message: I am curious as to what WAREL's defense will be. Isopropyl 01:01, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think he will revert the RfC to his preferred version (three times in a row). Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 01:04, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

message: After being unblocked by Oleg so he could defend himself in the RfC, and notified thereof on his talk page, WAREL has not touched or mentioned the RfC, but has performed five reverts or partial reverts in a little over four hours at field (mathematics). --Trovatore 05:41, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess the RfC will have no effect.  Next step: arbcom. -lethe talk [ +] 06:15, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

text: ... or an indef ban. I don't think anybody will mind if WAREL will quietly stop contributing. Such a ban will of course need to be noted at WP:AN/I so people can comment on it. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 15:03, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: update

message: I submitted a CheckUser request on the WAREL and DYLAN_LENNON accounts. I know no one doubts these are the same person, but with solid technical evidence we can permanently block one account until we figure out what to do with the other one. -- Fropuff 20:39, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I kind of think blocking one account is kind of irrelevant at this late stage; it seems clear, barring something unexpected, that both accounts are headed for an indefinite (or at minimum very long) bans. In the mean time no real confusion is caused by both accounts being active, as everyone involved knows they're the same person. Still, the formal CheckUser is a good idea, so that when the ban comes down it can be applied to both accounts without qualms. --Trovatore 21:16, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Additionally, it limits the number of reverts needing to be undone per day from 6 to 3, which saves some effort. LambiamTalk 02:42, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  That no limits no thing. :) Next time WAREL goes on a reverting spree I will have both accounts blocked indefinitely, and I don't think anybody is going to cry about it. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 02:59, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: CheckUser

message: I blocked both WAREL and DYLAN indefinitely, but at Dmharvey's suggestion, I shorteneed WAREL's block to a week. The hope here is that a long block may make WAREL change his behavior. If not, he'll get blocked for long periods again. Please comment at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Indef block of WAREL/DYLAN LENNON. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 19:08, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Block note 

message: With WAREL and DYLAN LENNON blocked, User:64.213.188.94 has reverted field (mathematics) to WAREL's last version. A glance at the talk page suggests WAREL may have used this IP before. However the recent contrib history includes items that don't look like WAREL's style, so it could be a dynamic IP that WAREL draws from time to time (nslookup can't find it). --Trovatore 19:56, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
