Evading WP:3RR

• 1st Incident: On 24 July 2007 Sinhala freedom joined with an editwar regarding a {{fact}} tag in Parâkramabâhu I article and these two editors started to evade 3RR by reverting five times by each other. Watchdogb was later blocked for 23 hours for this disruptive behavior.

• 2nd Incident: In the same day Sinhala freedom started to leave the {{totally-disputed}} tag on top of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam. When he reached to the maximum reversion limit of 3 on the tag, Watchdogb came to the support of Sinhala freedom and added the tag himself. When a dispute existed Sinhala Freedom directly request for page protection which is quite unfamiliar step for a newbie.

Trolling

• Not only these two users was evading WP:3RR, Sinhala freedom was also commenting (trolling) 17 times when User:Snowolfd4 was reported by User:Watchdogb and reporting to the behavior of editors to the WP:ANI.

• On July 26, 2007 a neutral uninvolved editor Ulflarsen regarding the tag dispute in Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam was sent an email and that proves that Sinhala freedom is a meat puppet.

Further evidence

• Sinhala freedom's actual article contributions are very limited. Of total of 173 edits, just 44 are edits to the mainspace, most of them are minor edits made recently like these;

• Internal linking
• Spacing
• Fixing grammar
• Wording

The rest of he's edits are to talkpages(53), usertalk pages(23) and Wikipedia mainspace(47) like WP:ANI and WP:ANI/3RR which is unusual behavior for a legitimate editor.--♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ ^{walkie-talkie} 19:51, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
