- Evidence
1. All users above have been proven as likely sockpuppets by a CheckUser case.
2. Elemental of truth created a hoax article called Bookworm Short Stories (which has since been speedily deleted). While Bookworm Short Stories exist, it did not exist in the format this user describes it, and its existence in its current form certainly is not notable enough to be included on Wikipedia. Elemental of truth was also outed as a sockpuppet by another of his chums, Zero of any heroes, on my talkpage.
3. OriginalOdin has not yet vandalized, but CheckUser case proves he is a sockpuppet.
4. Zero of any heroes outed himself, along with Elemental of truth, on my talkpage.
5. Orpheus the Musician made the following edits [1] and [2], which inserted the radically different storylines and superpower-inspired storylines that ColorWolf is famous for.
6. SpaceFighterMan, SardonicWolfdog, and StrongestManAlive all added fake contents to Mee Pok Man, which ColourWolf later admitted to have fabricated a fake synopsis.
- Comments
I have blocked Zero of any heroes indefinitely for the above post. Superm401 - Talk 16:02, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- He hasn't been blocked, as shown by his log. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 16:17, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Looks to me like he has, see here. Equazcion •✗/C • 16:28, 25 Mar 2008 (UTC)
- Excellent, I stand corrected. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 16:30, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ColourWolf has created over 40 accounts now for vandalism on Wikipedia, in addition to IP editing (and god knows how many he uses). There needs to be a better solution. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 16:06, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Perhaps a hardblock is in order. Socking on this scale, and with this user's history, is clearly grounds for a permanent ban/hardblock. Equazcion •✗/C • 16:08, 25 Mar 2008 (UTC)
- Also, could someone help me with the abuse reports to StarHub and QALA Singapore (they own the IPs ColourWolf uses) I need logs and links and those other infos. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 16:28, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Conclusions
Archiving as stale. There's not enough in the contributions to go on, and whilst the checkuser returned likely, since we're dealing with a Sinaporean editor, that doesn't give us much to go on, in my view. GBT/C 11:31, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
