Code letter: G
Supporting evidence: Griffaw’s original contribution is [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=69792050&oldid=67336436 here]. His first revert of an edit negative to the industry is [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=80460898&oldid=79595149 here]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=92078014&oldid=91888076 Over here], he undoes the removal of a link he added. Then 68.189.203.46 appeared for the first time, and proceeded to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=169590480&oldid=169452995 blank the entire Controversy section]. Rvallejo promptly [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=169919637&oldid=169590480 reverted the edit], only for 68.189.203.46 to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=170079605&oldid=169919637 revert the reversion]. 68.189.203.46’s [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=177870136&oldid=177697760 very next edit] was to remove another statement negative of the industry. The same statement was reworded and added again, only to be [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=178462249&oldid=178343926 removed again] by 68.189.203.46. I came in and made some edits to, IMHO, balance the article, only to have my edits [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=191884317&oldid=191884282 reverted] by 68.189.203.46. Compwhizii reverted the reversion, only for it to be [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=192077494&oldid=191994231 reverted again]. I reverted the reversion of the reversion of the reversion (hope I got the number right :P), only for it to be reverted [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rent_to_own&diff=199128595&oldid=198972888 yet again], this time by 24.182.146.232.

Neither IP has made any edits to articles other than Rent to own. According to [http://www.maxmind.com/app/lookup_city MaxMind], they’re both from Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Since it’s Griffaw’s edits they are maintaining, I strongly suspect they are IP socks of his. It looks like the only way to resolve this is to semi-protect the article. I’m filing over at COI/N at the same time as I post this. All that should be needed is Griffaw’s town and ISP. —Wulf (talk) 07:42, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

{{declined}} Griffaw is way too old to check. I think it's fair to conclude that IPs from the same area making the same edits are likely to be the same person. Hard to verify technically, though. Thatcher 01:44, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
