• 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.

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)

This RFCU is a duplicate of Reddi, which is listed. Therefore, this request probably does not need to be listed.--Chaser - T 00:04, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Xenophrenic

An arbitration case last year involving myself and another anonymous user resulted in revert parole for the both of us. User Xenophrenic has performed edits on only one page, and in a similar manner to the Anon. List of known IP’s are very long, but well documented: [7]. If the anon and Xenophrenic are in fact the same individuals, they are subject to administrative sanctions for this behavior as Xenophrenic has violated the arbcom ruling.

Likely. He's switched to Earthlink DSL now. Might mean a narrower range of IPs in the future. --jpgordon^∇∆∇∆ 16:23, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

I was directed here by a message left on my talk page. Be advised that I am not, and have not been a participant in arbitration cases, nor have I ever been banned from Wikipedia, as the above editor has suggested. For the record, I have not "switched to Earthlink DSL now." I have used this account for years; a fact easily verified through Earthlink customer service. There is {{likely}} a mistake being made here, or possibly something more mischievous?
