OPP bot

Hey DeltaQuad - did anything ever come of your note here regarding a bot for OPP?--Jezebel'sPonyo^{bons mots} 21:07, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Might of, but if anything did it got lost in my last computer reformat a long time ago. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 17:12, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Okie dokie. I may get around to dumping all the old closed entries in the archive. But today is Friday, and the weather on the Westerly end of this great country of ours is fab, it will have to wait for another day. Cheers, --Jezebel'sPonyo^{bons mots} 17:41, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Maurice07: One IP is not enough

Hi DQ. Sorry for disturbing you but if/when you have any time please see this new SPI of Maurice. Thank you. Best regards. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 22:37, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi DeltaQuad, Dr's recent baseless claims really broke my nerves. He claimed that every action made by me. I see it as a personal revenge. I also wonder what the reason and sent message your talk page [1] but it immediately deleted after five minutes.[2] Not spoken to him in anyway unfortunately. He claims that the IP numbers of the same address. This is really ridiculous. I prove this with a few examples. They are found in the history of some of the articles. Look at:

All IP changes and Dr's claims of IP's were made in Turk Telekom.It's internet access provider in Istanbul and 14 million people live here. Check it: [4] and [5]. The doctor labeled IP addresses, it full of contradictions. For exple: 78.184.196.148 is Istanbul-based [6] but 78.184.244.26 Tekirdağ-based [7] How is known from same building? According to the theory of the Dr.K all of these IP addresses and edits belong to me. While there is no concrete evidence, a user can not blame. I'm banned of Greek-Turkish topic banned, aware of it but I don't think that the user being objective. Thank you. Maurice (talk) 02:18, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Sierraparis or Erythema checkuser results

Hi, DeltaQuad. I had noticed that the colloidal silver pages were a lot less noisy lately, but I didn't realize that Ryanspir had been blocked as a prolific sockpuppet until just a few minutes ago. Looking at that case, it appears that a couple of weeks ago someone flagged Sierraparis (talk · contribs) and Erythema (talk · contribs) as potential socks for a check. Neither came up as related to Ryanspir, but you did make an offhand mention that one of them had a second account that did not – at the time – appear to be in violation of the sockpuppet policy: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ryanspir/Archive#11 July 2013.

As of a few hours ago, Erythema was topic-banned from medical pages, and Sierraparis cautioned: [8]. Obviously I don't know to whom the second account belonged, how recently it was used, what topics it edited, or – most important – whether or not it belongs to the editor who was topic-banned or just the one who was cautioned. Either way, I suppose, the use of the alternate account for editing medical topics would be problematic, whether as an outright violation of the topic ban, or as evasion of scrutiny.

Can you keep an eye on the situation, and issue any cautions necessary? Cheers! TenOfAllTrades(talk) 13:33, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

I was just coming here to say this exact same thing, with diffs and links and everything! So... what Ten said. Thanks... Zad68 15:01, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

I've been watching for activity for the past few days, and neither of the accounts that matched have edited in the past three days (3 days used for ambiguity). While I note the restriction, the user has not violated that sanction or the sockpuppetry policy directly as I see it. So at this point, I'll just keep an eye on it as best as I can. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 00:29, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
