Wikipedia talk:Requests for checkuser/Case/Bluegold

message: These pair of users should not be entertained with their request.  I did very little or nothing to these users, maybe just to hurt their pride a little.  Maybe I just picked a provocative name that's getting under their skin (a name I must reconsider in light of their reaction, see Irish language page and Irish language talk page). If you study my edits, you will see that there has been no violation or vandalism on my part. My IP address never starts with 6 (as stated above)and always begins with an 8, and it varies from time to time. And User:84.245.75.24, I have traced to Slovakia, not local to me, and was most disgusted at some of it's edits. A complete storm in a teacup.  Thanks No More POV Please 00:34, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  IMHO, there isn't much room to doubt the use of bad faith socks among the 5 users, but I readily admit the possibility than one or two may just be coincidences. However, on Talk:Irish language I asked  if he was . The reaction was interesting to say the least. Here's another opportunity, , do you deny you are a sock? Admitting it now and saving hard-working wikipedians some distraction will go some way to compensating for the misdemeanors. If you aren't, I fully apologize for the accusation. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 01:54, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

text: There you go again Calgacus, alway having the last say. Actually don't know what it is, but there is something about I like, true!  In a court of law the defendant always gets the last say, and that's me.  It's you and your friend Angus McLellan who are wasting good Wikipedian time, as the outcomes of these 'investigations' can be uncertain to say the least.  So you took the charges, now up to administration, and I believe the reasons for your case are flawed.  No More POV Please 02:10, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Indeed it is. You shouldn't be worried if you are innocent. I offer you again the chance to deny sock puppetry. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 02:14, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There you go, last word again.  i am not worried, maybe you are! No More POV Please 02:19, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yeah yeah. Answer the question please; you only have a short opportunity, just say "no, I am not". - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 02:22, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Seriously, I have to now retire. yawn! No More POV Please 02:26, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

text: Hey, why don't you get your other names "sent emails" so they can demonstrate on this page even more similarities in style. At least you have denied it, unlike your alleged socks  and . It may be coincidence that you are listing users in exactly the same linked format (as you all do elsewhere too), and that you both refer to the checkers here as "administration", but if it is, then I apologize. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 22:18, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't know what a sockpuppet was until today. I didn't know what a checker was until you mentioned it. Whizz! I'm learning fast! Now aren't you Calgacus and Angus McLellan often on the same page, maybe you 2 are sockpuppets to each other. Certainly you behaved like so on the Irish language page referred to above.  Also I believe Angus McLellan has used bare IP numbers to make comment on certain pages.  Does that make him/her a sockpuppet.  BTW  what's the violation anyway.  Read the rules at the top of the page, you are supposed to make specific charges in relation to the use of the claimed sockpuppets. I see none! Bluegold 22:54, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Specific charges have been made. The charge is relevant and pertinent because on many occasions you and your socks have distorted the balance of consensus on particular pages (e.g. Harp, Irish language, Dál Riata) to try  to push a Irish nationalist POV, and have purposefully misled people, having one back up the other, pretending one is Scottish, one English, one American and one Irish to try to fake neutrality. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 23:02, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Excuse me, I take very great umbrage about the use of your words 'Irish nationalist POV'. You are sinking very very low in my estimation by such remarks. In fact you have revealed to me a lot about yourself and your mask has now slipped. I adhere to the principle that all Wikipedian editors should strive for the highest standards possible. -Bluegold 23:12, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

text: Also to note, I found yet another instance of multiple-socks backing each other up in a wiki talk page. On Talk:Migration Period art, Bluegold uses  to back himself up.  Compare Talk:Irish language where  has  back him up, or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Middle Ages where  is made to back up ; compare Talk:Harp where most of his socks are used. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 03:07, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
