Note to other admins

This account was registered late in 2006 and used in a series of edits to the frame dragging article that had to be reverted for copyvio. When 3RR was noted, a lengthy series of anon IP's was used to insert the same material over and over for a period of several months. Semi-protect was added to try to end this, at which point this account immediately became active again.

After reading the relevant material on socks and what makes one abusive, I concluded that this user clearly violates the abusive sockputtetry rules. All of the associated accounts were used solely to edit the frame dragging article, and all of them were used to insert the same copyvio material. This behavior qualifies for an indef block, which I have imposed. As always, the user is free to ask to have this block lifted here.

A list of the accounts that clearly were socks can be found at Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Pasquino. Other accounts that were not absolutely cut-and-dried I did not tag.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on frame-dragging. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors. Please note that your edits as an anonymous user count against this. --EMS | Talk 21:39, 15 April 2007 (UTC)Reply



 

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to frame-dragging, you will be blocked from editing. You cannot continue to reintroduce an edit that has been roundly rejected by the Wikipedia community, especially one that is a suspected copyright violation. If you have some justification for it, then please present it at talk:frame-dragging. --EMS | Talk 20:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
