==Modus operandi==

General Tojo is a sockpuppeteer that was indefinitely banned on June 22, 2006 for disruption. He currently uses sockpuppets to evade bans. Tojo has over 400 suspected sockpuppets.

He also has a known history of POV pushing against [[Parkinson's disease]] and [[dissociation]]. This user has also edited [[atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki]]. Should this happen, revert this and block the sockpuppet(s) immediately. Then tag the sock user name with either template: {{[[Template:Blockedsock|Blockedsock]]|General Tojo}} or {{[[Template:Sockpuppet|Sockpuppet]]|General Tojo}} and hit the user talk page with {{tl|sockblock}}.

For reasons that are not clear, Tojo is lately preoccupied with attacking other users with claims of child molestation or paedophilia [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AChris_73&diff=68177246&oldid=68175654].

He has recently been adding links to his new website, viartis.net[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Parkinson%27s_disease&curid=6302185&diff=68698634&oldid=68697860]. Handily enough, a whois lookup [http://www.whois.net/whois_new.cgi?d=viartis&tld=net] confirms what some had suspected, but which GT had refuted: that he is Mr. Keith Bridgeman, alive and kicking (despite that fatal car crash).

Note: General Tojo appears to be using Sockpuppets to revert additions made by several editors, including {{User|PaulWicks}} and {{User|Jfdwolff}}.

07/01/08 General Tojo is back, following activity on the National Parkinson's Foundation site. Current incarnation appears to be {{User|Roger_Dunkan}}, keep on the lookout. --[[User:PaulWicks|PaulWicks]] ([[User talk:PaulWicks|talk]]) 22:07, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

See also [[User:Fred Bauder/GT]] for a list of sockpuppets.

==Range Blocks==
General Tojo is editing from the range of www.tiscali.com at 88.104.0.0 - 88.107.255.255. To block the entire Tiscali range it is necessary to make four blocks (since [[:Meta:Range blocks|Range blocks]] MediaWiki only support CIDR suffixes between 16 and 31):
*[[Special:Blockip/88.104.0.0/16|88.104.0.0/16]] (01011000.01101000.00000000.00000000)
*[[Special:Blockip/88.105.0.0/16|88.105.0.0/16]] (01011000.01101001.00000000.00000000)
*[[Special:Blockip/88.106.0.0/16|88.106.0.0/16]] (01011000.01101010.00000000.00000000)
*[[Special:Blockip/88.107.0.0/16|88.107.0.0/16]] (01011000.01101011.00000000.00000000)

I am requesting he be banned from editing anything to do with Parkinson's disease.
--[[User:PaulWicks|PaulWicks]] 16:33, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

==== Statement by {{user|Profsnow}} ====

Bridgeman considers himself to be the ultimate expert on Parkinson's Disease, and does not tolerate any contributions not in accord with his views. His attitude is a difficult one on a collaborative project such as this, and becomes impossible when he resorts to vandalism, personal attacks, and threats. --[[User:Profsnow|Dan]] 17:08, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

He just spent the morning vandalizing my user page and tracking around to my contributions elsewhere, which he removed. There were also racist comments, viz: "comfort woman" left in my user and talk pages. My mother-in-law was a high school teacher in Korea during the Japanese occupation. She very bravely stood up to her principal and refused to teach in Japanese language, for which she was threatened with being sent off to be a "comfort woman". Not long after she had to flee, and went far north to teach before returning back to her home town later on. I find Bridgman's use of the term as a pejorative epithet particularly offensive. --[[User:Profsnow|Dan]] 14:50, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

And he's going around vandalizing again - Prof Johnson is the current incarnation, abd he used Dan Strickland (my name) earlier. I'm afraid I'll hit 3RR if he doesn't stop. He's vandalizing the Queen Min talk page, which has nothing whatsoever to do with the current controversy and whose editors will likely be befuddled by this. --[[User:Profsnow|Dan]] 17:48, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Let's not forget his other agenda, besides vindictiveness: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Parkinson%27s_disease&diff=41431848&oldid=41165769]] --[[User:Profsnow|Dan]] 18:54, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

This user is a sort of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. While this user has been at times civil and has made useful edits, the overarching theme of his and his sockpuppet's contributions have not been so positive in the past, including

I'm not sanguine that this user has the ability or willingness to consistently behave appropriately in the future. [[User:Andrew73|Andrew73]] 17:32, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

====Statement by {{user|Jfdwolff}}====
I was the admin who initially reported this user's appaling behaviour on [[WP:ANI]], and see a long record of sockpuppetry, serial abusive comments aimed at PaulWicks, malicious posting of Andrew73's personal information, being simply annoying (all his talkpage edits are in bold, and he refuses to stop as this is a matter of taste only). This is a troll whose potential knowledge on one medical conditions is vastly outweighed by his utter lack of collaborative skills.

I made a brief attempt at rehabilitating him in the persona of {{User|DiamondPlus}}, his nth sockpuppet he used to evade bans (apart from rotating ISPs). It was not a few days before he resumed his practice of reverting on the basis of poor logic simply because his judgement had been questioned (e.g. the list of conditions that can be mistaken for Parkinson's disease, which is unsupported by medical science unless Tojo's opinion is science).

Although we should not take offsite behaviour into account, it bears noting that this particular person has trolled several fora, and it is my view that a hard ban is unavoidable. [[User:Jfdwolff|JFW]]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[[User_talk:Jfdwolff|<small>T@lk</small>]] 22:53, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

==== Statement by {{user|DiamondPlus}} ====

It is my opinion that this user is a serial libeller, the AntiChrist, a war criminal, severely insane, a confirmed cannibal, and above all Bulgarian. This is not an appropriate site for Bulgarians and for that reason alone he should not be allowed to add to Wikipedia. Therefore, consistent with my views, I reject. --[[User:DiamondPlus|DiamondPlus]] 19:45, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

GT is a very agressive editor, quickly reverting to vandalism [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Chris_73&diff=62168374&oldid=62093267], ridiculing and threatening, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Parkinson%27s_disease&diff=63779379&oldid=63770879], lying, and trolling, also being completely resistant to other peoples views and suggestions (e.g. [[Talk:Parkinson's disease]]). Numerous sockpuppets and IP's were used to evade blocks and to vandalize and stalk pages. He was given a second chance as {{User|DiamondPlus}}, but continued his antisocial behavior until he got blocked again. I believe that his bad behavior vastly outweighs any valuable contribution. I personally blocked dozends of his sockpuppets, and received lots of vandalismin return. -- [[User:Chris 73|Chris 73]] | [[User talk:Chris 73|Talk]] 22:29, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

==== Statement by {{user|Jaranda}} ====
I first encountered Tojo in the [[Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki]] page where he was known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Parkinsons Parkinsons] and was viviously revert warning and using socks for days back in March. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Atomic_bombings_of_Hiroshima_and_Nagasaki&diff=43919871&oldid=43908595] After becoming inactive for several months, he started to do revert warning in the Parkinson disease page, using socks from the same 88 IP. Proof [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Emperor+Hirohito] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Japanese+historian]. I blocked alot of his socks and semi-protected the page, but he kept on creating more socks even vandalising my userpage quite a few times. The user had a long history of revert warning and sockpupperty for a while now and should be sent to arb com.

==== Statement by {{user|Netsnipe}} ====

What exactly is there to arbitrate? Is there a point even raising the issue of General Tojo with the Arbitration Committee? I ask this because General Tojo has demonstrated time and time again that he does not respect the policies of Wikipedia, so what makes anyone here think that he will respect the authority or process of Arbitration either? As my report to the Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive118#General_Tojo] has already demonstrated, General Tojo is the most brazen sock puppeteers (up to ~120 accounts) and hostile editors I have ever seen on Wikipedia. Any further attempts at reconciliating with him would be a waste of time as Tojo treats Wikipedia as a game where he is always right and he scorns anyone with real academic credentials. There is simply no reasoning with him anymore. The only action left to Wikipedia is ban his entire netblock from editing and/or force his ISP's hand. As long as we don't have any effective measures against General Tojo he will continue to treat this entire community with contempt and to act as if all Parkinson's Disease related articles are his own. -- <span style="border: 1px solid">[[User:Netsnipe|'''''<span style="background-color: #003333; color:White"> &nbsp;Netsnipe&nbsp;</span>''''']]'''[[User talk:Netsnipe|<span style="background-color:White; color:#003333">&nbsp;<sup>(Talk)</sup>&nbsp;</span>]]'''</span> 07:57, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

==== Comment by uninvolved party [[User:69.117.4.237|69.117.4.237]]====
Is arbitration really necessary for someone who has been permabanned if that party is not appealing his/her ban? In addition, it has already been mentioned many times that GT's IP range is 88.104.0.0/13, so why would arbitration be needed for this range block? 17:07, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

== 2008/2009 self promotion for book on [[Ferdinand Magellan]]==
Keith Bridgeman threw together some old texts and now calls himself editor of a book on Magellan (the real authors are all contemporary and dead since 500 years). In his usual habit he shamelessly self promotes his book on allpossible articles[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maximilianus_Transylvanus&diff=prev&oldid=225606334], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ferdinand_Magellan&diff=prev&oldid=225770742],
[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Antonio_Pigafetta&diff=222522059&oldid=220119445]
[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Antonio_Pigafetta&diff=prev&oldid=225192850][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Antonio_Pigafetta&diff=prev&oldid=225192850]
, while at the same time removing other valid references as ''foreign and incomplete, novelised biography, fictionalised'',etc. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&limit=500&target=Darvit+Chandhurai].

Articles that are manipulated are:
*[[Ferdinand Magellan]]
*[[Maximilianus Transylvanus]]
*[[Antonio Pigafetta]]
*[[Juan Sebastián Elcano]], and probably some more.
