[edit] Reddi 2

• Multiple IP’s [1]
• Code Letter: G and B[2]

For several years, there has been a user contributing under several anonymous IP’s. under several anonymous IP’s While editing under those IP’s he was responsible for multiple edit wars across several articles, all related to the Vietnam War, and this behavior eventually became the subject of an arbitration case. The user was also engaged in repeated and gross violation of Copyright rules.

The Reason given for him not logging was simple, it was an “experiment”:

“My not logging in under my registered psuedonym - please don't let that be a distraction from the real issues here. Almost 2 years ago there was an argument that resulted in a challenge to me, which then resulted in a little experiment, which is presently ongoing. I beg you to humor me on this. On a Wikipedia that claims anyone (even the unregistered) may contribute, and prides itself on the content of articles, not the contributors of them, this should not be an issue. I will continue to remain not logged in, while reserving my logging in for voting and other procedural matters as required.”[3]

I could provide much more anecdotal and circumstantial evidence on why I believe that the previously mentioned Anon, is User:Reddi, and is also the SPA User:Xenophrenic, but it all comes from off Wiki websites, which may reveal personal details about User:Reddi that may or may not be a violation of his privacy. If you feel this is not the case, I am more than willing to provide the information either here or via an email.

I think it would be safe to say this: any edit made by Xenophrenic/Reddi from 4/7 to 7/30 came from NYC, and anything after came from Florida.

Reddi, also has been involved in several disputes [4] and apparantly Reddi is under Rv parole [5]. Torturous Devastating Cudgel 16:55, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

User:Reddi was banned by an arbcom decision from contentious editting on certain pages. User:Rotating magnetic field looks like a sockpuppet created to evade this. ScienceApologist 21:13, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Declined. Requests related to Arbitration decisions are best directed to the Arbitration Committee, which has an ample supply of available checkusers and a better understanding of the subject matter. Essjay (Talk • Connect) 09:07, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 204.56.7.1 and Reddi

Any chance of User:204.56.7.1 against User:Reddi? Reddi is arbcomm-limited, and 204 edits much like Reddi and is potentially skirting those restrictions. William M. Connolley 21:48, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
