User created article about Indonesian webzie Jakartabeat. When a CSD tag was placed on the page, a static IP based in Indonesia (http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/39.209.139.44) that has not edited before removed the CSD tag. See here (page history) and here (article talk). Osarius Talk 23:37, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

• I would agree that this is likely a case of sockpuppetry, see Talk:Jakartabeat for my participation. Dennis Brown (talk) 23:44, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

•  Clerk declined - CU won't connect an IP to an account. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 03:43, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

• So this image is incorrect then? The Get IPs button is useless? Osarius Talk 09:55, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

  

  It clearly says Get IPs

• This does work, except the decline is a procedural one due to the Privacy Policy & the checkuser policy. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 19:38, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

•  Clerk note: Warned IP. Probably was a bit of socking, but as far as I'm concerned it was one edit, and they have hence stopped. Definitely needs to be approached further if it recurs, but not a terribly serious issue as it stands. It has been quite a while since the incident in any case.
