It's just a bunch of unsubstantiated accusations Anthere.
Nothing interesting really.

Waerth apparently is soliciting for a permanent ban.

I, for one, would appreciate a fair and accurate translation.

Since Waerth is Dutch himself, he is the one to provide one in the
first place.

I the meantime I will discuss the matter briefly; refering to http://
meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CheckUser_Policy#Wikimedia_privacy_policy

Well first, Waerth uses the subject "The mods destroy proof of their
abuse of power".
Apparently he is refering to the fact that his complaint is no longer
to be read in De Kroeg (Dutch villagepump).
However his complaint was only moved - to the backroom of De Kroeg.
At NL this is standardprocedure for wild accusations as Waerth is
knowing very well.

In the bodytext Waerth complaints about user Walter who blocked the
IP-address Waerth was using for sockpuppetry.
Waerth states:

1) checkuser is a tool for stewards
2) checkuser can be used in a case of utmost emergency only, to find
the IP-address of somebody severely vandalizing the wiki
3) Walter used checkuser; proof: he blocked my (Waerths) IP-address
4) by using checkuser Walter violated all regulations concerning
checkuser
5) Walter violated my (Waerths) privacy
6) Walter violated the rule that checkuser should be restricted to
emergencies only
7) Walter violated the rule that the use of checkuser needs the
agreement of several people

I will refute this as follows:

1) The CheckUser Policy states ""Only a very few editors and Stewards
are allowed to have the CheckUser status. Editors will only have
CheckUser status locally."
It follows checkuser is not restricted to stewards. Besides: Walter
*is* steward of nl.wikipedia, plus he is approved for checkuser
capability.
2) It also states: "The tool is to be used to fight vandalism or
check abuse of sockpuppets, for example when there is a suspicion of
illegal voting."
It follows the use of checkuser is not restricted to vandalfighting.
It can be used for investigation into sockpuppetry as well.
In this particular case, Waerth was using several sockpuppetts to
escape a ban. The use of checkuser for an investigation into
sockpuppetry is in accordance with the CheckUser Policy then.
3) Strictly speaking there is no evidence for this; though it sounds
reasonable. However Waerth should proof his accusation first.
4) Again: Walter used checkuser for an investigation into Waerth
escaping a ban by means of sockpuppets, in accordance with the
CheckUser Policy.
5) At http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciaal:Ipblocklist a IP-block by
Walter is mentioned. It reads as follows:

Op 15 jun 2006 22:58 (vervalt op 17 jun 2006 22:58) blokkeerde Walter
(Overleg): 203.144.160.245 (bijdragen) (ipadres van actieve sokpopper)

I'll translate the entry:
On 15 jun 2006 22:58 (ends on 17 jun 2006 22:58) Walter (Discussion)
blocked: 203.144.160.245 (contributions) (ipaddress of active
sockpuppeteer)

Though other moderators mentioned Waerth while blocking other
sockpuppets of Waerth, *Walter* didn't.
So, no violation of privacy there.
6) Checkuser Policy states: "The tool is to be used to fight
vandalism or check abuse of sockpuppets, for example when there is a
suspicion of illegal voting."
Therefore the use of checkuser is not restricted to emergencies;
Walter didn't violate the policy then.
7) NL doesn't have an Arbitration Committee yet. Therefore the
relevant rule is: "The community must approve at least two CheckUsers
per consensus. Activity will be checked mutually." NL has two users
that are approved for checkuser capability. Whether they investigated
the case at hand together, as the Checkuser Policiy seems to indicate
should be the proper procedure, I don't know. But Waerth is the one
to substantiate his accusation here that they didn't, and he doesn't.

I would say the accusations of Waerth are not substantiated enough
and to a great extent they can be simply refuted by pointing to the
relevant lines in the Checkuser Policy, as I have demonstrated above.

I think Waerth should withdraw his accusations and stop trolling.

Ironically, if Waerth had not complained, nobody would have known it
was his IP-address. After all it was just a Thailand-based IP-address.
Nobody could know for sure it was Waerths.

That's true, it's a fact that blocked IP's appear in the block log. That's
normal, that's the case with any block and no reason for a complaint.

One time Waerth even released *my* IP in the block log. He blocked HIMSELF
and used my IP as a description. I never understood that, but it's no
problem, because I even placed a note myself at the userpage of my IP. But
now Waerth has no reason to complain about the fact that his IP is in the
block log.

Frankly - if you don't want your IP address to appear on the block log,
then don't break the rules by using sockpuppets to circumvent a ban.

I'm sorry Waerth, but from all I've read here - you are the one in the
wrong. Checking where the sockpuppets were coming from, and blocking
the address shown, are normal and correct.

(And this is a local issue, I think it should go to local mailing lists now)

It went to the local list *as well*. And better: There is a discussion about
it at the local NL.wiki. At the local wiki there is a copy of the complete
text of Waerths original email as well.

Yes, checkuser is a tool to find sockpuppets and people avoiding
blocks and bans. You were caught.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

Thanks for the translation Henna

I do not think it is written anywhere that the tool should be used only
in case of emergencies. Usually, the only reason for emergency reaction
is that the logs are kept only for a limited amount of time.

It is worth noting that the sockpuppets might have been created on
purpose by a third party, in the intention of doing prejudice on Waerth.
If that had been so, Waerth would have been more than happy if a
checkuser had revealed he was not the sockpuppet holder.

I do not see any abuse in what Walter did.

with a lot of sockpuppets.
