:It can't be one of your [[AWR]] unless you think the [[Wikipedia]] [[GodKing]] makes such rants, and is also a [[142.X.X.X]]. Which is not out of the question.

"When we have the situation that some individual is suspected of being | |||
the reincarnation of a banned user, many, including some sysops start by | |||
acting on their suspicions rather than seeking out hard evidence. There | |||
is rarely a need for hasty action when the suspect is confining his | |||
activities to a handful of articles; there will always be time to fix | |||
this when the issue is clarified. | |||
... incessant gnattering about whether someone's edits resemble those of a banned user serves no useful purpose.... | |||
There is a serious need for some people to start understanding what | |||
standards of proof are all about." - [[Ray Saintonge]][http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2004-June/013498.html] | |||
