Basic information

Comprehensive edits analysis
Has never registered accounts. Came to the attention of the ref desk community by using a series of "aliases" signed next to his IP signature. Eventually exhausted the patience of the community with repeated trolling and pretense of being different people, in contravention of WP:SOCK. Here was his initial ban notice. After being banned, he continued to edit the ref desks, at times deliberately trolling, and at times asking what appear at first to be good faith questions. As of May 2016, his most recent posts to the ref desks have been requests for translation of large blocks of text from German (see 1.122.104.241 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) for latest incarnation.

Habitual behavior
[edit]Likes to occasionally play games denying he's "Wickwack", often by showing up under other Perth IP addresses to deny that he's not the one who was identified as Wickwack.
Cases
