[edit]
Suspected sockpuppets
Evidence submitted by Bardin


I was not aware of Breathtaker until I had already opened this Sockpuppet investigation case against Chontamenti who I believe is the same person as Ada Kataki. Another editor below alerted me to the fact that Ada Kataki is a sockpuppet of Breathtaker rather than the sockmaster. So I'm partially rewriting this to reflect the new updated info. Hope that doesn't confuse anyone.

Both Breathtaker and Ada Kataki have been indefinitely blocked.

Ada Kataki's account was created on the same day that Breathtaker's account was blocked.

Chontamenti's account was first created on the same day that Ada Kataki received a 1 week block. After the expiry of this 1 week block, Chontamenti became dormant while Ada Kataki returned. Chontamenti became active again after Ada Kataki was given the indefinite block.

It's not really difficult to figure out that they are the same person because their entire involvement on wikipedia is limited to being a genre warrior on articles relating to gothic or industrial music.

My initial suspicion came from the edit history of the goth subculture template where the addition of the word "preferred" in front of "music" has only ever been done by Ada Kataki and now Chontamenti: first addition, second addition, third addition, fourth addition.

Other identical edits:

Etc.

All of that are grounds for suspicion but I became convinced that the two are the same when I noticed that they employ a similar vocabulary in their edit summary. In particular, the phrase "has nothing to do with" is something commonly found:

Other similar terms include:

Some other common positions:

Breathtaker writes German. Ada Kataki reads German. Chontamenti is from Germany. See also this and this for more evidence connecting Ada Kataki to Germany; also this and this also connects Breathtaker to Germany.

I am also not the first user who suspected that the three are the same as indicated here. --Bardin (talk) 15:41, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
