Please
Hi, Jimbo. You is Steward on Meta-wiki and GodKing of Wikipedia.

Please, check sockpuppet of serious vandal, troll and puppeter on Russian Wikimedia Wikis.


 * checkuser: Afinogenoff@ruwiki (indefblocked vandal & troll)
 * checkuser: Innv@global (ruwikiquote, ruwikibooks, ruwiki and 47 other projects)
 * checkip: 83.149.52.0/22@global (see range contributions)
 * F: Evading blocks, bans and remedies issued by community
 * Supporting evidence: Please, check Afinogenoff and sockpuppet Innv, and IP Range 83.149.52.0/22. Innv = Afinogenoff, is 100% correct information, see evidence: Afinogenoff is strong and serious sockpuppeter. Afinogenoff@ruwiki has more 28 sockpuppets. Afinogenoff inclined to create a "female" account.


 * 83.149.52.0/22 - is official IP Range of Afinogenoff, sockpuppeter using this range on spam-listed resource (wiki.traditio.ru), and on Ru.wiki (provocations / vandalism / trolling)
 * Puppeteer use this ip range for trolling and provocations on RuWiki. See trolling, trolling, delete text, trollind on Arbcom vote page: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, request for arbitration: trolling, UPOV-pushing: 1, 2.


 * This is sockpuppet of serious vandal Afinogenoff, see Pauk's quote in LJ: [russian:А разве Таллирдиева фотки публиковала? И тоже УЖЕ не в Википедии.][english:How Tallirdieva photos published? And also not ALREADY in Wikipedia.][comment:Tallidieva is Afinogenoff's indefblocked virtual] - they wrote this on livejournal community ru_wikipedia.
 * Answer to this post: 1) AndyVolykhov:1) публиковала; 2) нет, в Википедии, под другим логином.][english:1) published; 2) No, in Wikipedia, under another username.]. 2) [AndyVolykhov:Фотка уже удалена, видимо. А ник сейчас, как писал админ меты на IRC-канале - Innv.][english: Photo has already been removed, apparently. A nick now, as the Meta-sysop wrote to IRC-channel - Innv.][comment:Innv=Tallirdieva=Afinogenoff].


 * There are similarities of style Innv and sockpuppets Afinogenoff:


 * Non-standart signature, with links to discussions, and contribution and anywhere. Please, compare: signature of T-tok, indefblocked virtual of Afinogenoff: t-tok, and Innv: --~ Innv s: and Afinogenoff (on listed in the spam list resource, wiki.traditio.ru): — Afin oge noff   §, and Dream (renamed Afinogenoff on spam listed resource): Dream .
 * Abundant use of smile all Afinogenoff's sockpuppets: see user talk T-tok and user talk Innv on Meta.
 * See almost two entirely back-phrase: in user talk Innv on Meta-wiki: Всегда пожалуйста! Если что обращайтесь :) and phrase on spam listed resource: Всегда пожалуйста, если что — обращайся.


 * Innv similar to AstroNomer-ru its activities - he also was productive with the party elected writing articles, but has been blocked for similar reasons - sockpuppetry.


 * Also, sockpuppet T-tok participants was very positive, even had received permission "patroller", but it was blocked for sockpuppetry - Afinogenoff was puppeteers.

Note: approximately July 11, 2008 Afinogenoff (as Dream on spam-listed resource) wiki-break and Innv also a thing of the Wiki-break. The appearance of activity Afinogenoff on spam-listed resource coincided coincides with an activity Innv on Wikimedia wikis.

A better deal for more serious topic wikia?
Hi Jimbo

I've recently set up a forum and polls on the subject of 'A better deal for more serious topic wikia?' on WikiSocial. It'd be great to get any comments you may have.

At a time when major concerns such as Google are becoming more and more interested in (and taking significant action on) topics such as the environment, climate change etc, is there a danger of Wikia looking like its getting left behind? I know you might point to investing in Green wikia, but it's specifically the issue of what wikia looks like to newcomers and juxtaposition of indiscriminate and potentially offensive advertising that really concerns me, Thanks Philralph @ sca21 08:23, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
