<translate> This page is for requesting CheckUser information on a wiki with no local CheckUsers (see also [[<tvar name="SRP">Steward requests/Permissions</tvar>|requesting checkuser access]]). Make sure to follow the following instructions, or your request may not be processed in a timely manner.</translate>

<translate> Before making a request:</translate>

  1. <translate> Make sure you have a good reason for the check. It will only be accepted to counter vandalism or disruption to Wikimedia wikis. Valid reasons include needing a block of the underlying IP or IP range, disruptive sockpuppetry, vote-stacking, and similar disruption where the technical evidence from running a check would prevent or reduce further disruption.</translate>
  2. <translate> Be specific in your reasons. Ambiguous or insufficient reasons will cause delays. Explain the disruption and why you believe the accounts are related, ideally using [[<tvar name="diff">mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Diff</tvar>|diff links]] or other evidence.</translate>
  3. <translate> Make sure there are no local checkusers.</translate>
  4. <translate> Please ensure that the check hasn't already been done:</translate>

Requests

kjellgunnarlarsen@no.wikipedia.org

Is the user Kjellgunnarlarsen the same as the user writing a previous contribution in the discusssion about no:Talk:SOS Rasisme? [1] A check user on this issue is not discussed internally at no.wp, but it is far beyond acceptable limits at the project. The user is given an indefinite ban but it should be lifted if the user is not the same. Jeblad 12:56, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm not clear what disruption there is here... Are you asking whether the named user is the same as the IP which made the edit you linked to?  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 19:07, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Someone has signed anonymous edits over several years with the same name, often described various aspects of other editors and their work, sometimes in less flattering words, in this edit it was especially less flattering. After being removed by two fellow admins someone uses the same name and reenters most of the previous obscene edit. If necessary I guess it would be possible to get a transcript, but I prefer that someone else do that part. Probably there are several editors involved from the same IPs, as this person work for an organization which has been involved in discussions about a disputed article at no.wp.

Checkuser requests of Chinese Wikipedia

The following useres were all registered in late March or April, and have added some inappropriate advertisement of a book 博弈圣经 (Bible of Game Theory) as well as a spam link in a variety of articles. Please do a checkuser since our community do not indefinitely block VOAs.

Thank you in advance. —Bencmq 11:55, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
