=== YuRiPa ===

• {{checkuser|YuRiPa}}

• {{checkuser|Jetcali}}

• Code letter: C, F

• Background:
• Edits by the suspected puppet account are rather benign so far (one revert), however my suspicion is that the suspected puppet account was created in order to evade a ban for sockpuppetry.
• More information at Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/YuRiPa (3rd).

• Diffs to compare:
• Jetcali at [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Singapore_Girl&diff=prev&oldid=96726944 11:53, 27 December 2006] and at [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Singapore_Girl&diff=prev&oldid=96727477 12:00, 27 December 2006] with Shimmers77 at [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Shimmers77&diff=prev&oldid=96715834 09:44, 27 December 2006] and YuRiPa at [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:YuRiPa&diff=prev&oldid=96717625 10:06, 27 December 2006].

Suspicion that the main account is used for disruptive page moves and personal attacks while the puppet account is used for legit edits. For further details regarding the CheckUser request see Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/YuRiPa (2nd).

• Code letter: C

Suspected that the puppet account was created by the suspected puppeteer to impersonate a copyright holder on another website (Flickr) in order to allow the use of a copyrighted image. Changed signature here: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Singapore_Girl&diff=prev&oldid=96253600 diff]. Oden 10:21, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

:{{moreinfo}} please give diffs showing the impersonation of the Flickr copyright holder, as well as a link to the Flickr image, thanks. Daniel.Bryant ^{[ T · C ]} 10:45, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

::I suspect that {{user|IanFuller}} is a puppet account for {{user|YuRiPa}}, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Singapore_Girl_%28Airlines%29&diff=prev&oldid=96253173 diff] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ASingapore_Girl_%28Airlines%29&diff=96253600&oldid=96253532 diff]. The suspected puppet account was probably created in order to allow a copyrighted image (:Image:SIA Cabin Crew.jpg) to be allowed (the puppet account has the same name as a user account at Flickr, [http://www.flickr.com/photos/ianfuller/200143214/]).

::I have started a case at Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/YuRiPa. --Oden 10:53, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

It appears that the user moved the page, so the page diffs are gone. --Oden 10:54, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

:Fixed the page diffs. --Oden 10:56, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
