Suspected sockpuppets


The editor Hi Balloon Boy's edits match the sort of behavior of the User:JB50000 and User:Judith Merrick socks. The copy and pasting of other editors comments into pages of other editors Talk pages, and then making pointy edits on other articles because the editor felt slighted, is done by both the Judith Merrick account and Hi Balloon Boy account.

  • Judith Merrick "Routine sorry"(1,2,3,4)
  • Hi Balloon Boy "Reasons why" 1

All have long periods of inactivity, with their main focus on Obama related articles, all editing with the same type of disruptive style.

Taking up same edits as Hi Balloon Boy while latter editor proclaims "Retired" or blocked.(1,2) The 'self-imposed' break from editing Obama or other related articles.

Also, all editors have the same feigned outrage at other editors and make claims that only they are neutral while everyone else is a Obama campaign worker. I would ask for just a duck block, but this user seems proficient in ip hopping, even if they are less skiled at hiding the same posting patterns/styles.

Comments by other users

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims. I am not anywhere near Denver. The real reason for the complaint is that they want to eliminate anyone with good suggestions for the articles. My suggestions are neither for or against Obama. Scjessey David Dial and Tarc are political hacks and should be investigated for meatpuppetry. BAMP (talk) 18:23, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 Clerk note: Gaydenver is very likely to be  Stale considering the last check run on a confirmed account was back in 2010. No comment on running a check between the two socks listed though. Alexandria (talk) 18:18, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not much to see, unfortunately. All of the previous socks are indeed stale. BAMP and Hi Balloon Boy are in the same geographic area using open wifi/public terminals. Heli v de luna (talk · contribs) was created a few days before Hi Balloon Boy on the same IP, but should not be blocked until they edit (goes back to the public terminal bit).

I am more polite than Mr. Boy. That is behavioral proof that I am not that person. Besides, all my suggestions are to improve Wikipedia content. They are very good suggestions. To drag me in is hostile. BAMP (talk) 18:26, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am NOT using WiFi. I am using my own computer plugged into the internet. BAMP (talk) 18:28, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
