:All IPs {{confirmed}} as {{user|Sanfy}}. I'll look into the possibility of a rangeblock, but it seems we might have a lot of collateral damage. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 21:42, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

::Hmmm, Sanfy's block was almost expired when all this started. Unless there are more instances of vandalism, a block seems punitive at this point. Any other opinions? —Wknight94 (talk) 22:28, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

:::I'd recommend that he be warned not to log off to make edits, as it gives the impression that he is trying to avoid scrutiny. Block if he continues to make controversial edits as an anon. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 22:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

:::: I agree that a rangeblock might not be apropriate. What I understand is that he probably uses a dial-up connection from Mumbai which means a a significant numer of anon users could be affected. However, Sanfy cannot be allowed to go scot-free simply because his block had nearly expired. He found a loophole to circumvent his block and used it. Any blocked person could do that. The block is not so-much about the block itself as much as getting the editors to respect the rules. He could have requested an unblock, which he did not. Sanfy has done some much needed work, agreed , but he has shown a disregard for the rules despite numerous helpful suggestions( and warnings )from other editors. And lets not forget, his first block occured because he thought he could do whatever he wants as long as he isnt logged in and no one would find out it was him. This block evasion is in the same spirit of defiance for the rules. --Deepak D'Souza 04:24, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Why are you all after me, yes I have edited in wikipedia before the block expired, but have I done any unconstructive edits?Sanfy

:Don't you really know? You have done a very serious offence on WIkipedia. VANDALISM. How do we trust you? Kensplanet^Talk_{Contributions} 06:55, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

• Supporting evidence:

122.169.11.242 has vandalised Mangalorean Catholics and Sanfy is the only editor to vandalised it in the past: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mangalorean_Catholics&diff=240872056&oldid=240871719], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mangalorean_Catholics&diff=240871280&oldid=240870980], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mangalorean_Catholics&diff=240684453&oldid=240683957].

Also anon has redirected this article to "Goan Mangaloreans"[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mangalorean_Catholics&diff=prev&oldid=246064663] and "Mangalorean Goans"[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mangalorean_Catholics&diff=prev&oldid=246064447] which Sanfy had also done [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mangalorean_Catholics&diff=239987172&oldid=239987117].

A look at the contibutions of the IP 122.169.11.242 and Sanfy clearly shows that Sanfy was inactive while the IP was active and only came back after the IP was blocked. --Deepak D'Souza 12:29, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

:{{confirmed}} {{user|122.169.11.242}} = {{user|Sanfy}} and other IPs in that range. — Rlevse • Talk • 20:49, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

{{Clerk-Note}}Sanfy is blocked for 1 week for logging out to vandalize. MBisanz ^talk 00:31, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
