Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Samiharris, One editor is using "open proxies" Options

[Kato]

Here's a link to the check user made on

# Samiharris (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)
# Mantanmoreland (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Req...Case/Samiharris

Conclusion:

I don't for a minute think that Palabrazo [who made the request] is a curious bystander who just happened across this request. However, based on the standards I usually use, and pretending I don't know the history here, the evidence is sufficient to run a check. The answer is Inconclusive because one of these editors has only edited via open proxies. Thatcher 01:57, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Didn't Armed Blowfish get banned for edited via open proxies?

Entertaining as it is watching the usual subjects pile on, it now is appropriate for us to watch quietly from the sidelines. There are some familiar names there who are fighting for the good name of Wikipedia (not for WR even if inspired by WR) for their own reasons. Let's not undermine their efforts by inappropriate comments (edit: not directed at anyone, inc. WB).


...But George is a gem, isn't he?

Good point, well taken.

But one last thing: will someone please encourage MONGO to "refactor" this "history of fabrication of evidence" bullshit? I don't think he has any idea what he's saying. Just please ask him to back that up with a single shred of anything other than JzG spittle.

Let's not forget Fred Bauder's comment that he was socking and then he "quit."

You mean Thatcher.

As in my sig.

As in the lying scum who is doing gymnastics to close up any CU. Funny how that works.

Lar seems to be the only admin being allowed to opine on this matter that wasn't already compromised by previous actions (Baudy, Thatcher, SlumVersion, FloByNight, etc).

Note all the diversion by the BritneySpears-stage JzG (never go public when under personal distress - Chris Crocker vids to "leave Manny Moresocks alone! pending). So.....Samiharris uses a proxy.

Why?

Because he is Mantanmoreland. And a good checkuser will find IP evidence of that. Sami surely didn't edit under a different proxy than Manny every time.

Since the late January brou-ha-ha? Sure, I'll wager he was very very careful. Before? He was the belle of the untouchable ball, and anyone with any balls will find common IP editing between those two if they go back far enough.

Spineless wonders abound in WP Adminville. And you should step forward (more than you already have to your credit) Alison.

When one is in the right with the facts, might does not make right.
