Ra2007 very early in his editing career has worked on some Gastrich articles. He created a stub about Gastrich's organization in his sandbox (Special:DeletedContributions/Ra2007) and added a Louisiana Baptist University to the LBU dab page 11 minutes after it was created (meaning it was probably watchlisted). --B (talk) 15:26, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
Added 208.110.82.58, this IP appeared out of nowhere to comment on LBU. --B (talk) 17:26, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
User:Steven_Taylor used his first edit to open an absurd AfD discussion. Subsequent to this, he engaged in the spamming of talk pages of Wikipedians self-identifying as Christian, in an attempt to round up a posse of like minded people to push his POV. Celestianpower for deletion/Steven Levitt (2nd nomination)&oldid=41024859 closed the discussion, after which Steven Taylor reverted not for deletion/Steven Levitt (2nd nomination)&oldid=41025385 once but for deletion/Steven Levitt (2nd nomination)&oldid=41028327 twice, for a total of three reverts of three different editors.
Following the revert warring on the article, he posted a complaint regarding Celestianpower's behavior to AN/I, in which he broke several policies, most notably WP:CIVIL, WP:AGF, WP:POINT, and WP:SNOW.
Based on the fact that this involves an abuse of the AfD process by a new user, quite familiar with the deletion process, userbox categories, gathering support, and the administrator's noticeboard, it is suspected that this user is also in violation of WP:SOCK. Given that such religious AfD warring is strikingly similar to past abuses by Jason Gastrich (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), and that the nominated page concerned a pro-choice article, it is suspected that Steven Taylor may be one of Jason's many socks. Please note that suspected Gastrich socks have been edit warring at Abortion over the past few days.
Given that Jason is the subject of an active arbitration request, this CheckUser request is particularly relevant, in helping locate all socks related to the case. Hexagonal 16:43, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
BigBear (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) posted an uncivil warning on User Talk:Plover [1] with a comment stating that it is from User:Jason Gastrich. If this is a sock it is significant in the light of the ongoing Arbcom case, if it isn't then somebody is deliberately impersonating Gastrich. It is possible that this account may, if it is not Gastrich, be related to the many Gastrichnnn impersonators above - if so it probably establishes them an attempt to smear rather than meatpuppets. Gastrich certainly has enough enemies, although I think those who are active on Wikipedia (e.g. User:WarriorScribe) are not stupid enough to try this. Guy 16:09, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
At the Bob Cornuke (Gastrich related) article SYITS (talk · contribs) white washes criticism.
These others are suspected or confirmed socks. Arbusto 02:23, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
Suspected voting fraud at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of TRACS members by sockpuppets of the abovementioned two users, believed to be in connection with Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Jason Gastrich case. See my talkpage for details if further reference is needed. - Mailer Diablo 14:54, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Suspected users are as of follows :
Two more users with three messages, including two with personal attacks on User talk:Arbustoo :
Further spamming by Jayson Marx (talk · contribs), and a number of throw-away accounts at AN/I
It's pretty much certain that JohnDoe5 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is a sockpuppet of someone, but although it looks like Jason_Gastrich (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) again, the editor sharing the revert binge on List of unrecognized accreditation associations of higher learning (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), and thus the editor who avoided that all-important fourth revert, was JJay (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log). I would be very sad if it was JJay, since I have thus far viewed him as completely honest. To set my mind at rest, and because if it is Gastrich the ban timer meeds to be set again, could you please confirm? Thanks Just zis Guy you know? 19:27, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
Two more:
Jason Gastrich, who is currently serving a one year arbcom imposed ban has been abusively using sockpuppets to further disrupt Wikipedia, despite his ban. Gastrich has been found to farm sockpuppets in the past, and I don't see any reason why he wouldn't be doing so.
I request that the proven post-arbcom socks have a CheckUser run on them to see if any sleeper socks have been created from the IPs used to create the currently blocked disruptive puppets.
The proven puppets whose IPs should be investigated for sleeper accounts are: "Jeffrey Tuttle", "BryanW4C", "Jon Calla", "Angelina Y.", "Shindig Me", "No Jobs", and "Doe, John".
Also, shouldn't Gastrich's ban be reset for use of sockpuppets?
Thanks for the help.Hexagonal 08:26, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
Not sure if this is an impostor or a disruptive sockpuppet, but it would be helpful to know if there are any additional sleeper accounts to be aware of. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 00:38, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
Possible Gastrich sock, listed separately because he requested unblock, which is atypical, and I have unblocked. Contribs follow Gastrich pattern: communication does not. May be meat not sock. KillerChihuahua?!? 04:38, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
