Knispel, Julian144 and the IP 109.129.206.192 share the same style of POV-pushing at Erich von Manstein. Knispel removes scholarly references such as Smelser and replaces the critical text with positive viewpoints cited to Manstein's own book, Verlorene Siege. Knispel spells with lower case letters in words such as german and red army. The IP address removes scholarly cites such as Weinberg and spells sixth army in lower case. Julian144 removes scholarly cites such as Murray & Millet, and he spells november and december in lower case. All three editors are pushing a positive viewpoint of Manstein that is not supported by modern scholarship.

- Checked per the overlap in contention, similar stylistic items, and a couple of other aspects. From the technical perspective, I would mark this as Inconclusive. There is not an insignificant geographical distance between the two accounts, but it's a difference that could still be accommodated. There is also the aspect of the passage of time since Knispel's last activity. However I find it editorially significant that Julian144 was registered very shortly after Knispel was blocked indefinitely. Looking at the edit summaries of both accounts on talk pages and in light of the other factors, my editorial opinion is that the two accounts are operated by the same individual. No comment on the IP. WilliamH (talk) 17:44, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
- Administrator note Blocked and tagged the account per WP:DUCK. The IP hasn't edited in three months, so there's no reason to take action there. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 15:26, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Stug43 is interested only in Erich von Manstein, just like Knispel and Knispel's sock Julian144. All of these editors share a style of using lower case too often (previously discussed in the Knispel SPI archive), for instance Stug34's lower case "red army" and his "august". The article discusses the Dnieper River but sockpuppet Julian144 wrote "Dnjepr"—so does Stug43 in this edit. These are all the same person. Binksternet (talk) 02:46, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
