I am writing to inform you that I suspect user Thmc1, whom you blocked on June 3, 2010, is back as a sockpuppet using at least one known account, Nyc88. This account's history log was created on Jun 4, 2010, a day after Thmc1 was blocked. Nearly 100% of the individual articles that Nyc88 has edited were also edited by Thmc1. Here's some evidence:

Will you be taking immediate action, or will another investigation have to be opened? An investigation of another blocked user(Matandmoreland aka ScotyBerg) is currently underway, and there may be enough evidence there to link him/her to Thmc1. The IP addresses of Matandmoreland, Thmc1, and Nyc88 all appear to be originating from the same, small, 5x5 mile area(Westwood/Miller Park, Fair Lawn) of Bergen County in the NE corner of New Jersey.

Further to his block evasion as 99.237.226.35 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), it would appear he's back at it as 216.208.136.194 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)? 2 lines of K303 19:23, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
I would like to have your opinion about the given text (follow link). Next I would like to work in the external references. There for I need time to do research in the field. During this research I plan to leave this article for a rest. I hope you can give constructive advice about what to add/remove in te article in order gain a bigger chance of being not deleted.

I was looking through the edit history for my user page and noticed you reverted some vandalism on 22 August 2009. I've only just seen it and I wanted to say thank you for your eagle-eye! ;) londonsista Poke 11:30, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for doing the fix; I figured that it was much more complicated than simply removing the ((subst:, or I would have done it. Nyttend (talk) 17:43, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, I thought about just unblocking him but with the Arbcomm formality already underway on AN, I was sure someone would have shouted Admin abuse if I did so - Dumber things have happened on the drama boards. Thanks for cleaning it up. Toddst1 (talk) 23:20, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
This guy was blocked for using an alternative account in a inappropriate way (WP:ILLEGIT). In his unblockrequest he claimed he was only editing through that account, if that is true he is abusing WP:CLEANSTART. It seems like he is back and evading his block.

I didn't see this comment until after the DRV was closed. I'd appreciate explanation.
Well WP:POLITICIAN says nothing about "life tenure", so why is it relevant -- whatever it is?
Which US judges require senate confirmation? Are you suggesting a discussion should take place on Wikipedia talk:Notability (people) that WP:POLITICIAN be amended to only allow judges appointed with "life tenure", and whose appointment is confirmed by the upper house of their national legislature? What about countries where the appointment of judges doesn't require legislative confirmation, as, of course, 190 other countries have Federal judges?
What does the term "sit by designation" mean? As to whether they can sit on federal courts of appeal, all the civilian appointees already sat on federal courts of appeal. The military appointees were all supposed to have sat on military courts of appeal of similar seniority.
I don't understand why you think the third criteria you listed above applies -- they too aren't in WP:POLITICIAN.
What is an "article I judge"? With regard to "narrow jurisdiction", the clauses that refers to judges in WP:POLITICIAN says nothing about narrow or broad jurisdictions.
As for your comparison with Bankruptcy appeal courts -- you seem to be saying the bankruptcy courts, while they may be Federal, consider trivial matters. You didn't say why you consider the USCMCR as comparable to the bankruptcy courts, but as for the triviality of their scope -- they consider death penalty and national security cases. Wouldn't most non-lawyers consider these the very least trivial kinds of cases?
Have you already shared somewhere whether you are a lawyer, in real life? Geo Swan (talk) 15:07, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
I'd like to notify you, as a previous blocking administrator, that I've initiated a Request for Comments/User concerning Youreallycan (talk · contribs). The RFC/U, which mentions your block, can be read at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Youreallycan. Prioryman (talk) 14:35, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
I saw you deleted Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/TRLIJC19. I was toying with that idea, but thought it was generally not done so decided against. I assume you deleted it with your clerk's hat on, and that the you folks would prefer non-clerk admins not do it ourselves (except I suppose for obvious vandalism, etc.) ? --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:51, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
I missed the discussion to remove empty days from the log at WT:DRV (and consequently closed a couple of DRVs too early by accident). Is the removal of empty days from the log is essential to this new bot's function? or is it just something people decided to do? It's really a lot easier to keep track of what needs to be closed when all the days show up in the log. I wanted to get your thought on if there was a technical problem with this before I brought it back up at WT:DRV though. Best, IronGargoyle (talk) 13:47, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Dear T. Canens, I wanted to take a moment (after an appropriate cool down period for all parties) and thank you for your patience and humility with respect to my case. There are plenty of people who might not be as thoughtful as you were in that situation, and I think it speaks very well to the effectiveness of some of Wikipedia's institutions that you were willing to give it a second look.
If I could also put a small question to you: I reviewed some of the edits surrounding this controversy, and I noticed that 4 or 5 IP pages were tagged falsely being me. Would it create a lot of problems if I blanked those? Or is there some other procedure for handling that? After the trouble that all of this caused last time I am very hesitant to make edits of that nature. It might not matter, but I don't want this to reflect negatively on me in the future. Thank you again. Respectfully, T. trichiura Infect me 14:36, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
You shouldn't be closing an appeal of an enforcement action you supported and, in fact, an action you were instrumental in implementing as you suggested doubling the length of the initial suggested ban.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 05:29, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi Tim, I'm contacting yourself, Slp1 and Seraphimblade as you've commented on the decision at AE on the FergusM1970 case. I got a msg[1] from User:One Night In Hackney (an editor named as a party in the original claims he has not recieved appropriate warning & therefore cannot be sanctioned under WP:TROUBLES. The decision could do with another look anyway--Cailil talk 11:08, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
I need to bring to your attention, or that of any other SysAdmin the ongoing sockpuppet investigation of Thmc1. As you probably already know, Thmc1 was originally blocked by you back in June of 2010. In the current investigation, Kudpung has blocked several IPs used by Thmc1 and even concluded that the suspected accounts are in fact "block evasives" of Thmc1. Nonetheless, he has yet to block those account(s) and is asking for the involvement of another SysAdmin. It's been over a week, and nothing has happened since that time. If possible, could you or another SysAdmin give it a further check[2]? Considering the circumstances that Thmc1 violated the ban and has returned to continue his disruptive edits, I would suggest that you permanently block his accounts, suspected IPs, as well as any other unidentified IPs used by the accounts and other unknown accounts affiliated with them.MBaxter1 (talk) 21:04, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
