One relatively brief day of adminning enwiki and I find myself blocking the sockpuppets of
no fewer than three separate returning banned users. Hkelkar, Ararat arev, and
BryanFromPalatine, if anyone's interested. Is this a normal experience for my fellow
admins?
And do we do enough to keep banned users off Wikipedia? Should we chase them up in real
life a little more? After all, I believe we do know who at least two out of the above
three are. Wikipedia is hardly sinking under a deluge of banned users, but a little more
proactiveness would be nice on this front. Is protecting articles from a specific user or
IP range technically possible?
