- Evidence
RealityTelevisionFan has recreated categories formerly generated by Creepy Crawler, creating categories of the nature "Actors by superhero movie franchise",[1], [2], [3], [4]. EndlessDesign follows behind removing other, similar categories, then alphabetizing the list [5], or instead, simply continuing the process of adding the categories [6].
Further, Creepy Crawler [7] and RTF [8] both maintain user pages full of movie charts. Both have also used their user pages for dreamcasting Spiderman:CC [9], and RTV [10].
Doczilla linked me to his lengthy Previous analysis of EJBanks/CreepyCrawler Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/EJBanks. He compiled extensive evidence there.ThuranX 19:26, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Comments
Further, I am not the only user to notice this. User:Doczilla also commented User_talk:RealityTelevisionFan#Civil_socks here on the similarities.
- They have some interspersed edits on July 21 around 19:17 UTC. Unless he logged out of RTF, logged into Endless Design, made an edit, logged back out, and logged into RTF again, all within a minute, it seems unlikely that both are sockpuppets. -Amarkov moo! 22:21, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
- Conclusions
Likely – having reviewed the contributions of all three accounts, in particular the collective tendency to add superhero-related categories; the additional collective similarity for all accounts to utilise their userpages for extremely similar purposes; and the generally otherwise similar editing habits of all the accounts, it is clear to me that all three accounts are one in the same, and as such both secondary accounts have been blocked indefinitely.
