- Evidence
User 195.82.106.244 (aka 244) has been banned from editing the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University article.[1] This user was using different proxy IPs which apparently came from Japan. After the page was semi-protected his current sockpuppet account "Some people believe" entered in action by reverting the article to his favorite version before arbitration ended [2]
This disruptive editor is making daily edits with provocative summaries made by random IP addresses that have never edited before. The edits are disruptive in that they constantly re-introduce material that was deleted with good reason after sufficient time-out for other editors to comment. Specifically, they introduce material that 244 was known to champion. Also the style of editing is consistent with how 244 was behaving just before arbitration.
- Making a barrage of edits in succession which incrementally amount to a revert [3],
- Re-introducing material that was removed because it was not adequately sourced, made contentious claims, linked to attack sites or other good reasons why it was legitimately removed [4],
- Mixed with other edits so he can scream, "Hey! Look! They are reverting valid edits too!" [5],
- Taunting edit summaries [6] [7] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brahma_Kumaris_World_Spiritual_University&diff=102626319&
oldid=102612684] and discussion topics [8],
- Disruptive edits tend to follow a daily or twice-daily cycle.
user performed a number of incognito minor edits to unrelated articles [9] then suddenly flipped and made a contentious edit to this article based on a tabloid article that 244 was strongly promoting [10] [11].

User "Some people" have been recently blocked for 24 hrs for a 3RR infringement[12] Thank you; avyakt7 14:58, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- User Some people have been banned indefinetely [13], however, this user has made a lot of damage to the Brahma Kumaris article by making 30+ additions to the article.[14] Starting January 28 and January 29. I am requesting the article be reverted to this version: 17:30, 28 January 2007 by Riveros11. Hope this request could be taken care of ASAP, since time is a factor in reverts. Thank you. avyakt7 21:22, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
