operates a site which is solely devoted to destroying Sanchez.

All the addresses show similar hallmarks, such as the single-purpose nature of the accounts (only Pwok's account has any edits not relating to Sanchez; they are about James Kim, about whom he also runs an attack site), All of the accounts demonstrate extreme hatred of User:Elonka, all of them refer to abusive e-mails allegedly sent to Wilson by Elonka, use similar idiosyncratic verbiage ("backchannel communications", "Wikipedia's senior administrators", reference to Wikipedia's five pillars without demonstrating any understanding of them), a fixation on the number of films in which Sanchez appeared, and in the case of all but 69.76.37.158, an inability to use the preview function, resulting in a flood of edits to tweak a word or two at a time. 69.76 might be a meatpuppet (or an open proxy), as Pwok has stated that he lives in Seattle, and both of the other IP addresses resolve to Comcast in Seattle, while 69.76 is a Road Runner IP in Wisconsin, but it's possible that Tenn Jed was created by a friend (since Pwok's IP is still blocked) and is now being used by Pwok.

I would request an expedited check here, because he is now posting in the AFD for the article and the Arbritration case, and being quite disruptive.

(Note: Pwok, Truthjusticeamericanway, IP address 71.231.140.80 and IP address 24.18.130.89 are all likely to be stale, as there are no recent contributions from any of them; the two named users are indef-blocked, and 24.18 received a 6 month block in late September 2007. However, they have been included for historical and comparative purposes. Charles Wilson 4000, also indef-blocked, is a recently blocked editor who self-identifies as Pwok.

Clerk note: Pwok, Chales Wilson 4000 and User:Truthjusticeamericanway are all presently indef blocked. -JodyB talk 20:00, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Last night, User:Tennessee Jed 4415 was indefinitely blocked for posting e-mails onto Wikipedia, but I would prefer to have the checkuser confirm a relationship (if any). Horologium (talk) 13:33, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Charles Wilson 4000 is Likely Pwok, but you already knew that. Other results are stale or Inconclusive. There is no technical evidence tying Tennessee Jed 4415 to Pwok, but his edits were certainly blockable offenses. Thatcher 03:39, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
