Statement by Metta Bubble (intended for original ARBCOM case regarding Rgulerdem)

If this was the 1st time I would say RFC would be enough. However, this is the 5th major edit dispute Rgulerdem's been involved in since joining Wikipedia in January.

The case against Rgulerdem includes: Wikipedia:Harassment of editors/admins, Wikipedia:Ownership of censorship and decency related pages, WP:POINT violations, and recurring WP:3RR violations, as well as recurring Wikipedia:Sockpuppet violations. His actions are consuming vast resources from users and administrators on an ongoing basis. The diffs below show that since he joined Wikipedia in January he has harassed, reverted and taken ownership in all spaces (he has had 12 blocks in 2 months). He is now beginning to post false admin notices and post messages impersonating registered users. A poll was started under WP:DR to resolve conflicts centering around Rgulerdem because discussion failed. He manipulated the poll to confuse users. And he continued to do so after multiple admin warnings and while blocked. His escalating poor behaviour is unaffected by all remedies thus far (discussion, WP:DR, polls, admin warnings, blocks).

His edit count is:

• 12 Blocks in 2 months

• Highest main space contribution (a revert war on Fethullah Gülen)
  • [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] blocked 17 January 2006

• Second highest main space contribution (a revert war on Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy)
  • [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] blocked 2-3 February 2006

• Highest project talk space contribution (2 revert wars on Wikipedia_talk:Wikiethics)
  • 1st war [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] + sockpuppeting (see below) blocked 17-20 March 2006
  • 2nd war [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] blocked 20-21 March 2006

• Second highest project space contribution (2 false notices on WP:AN/3RR)
  • [36] 2006/03/20 and 2006/03/21

• Third highest project space contribution (2 false notices on WP:AN)
  • [37] 2006/03/20 and 2006/03/21

• Fourth highest project space contribution (a revert war on Wikipedia_talk:Censorship)
  • [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] not blocked 4 March 2006

• Sockpuppet posts:
  • ThoMas (talk · contribs) confirmed sockpuppet 20 March 2006
  • 216.248.124.5 (talk · contribs) confirmed sockpuppet 17 March
  • 128.255.45.117 (talk · contribs) confirmed sockpuppet 18 March

• Impersonating users Vsion and JEREMY
  • [43] 21 March 2006

• Falsifying / Deleting an active poll (over 50 diffs! some below):
  • The original poll was posted by pegasus1138.
  • Resid inserted a poll above the existing poll.
  • He altered the wording of original poll,
  • and changed headings,
  • and added conditional clauses,
  • and more conditional clauses.
  • He received many admin warnings.
  • He continued to change poll rules and add sections,
  • and make false announcements,
  • and deprecate comments.
  • He added eligibility rules,
  • and more false notices.

My own involvement was as an editor on the Wikiethics policy from the beginning.

I see Rgulerdem's behaviour as a recurring pattern that should be dealt with as a whole. He was notified several times that users considered the poll to be a WP:DR poll because he refused all attempts at discussion and comprimise.
