Suspected sockpuppets
Evidence submitted by Mister Flash

HighKing is concerned with the removal of British Isles and the majority of his edits are involved with this issue. HighKing did not edit between 3 March 2010 and 10 March 2010. On 8 March the IP, located in New York, made a series of edits all of which removed British Isles. Disregard those that have taken place on 6 June. The behavioural aspects of this appear convincing on their own. In particular, this edit involves a direct interaction between HighKing and the IP.

I have further evidence, which for privacy reasons cannot be displayed here. This evidence adds to the behavioural traits mentioned, and is quite conclusive. Please advise how I can confidentially submit this evidence.

Popaice displays a similar modus operandi to HighKing, with edit summaries not reflecting the actual edit.

Insectgirl displays similar editing habits in that some edits remove British Isles as an incidental part of a larger edit. Also, If HighKing's Talk page at the time of Insectgirl's activity is comapared with that of Insectgirl's there are striking similarities. Insectgirl's monobook settings [1] are virtually identical to those of HighKing at the time of Insectgirl's activity [2]. Mister Flash (talk) 20:19, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This editor has been harassing me for nearly a year. It mostly consists of a campaign to revert my edits. His behavior has escalated since I filed an AN/I and commented on an SPI case involving the same pair of editors. Most recently he has sent me an email threatening to out an identity which he believes to be mine. Furthermore, the editor should really look up what a sock puppet actually is, because I don't see what the IP editor has done that could possibly warrant being called a sock... --HighKing (talk) 20:07, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
