2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

User talk:RobSmith/Checkuser results show RobSmith and Joaquin Martinez use same IP

From RationalWiki

This is a Checkuser request I ran on myself for IP:198.30.180.96 on July 17, 2011, after spending three days undoing range blocks. It confirmed what I suspected, that some Conservapedia sysops may not have been trained properly in reading Checkuser results, and users who have not abused editing privileges may have been unfairly blocked.

The first result was for a User:Custer (note, although the username Custer is returned, Custer's IP is not the one I put in Checkuser), then active on talk Main Page. A separate Checkuser result for username Custer returned several other IPs for Custer. As you scroll down the list, other username appear quite a way down after my own. Toward the far latter half, you will encounter the name of Conservapedia sysop User:Joaquin Martinez, and his alternate account User:JMR10. User:Joaquin Martinez and myself are not the same user.

It is my belief several Conservapedia sysops have not been adaquately trained how to do range blocks or read checkuser results, and this has had an adverse impact on the project. Many good faith users may have been denied access for several years now. RobSmithI have been defamed by anonymous CP trolls 20:40, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
