;Evidence

• A discussion initiated by one of the IP addresses at Talk:Nissan GT-R challenged the validity of the discussion and the consensus achieved in a prior discussion relating to the term, supercar. The comments therein, by the starting IP address and the three others, revolved around the same line of comments and assumed bad faith on part of other editors. The discussions at Talk:Nissan GT-R mirror that of CompScientist.
• The IP addresses have reinstated original research and vast amounts of unsourced materials to supercar, beginning with this IP edit:

• Various IP addresses were adding in blank section headings as a potential POV-fork.

;Comments

• IP addresses evading block of CompScientist for edit warring, 3RR.
• Currently, Nissan GT-R is locked due to edit warring between CompScientist and various individuals, and supercar is locked due to edit warring between the IP addresses and various individuals.
• I am sending this for IP Checkuser, and if this proves to be CompScientist, a lengthy block for disruption, abuse and repeated sock puppetry will follow. Jehochman ^Talk 15:14, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

;Conclusions

The IPs were confirmed by checkuser [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/IP_check&oldid=185961972#CompScientist] and I have lengthened the existing block to one month for block evasion and disruptive sock puppetry. Jehochman ^Talk 21:25, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
