IP above is claiming to be User:Eric Corbett, who is currently the subject of a potential ArbCom case. This is not a sockpuppet investigation against Eric, but an attempt to disprove this likely joe job as just that so this does not poison the well and inflame tensions. Please swiftly close if this is inappropriate. Toa Nidhiki05 20:57, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Checkusers won't run a check on a user <--> IP address basis, so this isn't going to "disprove" anything. Blocked the IP for trolling - it's obviously impersonation. ST47 (talk) 21:07, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

- @Toa Nidhiki05: In general, an SPI should only be opened if you have positive evidence of sockpuppetry. If you believe that a user is impersonating another editor, then in the future I would report that to a location like WP:AIV if it is obvious, or alternatively WP:ANI.
