Prostatitis is being edit warred over by 2 editors each accusing the other over the use of external links supposedly owned or managed by the other.

User:Skoppensboer is heading for a block under WP:NPA (for these) and possibly a warning over WP:COI if the allegation that he is indeed the owner of the external link he is trying to protect is true.

However, to be fair, I agree that edits 31 Oct & 2 Aug by User:165.166.193.82 with the further removal of the external link, looks like sockpuppetry by User:Reasonablelogicalman to further an edit war and thus hide from possible accusation/action under revert-warring and WP:3RR (there aren't 3 reverts in 24hrs, but I would threaten to block if further revert-warring continues as this is proving disruptive).

I seek checkuser to help clarify situation if Reasonablelogicalman is using sockpuppets to further an edit war. If so then i'll apply a short block for this disruption (given also that accused of WP:MEAT off-site), and I need to ensure I can fairly take firm action, if required, against either of these 2 editors (I have a horrible feeling one or other of them is going to RfArb if we can't put a firm break on the dispute).

Unnecessary. This seems like a clear case to me. The IP is clearly the same user as the account in question, on behaviour alone. --Deskana (talk) 15:49, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
