the block was not lengthened for the edits on his talk page; it was over
possible block evasion and further incivility. If the Request for
CheckUser concludes that the IP is indeed RunedChozo, the block is most
certainly valid. Otherwise, perhaps it will go back to the original
forty-eight hours. However, I don't appreciate the accusations (not from
you, George) of this being some Muslim Guild conspiracy. It's not; I'm
not even a member of the Muslim Guild.

If this sort of evidence is not posted in the ANI discussion, user talk
page, or in the block message, it's a little hard for other admins to figure
out that there are other evasion claims outstanding...
Note that the time-of-day of edits by (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/70.114.237.14 ) are
completely outside hours of the day when RunedChozo has typically edited
before, and predate his being blocked by a day. A reasonable suspicion
could be made based on targets and content, but you might want to checkuser
this first and extend a block for evasion later...
