:I am not Rienzo. I have these pages on my watchlist (I follow many Arbritration cases), and when I saw [[user:Curps|Curps']] edit summary "(Reverted edits by CheeseDreams to last version by Sandor)" I decided to take a look. I saw that nobody had yet presented the reversions as evidence, I decided to do so. My edit to this page was at 08:07, over 30 minutes late than the reversion [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ARequests_for_arbitration%2FCheeseDreams_2%2FEvidence&diff=10350419&oldid=10350401]


*I am not [[User:Rienzo]], and I explicitly invite the arbitration committee to investigate this. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Thryduulf my contribution history], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Rienzo Rienzo's contribution history]. It can be noted that we have never both edited the same page (with the singular exception of one edit each to [[User:RickK|RickK's]] user talk page [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:RickK&diff=prev&oldid=7235744 Rienzo's edit (July 2004 - 6 months before my first ever edit)], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:RickK&diff=prev&oldid=9470084 my edit (Jan 2005)]).

====Thryduulf's response to CheeseDreams' Response====
====Thryduulf's response to CheeseDreams' Response====
Taking the points separately (and in no particular order):
*username:
My user name is Anglo-Saxon rather than Scandinavian and has the following story behind it: Ages (years) ago a new forum was set up for fans of history and archaeology, because some members of an existing forum were sick of all the off-topic postings (this site is now sadly defunct). For some reason the regulars all chose historical names, prinicpally Roman. The Romans have never been a particular interest of mine, and wanting to be a bit different I decided to go with an Anglo-Saxon name (I'm English, btw). I searched the net for Anglo-Saxon names, and found a site (I've not been able to find this online now) with a huge list of them, I browsed the list and decided I liked the look of the name Thryduulf, and so I chose that as my username. I've used it intermittently since. My other (more regular) username is [[user:Awkward42|Awkward42]] (because I am awkward, and as Awkward was taken at hotmail, I chose Awkward42 (42 being [[The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything]]). [[User:Awkward42]] on here is also me, as I have clearly explained on both user pages.


*timing of first edit (boxing day 2004):
pure coincidence. Truly there is nothing more to it than this. I have been browsing Wikipedia for some time, and that was the time that I came accross something I wanted to respond to (the ''Self desctructive sub-cultures'' section of the [[Internet]] article''), and decided to register then.


===19 Feb 2005 - Accusations of sockpuppetry===
*09:49
**[[User:65.161.54.104]] edits this page to comment on the evidence I presented relating to the 17 Feb 2005. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ARequests_for_arbitration%2FCheeseDreams_2%2FEvidence&diff=10421537&oldid=10421452]. In this edit I am accused of being a sockpuppet of [[User:Rienzo]]. This edit is signed [[User:CheeseDreams|CheeseDreams]].


*09:52
*IP address:
**[[User:65.161.65.104]] puts a note on my talk page that implicitly accuses me of being a sockpuppet of [[User:Rienzo]] (confirmed by the 09:49 edit to this page, above). [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AThryduulf&diff=0&oldid=10421519]. The edit was signed [[user:CheeseDreams|CheeseDreams]].
my IP Address is currently 80.46.169.211 (as reported by http://www.whatismyip.net). I am currently editing from my home computer, which is connected to Tiscali's broadband network in the UK. I don't know if that IP is static, dynamic or a proxy.
I have also eddited from work ([[Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs]]). I don't know what my IP address is there, but a ping to defra.gov.uk gives the ip 148.252.1.40 so I assume it will be something similar to that. Next week I will be staying with my uncle, and may do some editing from there. I don't know what his internet connection is, but that will be a different IP (one I've never edited wikipedia from before).


*10:16
*immediacy of response:
**I responded to the comments on my talk page and this page, and added the 09:52 evidence above. I also denied the accusation and invited the Arbitration committee to examine the claim and provided links to the contribution histories of myself (Thryduulf) and Rienzo. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/CheeseDreams_2/Evidence&diff=next&oldid=10421929].
When the message on my talk page was posted, I was editing the proposed re-working of [[List of songs whose title includes geographical names]] at [[user:Thryduulf/Geonamesongs]]. Doing this involves looking up lots of place name articles, and so I saw the orange 'You have new messages' banner very soon after you posted. When I finished the section I was working on (English Ph-Pz) I read the message and responded. After this afternoon I will only have intermittent access to the internet unitl Thursday evening (all GMT) and so I needed to get it done.


*10:17 - 10:19
*similarity of behaviour to Rienzo:
**I made a succession of minor ammendments to the layout and phrasing of my above response: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/CheeseDreams_2/Evidence&diff=10421964&oldid=10421947] , [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/CheeseDreams_2/Evidence&diff=next&oldid=10421964] & [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/CheeseDreams_2/Evidence&diff=next&oldid=10422001].
I don't know what Rienzo's edits are like or what his or her behaviour has been, outside of comments in this RFAr. The check of contribution histories shows we've never been involved with the same article (see below) so I've never come accross them previously.


*10:35
*persuit of CheeseDreams
**[[User:65.161.65.104]] reponds to my response above by giving an explanation in more detail of why they beleive I am a sockpuppet of [[User:Rienzo]] and signs the edit [[User:CheeseDreams]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/CheeseDreams_2/Evidence&diff=next&oldid=10422288]. The allegations can be summarised as:
I deny that I have been persuing you. I follow many RFAr cases, and if I can provide any evidence to the committee I do so (as is specifically asked). Previous to this case I had no interaction with you at all.
***I made my first edit around the time [[User:CheeseDreams]] first accused [[user:Rienzo]] of sockpuppetry.
***I have the same behaviour as Rienzo, specifically I have a high anger level and am in persuit of [[user:CheeseDreams]].
***That it is easy for her to tell I'm a sockpuppet because she is skilled in analysing text sources.
***That my having a Scandinavian username is telling (because [[user:Rienzo]] is Sweedish).
**She also commented that it would be interesting to know what my IP was.

**I provided detailed responses to her above points [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/CheeseDreams_2/Evidence&diff=next&oldid=10423041]
You asked for opinions from non-admin and non-arbcom members. I fit the criteria, and so gave mine.

Revision as of 12:27, 19 February 2005

Anyone, whether directly involved or not, may add evidence to this page. Please make a header for your evidence and sign your comments with your name.

When placing evidence here, please be considerate of the arbitrators and be concise. Long, rambling, or stream-of-conciousness rants are not helpful.

As such, it is extremely important that you use the prescribed format. Submitted evidence should include a link to the actual page diff; links to the page itself are not sufficient. For example, to cite the edit by Mennonot to the article Anomalous phenomenon adding a link to Hundredth Monkey use this form: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Anomalous_phenomenon&diff=0&oldid=5584644] [1].

This page is not for general discussion - for that, see talk page.

Please make a section for your evidence and add evidence only in your own section. Please limit your evidence to a maximum 1000 words and 100 diffs, a much shorter, concise presentation is more likely to be effective. Please focus on the issues raised in the complaint and answer and on diffs which illustrate behavior which relates to the issues.

If you disagree with some evidence you see here, please cite the evidence in your own section and provide counter-evidence, or an explanation of why the evidence is misleading. Do not edit within the evidence section of any other user.

Be aware that the Arbitrators may at times rework this page to try to make it more coherent. If you are a participant in the case or a third party, please don't try to refactor the page, let the Arbitrators do it. If you object to evidence which is inserted by other participants or third parties please cite the evidence and voice your objections within your own section of the page. It is especially important to not remove evidence presented by others. If something is put in the wrong place, please leave it for the arbitrators to move.

Evidence presented by Sandor

Trolling and vandalizing user pages on Swedish Wikipedia

User:CheeseDreams has used several IP's to vandalize user pages on Swedish Wikipedia, e.g. from 81.156.183.69, 81.156.92.59 and 81.156.180.239, see evidence [2]. See also discussion about this [3].

CheeseDreams continues to troll user pages [4]

[comments moved to talk by sannse (talk) 11:56, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)]

Apparently CheeseDreams sees sock puppets everywhere. CD vandalized my user and talk page repeatedly on February 13th. He has also removed or edited my comments on other talk pages. This has got to stop, people! Sandor 02:36, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Evidence presented by Ta bu shi da yu

29 January - ArbCom request against Slrubenstein

  • 14:47, 1 Feb 2005
    • Arbitrator Ambi rejects request and notes that she "condemn[s] what is becoming a blatant misuse of this page."
  • 14:53, 1 Feb 2005
    • Rejected by mav, who states that "This is starting to look a lot like harassment against Sl."

1 February - harassing Ta bu shi da yu

  • 09:34, 1 Feb 2005
    • Posts a message to Ta bu shi da yu's talk page stating that Ta bu shi da yu is a "literalist christian" (unsure what that means) and a "fundamentalist". Evidently did not recieve a reply that satisfied her from User:Dante Alighieri as she asks Ta bu shi da yu "Curiously, the IP address 67.15.54.16 is based in Melbourne, Australia, and I remember TBSDY claiming that they were in Australia. I wonder, TBSDY, do you speak Swedish?". The accusation is that TBSDY is using Rienzo as a sockpuppet. For the record, TBSDY neither speaks Swedish nor lives in Melbourne.

[comments moved to talk by sannse (talk) 11:56, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)]

Please note: without a developer I cannot be certain that the posts from Special:Contributions/81.156.182.159 is CheeseDreams. I am presenting this as evidence because I strongly suspect that this is CheeseDreams, mainly because I've seen her post from this netblock before (it's is a BT cable IP address) and because of the response at [5].

  • 06:41, 3 Feb 2005
    • Sends a message to Rd232 stating that Ta bu shi da yu is performing POV edits. States (with regards to The Jesus Mysteries that "Also note that Freke & Gandy's book was regarded by the Daily Telegraph as "an erudite and well researched book stuffed with controversial ideas", and so inserting only the CNN viewpoint is a heavy and POV attempt to discredit it." - however, Ta bu shi da yu did not remove this material. (Ta bu shi da yu did remove unsourced books, however, from Historicity of Jesus due to significant POV bias and no real evidence of them being used in the article - no sources were cited! Those inline sources that are now in the text were mostly put in by Ta bu shi da yu.)

1 February - harasses Bacchiad

[comments moved to talk by sannse (talk) 11:56, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)]

  • 14:04, 10 Feb 2005
    • Her answer, on User:Bacchiad's talk page, is "No." Clear evidence of willingness to harass people through accusations they are sock puppets.
  • 14 Feb 2005
    • CheeseDreams removed a copyvio from the article and made a personal attack against myself: "TBSDY, you have been working on this article for months, and invited people to assist you. Strange how there is nothing here then." For the record, I don't actually have to work on my focus article if I don't wish to. - Ta bu shi da yu 01:50, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Evidence presented by Thryduulf

17 Feb 2005 - Page blanking in this RFAr


Explanation of above by CheeseDreams

On 14th February 2005, I (CheeseDreams), gave Rienzo my password, doing so on Rienzo's talk page. Any edit claiming to be by me (CheeseDreams) since then is likely to be Rienzo, or someone else.

In particular, due to the speed of reversion of the above, I note that the only person who would really know about the page blanking apart from Curps would be Rienzo (or whoever logged in to my account if it was not Rienzo). Since Thryduulf presents the evidence, then this leads to the conclusion that Thryduulf is a Rienzo sockpuppet.

Reponse by Thryduulf

Response to the response by CheeseDreams

If you are not Rienzo, then how come your first edit was around the same time that I discovered Rienzo's sockpuppets, and brought arbitration against Rienzo with the inevitable consequence of his being banned, and thus needing some other account to perform edits?

You also have a behavioural pattern identical to Reinzo, in particular, pursuit of CheeseDreams, as well as the anger level you exhibit (see your comment on the RFAR page on 14th of February), and also the immediacy and urgency with which you seem to react to my accusation of sockpuppetry (e.g. see the User:Sandor sock puppet for an example of this).

Remember, the skill of textual criticism to tell sources apart, and identify others, is something that is characteristic of the contributions to articles about sources that I have been editing. It is very easy for me to spot sockpuppetry.

It would be interesting to know what your IP address was. And also why you have a scandinavian username (remember, Rienzo is from Sweden).
