[edit] Requests for IP check

  • Vandal and attack accounts may be listed here for the purpose of identifying and blocking the underlying IP address or open proxy. Requests to confirm sockpuppets of known users should be listed in the sockpuppet section above.
  • If you already know the IP address of the suspected open proxy, list it at Wikipedia:Open Proxies instead.
  • Use === Subsections ===; do not create subpages.
  • List user names using the {{checkuser|username}} template. Add new reports to the top of the section.
  • Requests may be acted on or declined according to the discretion of the checkuser admins. Responses will be noted here. Specific evidence of abuse in the form of diffs may be required so as to avoid the impression of fishing for evidence.
  • Answered requests will be moved to Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/IP check/Archive for 7 days, after which they will be deleted. No separate archive (other than the page history) will be maintained.

[edit] More Avril Lavigne Vandal

[edit] Cooner&0908 and Wishess2m

It's pretty obvious that these are tag-team spam socks: each has made a single edit, with one asking about a commercial product at the computing reference desk and the other providing a blatantly promotional answer 20 minutes later. What I'd like to know is whether there are more; also, the IP might merit blocking. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 17:28, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Confirmed but nothing else on that IP. 2 edits does not seem worth getting worked up over as yet. Thatcher 03:43, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
