Basic information
JAT6634 (talk · contribs · block log · arb · SPI confirmed suspected)
Comprehensive edits analysis
Prolific 15-year-old sockpuppetteer (over 200 socks at October 2011) who uses Wikipedia as a webhost for fantasy football articles.
Targeted areas, pages, themes
Entries mainly to user pages, occasional hoax articles about football teams or matches
Habitual behavior
Usual behaviour is to set up new accounts, sometimes several a day, and use their user pages for hoax/fantasy fake articles, mainly about football teams or matches, featuring him and his two best friends as captain, main goal-scorer etc. Sometimes articles are about a band called "JAT" or a football team called "Burton Swifts" (a former real team which he has revived for his fantasies). Recently occasional real hoax articles have been inserted.

Other notes
Personal details omitted here for privacy reasons, but he has given them freely. Admins can read them in deleted article James H7. Acather96 (talk) and Ebe123 (talk) contacted his school in March 2011 and September 2011 respectively, with no effect on his activity except perhaps a short pause; from the timings, he does not normally edit from school.
