Master account was blocked for persistent addition of false information into the encyclopedia, to wit, one "Giovanni Strassini" as Ohio State football player, All-American, Rose Bowl star; baseball All-American and other accomplishments. None of this is true; see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_College_football#.22Giovanni_Strassini.22 for some brief background. The master IP here was blocked last night for restoring the false, deleted material. Another, Special:Contributions/70.193.3.37, was also blocked last night for vandalism when it immediately resumed the same edits, which I again reverted. The three IPs being reported here likewise resumed the same edits while the master remained blocked, undoing all reversions (and substituting the equally fabricated "Giova Stroh"), but this morning were deemed "stale" for vandalism purposes and so I am reporting them here. All IPs geolocate to Charlotte, NC or environs.

Here is the master addiing Giovanni Strassini - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1976_Ohio_State_Buckeyes_football_team&diff=prev&oldid=555147716 diff]

and here are the socks adding Stroh -

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.

• Support checkuser request. This is a terrible kind of Wikipedia vandalism - systematic, well-put together hoaxes. Jrcla2 (talk) 18:44, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
• :What a CheckUser does is find all the IPs a user has used or all the users who have editing from some IP. So your request is technically impossible. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:38, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

• Master's block extended to 1 week. A WHOIS on the socks returns an unhelpful /11 range, so I guesstimated 70.193.0.0/20 and blocked for 48 hours, after ensuring there aren't a lot of recent range contribs. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:36, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
