I saw this too and was in the middle of an email to MaxSem asking why Scribblewiki was a sock. Looking through what Alsion has said on en.wiki looks like it was an unlawful checkuser block anyway. Just because someone uses the same IP doesn't make them the same user as someone else. There contribs are totally different.

All,
[[meta:User:MaxSem]] has removed [[meta:User:ScribblewikiLover]] from the list of board candidates, saying "rm troll". On ScribblewikiLover's talk page he says that "This user is blocked because he is a checkuser-confirmed sockpuppet of [[:en:User:Chris19910]] and had a few socks blocked on Meta."
I don't know what to say to this... Does anyone know anything more about this apparent saga? (presumably he was checkuser'd for a reason?)
Mike
