User:Arjayay/Patrick Bourke

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Problem[edit]

  • IP (presumably Patrick Bourke) trying to pretend they are the leader, or lead guitarist, of numerous, fantasy, bands.
  • Fantasy bands often include darts players as "members"
  • Also adds that name to real bands.
  • Edits other articles so they appear to support the fantasy
  • Also pretends he is a professional darts player
  • Claims to be Patrick Bourke from Limerick, Ireland, born 28 March 1999 [1] (since deleted)
  • Claims to be Patrick O'Bourke from Limerick, Ireland, born 28 March 1999 (age 23) at User talk:Patrick Bourke (written in January 2017 - so dates don't add up)
  • Earliest edit found - 21 Dec 2016 [2] (IP that created User talk:Patrick Bourke in Jan 2017)
  • Changed over time from mostly music articles, to mostly darts articles, and occasionally adds other sports (pool, Gaelic football etc.)
  • Links people to wrong places - e.g. Ballybunion
  • Will sometimes make a few good edits if he knows he is being watched
