[edit] Tyler111

Excessive trolling in the following and related talk pages: Talk:Japan, Talk:Hideyoshi's invasions of Korea, Talk:Balhae, Talk:Hwacha. And a few POV edits as well, as in Dokdo by Koreanonly (talk · contribs). They may be multiple editors working together.--Endroit 17:27, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Straw man sock puppetery is highly suspected, particularly in Talk:Japan. 222.233.205.83 and 222.233.205.158 are suspected of being "straw man sock puppets". There may be others on this list.--Endroit 10:07, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
I've caught 4.23.83.100 voting for Tyler111 [here]. 4.23.83.100 has warnings on his talk page for POV edits.--Endroit 17:27, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
222.233.205.83 has been blocked recently for trolling. And Wikimachine has been blocked before for using an IP address to vandalize.--Endroit 18:20, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
  • If people are logging out (or forgetting to login) and then making the same edits that's obvious and you don't need a check. Do you also allege that the named accounts are controlled by the same person (independent of the IP addresses)? Mackensen (talk) 01:28, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Although ALL of these users are disruptive, I know my evidences are sketchy. So first let me cross out the ones which have slightly different edit patterns. (Feel free to add them back in if they happen to be related, though.)

Recently, the following users (and IPs) caused visible disruption, and they appear to be anti-Japanese and/or anti-Korean in nature. I would like to know if they are related to each other, and if they have any other related accounts:

I suspect the following users (and IP) to be related to the above, but please correct me if I'm wrong, and rename the main user if necessary:

Please also check this list against previously banned Appleby (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser), just in case, although Tyler111 was already declared NOT a sockpuppet of Appleby. Deiaemeth and Appleby have been meatpuppets for a long time (if not sockpuppets).

If checkuser does not work here, may I ask you for suggestions on how to prevent disruption from these users? Otherwise I'm sure other editors would like to know who's behind the disruptions, and if any of the regular trollers are related. Thank you for your help.--Endroit 04:21, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

I noticed this request and thought it might be worth noting that this isn't simply a case of "forgetting to log in" but more of using socks to get avoid policies. Here we can see an alternating pattern to avoid 3RR problems:
If you poke around, I'm sure there are more cases of this. The talk page edits seem to try to suggest more editors are in favor of his policies than really are. —LactoseTIT 04:32, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Confirmed that Appleby2 and Koreanonly are the same user. No obvious relationship between the other accounts at this time. Mackensen (talk) 14:11, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
