• {{checkuser|Harveyshultz}}
• {{checkuser|Headlessrider}}
• {{checkuser|Mwanakongo}}

• Code letter:F

• Supporting Evidence: See just below. Three freshly created accounts have arrived at Origin of religion to repeat Muntuwandi's edits once again: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Origin_of_religion&diff=224158110&oldid=224144914], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Origin_of_religion&diff=224179656&oldid=224158110] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Origin_of_religion&diff=prev&oldid=224208056]. Can his IP be blocked (?), and will someone please follow this up with some extra sanctions on the puppet master. Thanks.PelleSmith (talk) 18:46, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

• All these are {{confirmed}}, obviously. It isn't easy to block the IPs -- they are generally either dynamic or public terminals. For more discussion about Muntuwandi, I suggest you start a conversation at WP:ANI on the matter. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 23:01, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

• Also add {{vandal|Muntoowandi}} and {{vandal|Bucky Burnside}}. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 14:26, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
• {{clerknote}} Muntoowandi & Bucky Burnside blocked indef. Tiptoety ^talk 01:10, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
• One more sock {{vandal|Chikwangwa}}, please block.PelleSmith (talk) 11:51, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
• I blocked this one earlier in the day but omitted to tag it. {{confirmed}}, obviously, and a couple of socks blocked too.Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 13:51, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
• Another sock {{vandal|Gandinga mondongo}}. Please block as usual.PelleSmith (talk) 10:21, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
• Blocked by me based on contribs. I'm not a checkuser although it's too obvious to bother with I think. Stifle (talk) 10:51, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
• {{confirmed}}, obviously. It is useful to list these, because there are regularly a couple of other accounts visible from each check. Here, for instance, we have {{vandal|Hungry stomach}} and {{vandal|Freddie bernstein}}. We also have {{vandal|Raufual}} from another IP address he's used in the past. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 12:11, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{clerknote}} all already blocked. -- lucasbfr ^talk 14:26, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

• New sock: {{vandal|Tigertron}} Not logging on for a couple of days resulted in Origin of religion being left in the Muntuwandi/sock version for the entire weekend. Someone needs to fully protect the page.PelleSmith (talk) 18:28, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
• {{confirmed}}, plus a few more (see my block log). Suggest you go to WP:RFPP to sort out the page protection. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 18:39, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
• Question - is there any chance we could get the checkuser to give the IP and/or IP range of this user given the use of sleeper socks, or will I need to file a separate request? The Evil Spartan (talk) 18:44, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
• The modus operandi doesn't really allow for that to be effective, I'm afraid. I think page protection is probably the route to go -- but I don't deal much with that, so I'd prefer to let someone with more familiarity with the procedures deal with that one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sam Korn (talk • contribs)
• Latest sock: {{vandal|Extuwandi}}. Block please.PelleSmith (talk) 04:25, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
• This is already blocked. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 14:48, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
• One more: {{vandal|Fussin and fightin }}. Same as before, please.PelleSmith (talk) 06:12, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{confirmed}} - both of them. No other socks that I can see - Alison ^❤ 06:18, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{clerknote}} Blocked and tagged. Tiptoety ^talk 06:25, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

And then there was another -- {{vandal|Michael g funky}}. Block thanks.PelleSmith (talk) 13:55, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{confirmed}}, blocked. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 13:57, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

::Not sure if "Michael g funky" is actually blocked, is he? —Cesar Tort 15:51, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

::: Yep, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User:Michael+g+funky he is] - Alison ^❤ 15:55, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

• An please do the same with {{vandal|Amicus meus}} and {{vandal|Nobonobo}}. What a bore.PelleSmith (talk) 20:04, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{confirmed}} - both of them.

:{{deferred}} another checkuser with more Muntuwandi experience, as I see potentially a lot more socks there - Alison ^❤ 21:10, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

::: ... and {{done|finished}} - following a second opinion from another checkuser - Alison ^❤ 22:41, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{clerknote}} Both already blocked. Tiptoety ^talk 22:56, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

• And another {{vandal|Da mi basia}}. There are clearly an endless stream of these and he doesn't get tired of creating them. Perhaps its better to just forget about reporting them and just reverting them instead?PelleSmith (talk) 00:21, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
• That one is blocked -- origin of religion is now fully-protected for a week. Let's see if this solves things. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 00:32, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
• Unfortunately, as I have mentioned before, protection will not solve this problem. It is like sweeping the dirt under the carpet. This dispute has been going on for one year, who is to say it won't continue after one week. Unless long term solutions are sought, to which I am amenable to, the dispute will continue. If the admins would prefer to continue protecting or blocking instead of finding a permanent solution, then so be it. I have often requested admin intervention and dispute resolution several times, however these requests have not been taken seriously, hence we are in this position. I believe that MW has been treated unfairly by PelleSmith and Dbachmann. Independent observers on the Anthropology project page, have already commented on how these to editors have done their best to frustrate MW [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Anthropology#Evolution_and_the_origin_of_religion here]. Unfortunately, the admins are too robotic. All they are concerned about is following routine procedures like counting the number of reverts, and checking IP addresses. However they have failed to see the bigger picture. This issue remains unresolved. Peace and happy blocking. Moon to wandhee (talk) 02:20, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
• As with the above sock, can you also block {{vandal|Speedy la cucaracha}}. Thanks.PelleSmith (talk) 10:47, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
• Also another sock {{vandal|Cold ground}}. He was tag teaming with this one and the above.PelleSmith (talk) 11:07, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
• {{done}} -- also blocked an IP used to create accounts. Sam Korn ^(smoddy) 11:20, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

• {{checkuser|Manikongo}}

• Code letter:F

• Supporting Evidence: User:Muntuwandi was [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/3RR#User:Muntuwandi_reported_by_User:PelleSmith_.28Result:_Blocked_for_one_month_.29 blocked for a month] for editing warring on Origin of religion, something he was already previously blocked for doing (that time for two weeks)--see his [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User:Muntuwandi block log]. The very day after he [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Muntuwandi&diff=prev&oldid=223670341 decides to leave the project] as a result of his block, User:Manikongo arrives to make the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Origin_of_religion&diff=next&oldid=223876965 exact same changes] Muntuwandi has been blocked for stubbornly edit warring into this entry. The content issue revolves around Muntuwandi not being capable of accepting that his pet version of this entry, which has been AfDed a number of times, is against consensus. As you can see from his contributions User:Manikongo was created a year ago but made no edits anywhere outside his own user page until July 6th when he assumed editing where Muntuwandi left off. It is clear that this account was a dormant second account of Muntuwandi's and that he is using it to evade his block. Please do something about this.PelleSmith (talk) 01:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

:{{unnecessary}}. The other account is being disruptive in its own right, so simply blocking that will suffice. That, plus the fact it's likely a sockpuppet anyway, make this check somewhat redundant. --Deskana (banana) 23:16, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
