Revision as of 21:22, 24 July 2006
Summary: Several sock puppets and anon users believed to be the same user (or a group of users working together) are vandalizing the group of articles related to Avatar: The Last Airbender. The edits were shown to be a violation of WP:V and WP:C. This has been explained on many talk pages, yet the user(s) continue to insert the content. Their actions have included massive WP:3RR violations, ban evasions, personal attacks, blatant vandalism, and more.

The user Father's Wish has been continually contributing a massive amount of information to Avatar: The Last Airbender pages that he claims "he hacked from www.nick.com" that concerns future episodes the series. When confronted over this, he apparantly started creating other accounts or just not signing in at all when re-adding his unverifiable information or creating new pages based on it. A RfC was taken at Talk:List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes#Request for Comment: Verifiability of recent additions, and community consensus was reached that this information was not to be included on Wikipedia. Despite this, the listed IP addresses continuted breaking the 3RR and adding the information back to the page List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes. After semi-protection was secured, several pages, included the semi-protected page, were vandalized by newly-created accounts and IPs, and the information was added back to many of the pages in question.
This particular dispute has engulfed numerous pages, including List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes, Secret of the Fire Nation, Part 1, City of Walls and Secrets, Secret of the Fire Nation, Part 2, Tales of Ba Sing Se, When there was you and me, Template:Avatar, and Avatar: the Last Airbender. Duplicates of pages with this info have also been created: List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes2, Template:Avatar2 List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episode, Template:Avatars.
In addition, there is a (presently) less-prominent dispute: Father's Wish and other of his suspected persona have been adding a massive amount of material on numerous pages that has been copied verbatim from http://www.nick.com. He/she has refused to remove this plagairzed information and has added back said information several times after other editors removed it. Plagairized content is currently in the process of being identified and removed and is known to involve the following pages: Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation and List of minor secondary characters of Avatar: The Last Airbender.

As of the time I write this message, he is creating more accounts and committing more vandalism than myself and numerous other editors can keep up with. –Prototime (talk • contribs) 06:59, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
He is now going so far as to vandalize my userpage and talk page. H2P 07:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
gotta keep the truth up, prototime and the rest are reverting to a vandalized state. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.74.117.57 (talk • contribs) 03:02, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- So you admit to owning all these accounts, then? –Prototime (talk • contribs) 07:05, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- Actually is me and 4 buds doing this on proxies. but hey, we know it's the truth, we saw it on the nick's xml file and we're gonna keep it up until we make some sort of compromise or apology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.74.117.57 (talk • contribs) 03:10, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- You're WAY beyond compromise anymore H2P 07:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
This user is still making new socks and continually vandalized pages, and even has admitted to these actions and continues to do this. Can something PLEASE be done about this as soon as possible? It is extremely difficult to make any worthwhile edits to pages relating to Avatar: The Last Airbender when the editors are just policing articles day-in and day-out. –Prototime (talk • contribs) 16:16, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm assuming this is where I respond to accusations? I'm not a sock puppet. I added the Tales of Ba Sing Se page because the link that was on the episode list page at the time did not go anywhere and because I thought it was a real episode because it's listed on TV.com. I also made a minor edit on The Secret of the Fire Nation (Part 2, I think) just to correct some spelling. That was before all the reverts. I did not know how the info had been obtained at the time, nor had I read any of the policies rules (but that's something I intend to do before I make any more edits). I don't know if any of you will believe me, but I am telling the truth. Xair
- I wasn't completely sure if Xair was a sockpuppet account myself, but thought I'd add it to cover all grounds. You've been removed from the list; sorry for the mix-up. –Prototime (talk • contribs) 16:16, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
A compromise has been created. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Inclusivethings (talk • contribs) 12:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oh really, and what is that, may I ask? –Prototime (talk • contribs) 16:21, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Look at the new episode page that I keep reverting to a good state. You mean the one that's been deleted? H2P 20:12, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Yes, the deleted one. All you have to do is unprotect the original list, change it to include the rumored titles and secrets of the fire nation, and put a nice box at top that says "may change on air"
- But, it's gone now, so you might as well just stop you're preventing us from actually making progress with editing the other Avatar pages H2P 20:15, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
I'll produce another copy soon, or the admin can undelete it.
- Accounts blocked. I will check over the IPs tomorrow. Iolakana|T 20:59, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Okay all done, I will stop if a vote begins. I see no vote, I will not stop. Please link me to the vote when it does begin. Leave the link in this page.
- Even if that was an option, it would not work, as I'm sure you'd just vote with about 50 socks.--Fyre2387 21:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- He's got you there. H2P 21:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
I promise to not vote.
