Johnny Joeson banned for sockpuppetry

[edit]

As you've probably seen, User:Johnny Joeson has been banned as a sockpuppet. Turns out you were right after all!

You're probably already be familiar with this, but just in case, I thought I should copy it here:

Anyone is free to revert any edits made in violation of a ban or block, without giving any further reason; such reverts are also exempt from being counted under the three-revert rule. This does not mean that edits must be reverted just because they were made in violation of a block or ban (changes that are obviously helpful, such as fixing typos or undoing vandalism, can be allowed to stand), but the presumption in ambiguous cases should be to revert.

(from WP:BLOCKREVERT)

I've already undone some of their changes to Exact Audio Copy. Thanks, CommonsKiwi (talk) 08:12, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for this comment! It appears that User:Johnny Joeson was likely one of numerous sockpuppets of User:Raxythecat, per Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Raxythecat, and per numerous sockpuppet investigations at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Raxythecat/Archive. • Sbmeirow • Talk • 04:18, 30 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Unexplained restoration of unnecessary disambiguation on township articles

[edit]

I noticed that you undid a large number of removals of unnecessary disambiguation without explaining why that was done. Your reversions feature the edit summary "Revert to proper naming". However, this is directly in contradiction with the guideline WP:PLACENAME, specifically the section §Minor civil divisions, which reads as follows (emphasis mine): Per a successful 2023 Village Pump proposal, minor civil divisions, such as townships, the name of a minor civil division should follow the convention of Division, State, only including the relevant county of a division in between division and state if there are multiple divisions of the same name in a state. Please undo your edits. I will continue moving articles to meet the standards of that guideline. Best, ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:46, 8 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
