Suspected sockpuppet based on the extreme simularities in style and articles between this users edits and the edits of other sockpuppets of Italways:

;Comments

I'm reviewing, though I have to say I'm a bit confused what benefit there is in listing {{user|Italways}} as the "sockmaster" as that account has no contributions. It's a heck of a lot easier to investigate this stuff if the listed accounts actually have edits to review (and yes I see the provided diffs; I'm just saying additional "sock" accounts with contributions would help the investigation).--Isotope23 talk 17:56, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

;Conclusions

Per the duck test; this editor is pretty clearly tied to the above accounts and has been blocked accordingly.--Isotope23 talk 18:01, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

:As Isotope23 wrote, both users are indef-blocked. A checkuser case is ongoing. Shalom (HelloPeace) 13:39, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
