The accused sock puppet account created Joshua ben Joseph ( revision), which redirects to Jesus. Looking at the deletion logs for this page, three accounts did the exact same thing in 2016 - The redirect was deleted each time and all three accounts were blocked for being sockpuppets of Nipponese Dog Calvero. I'm creating in order to get more eyes on this and get input from others. To me, this seems too random to not be a coincidence... what do others think? ~Oshwah~ (talk) (contribs) 12:16, 18 June 2017 (UTC) reply

He was recognised by the [[United States]] [[United States Department of State|Department of State]] as a "hero acting to end modern day slavery".<ref>[https://www.state.gov/j/tip/rls/tiprpt/2006/67020.htm Heroes Acting To End Modern-Day Slavery]</ref> ==Early life== Nguyen Van Hung grew up in a [[lower middle class]] family outside of [[Bình Tuy Province]] in [[South Vietnam|South]] [[Vietnam]], with two brothers and five sisters; his father was a [[fisherman]], but died after a long battle with illness, forcing his mother, a devout [[Catholicism|Catholic]] with roots in the country's north, to become the family's main breadwinner. Nguyen Van Hung himself absorbed his mother's faith and devotion. He was an admirer of [[Francis of Assisi|Saint Francis of Assisi]], and reportedly stole food from his own family to feed to the poor. He left Vietnam in 1979 [[Vietnamese boat people|on an overcrowded boat]]; rescued by a [[Norway|Norwegian ship]] after just 36 hours and taken to [[Japan]], he joined the [[Missionary Society of St. Columban]] upon his arrival.<ref name = "Taipei Times">[http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/feat/archives/2006/10/01/2003330029 Where there's darkness …]</ref> He lived in Japan for three years, studying and taking a variety of jobs to support himself, including as a highway repairman, steel factory worker, and gravedigger. He first came to Taiwan in 1988 as a missionary, after which he went to [[Sydney]], [[New South Wales]], [[Australia]] to study at a [[seminary]]. He was [[ordination|ordained]] in 1991<ref name="Taipei Times"/> and returned to Taiwan the following year (in 1992). ==Work in Taiwan== Nguyen Van Hung established the Vietnamese Migrant Workers and Brides Office in [[Taoyuan, Taiwan|Taoyuan County]] (now Taoyuan City) in 2004 to offer assistance to [[Vietnamese people in Taiwan|Vietnamese immigrants in Taiwan]]. [[Vietnamese Americans|Vietnamese American]] radio station Little Saigon Radio and others helped him to rent the second floor of a grammar school; two seventy square foot rooms offer sleeping space, while two others are used for office space. They provide [[Mandarin Chinese|Mandarin]] classes, room and board, and legal assistance. Nguyen Van Hung's exposure of abuses against foreign laborers and brides led the United States Department of State to list Taiwan as a "Tier 2" region alongside countries such as [[Cambodia]] due to their lack of effort in combating [[human trafficking]], which proved a major international embarrassment for the island's government. His work has also made him the target of intimidation in Taiwan.<ref name = "Taipei Times"/> ==See also== *[[Catholic Church in Vietnam]] *[[Human rights in Vietnam]] *[[Vietnamese democracy movement]] ==References== {{Reflist}} ==External links== {{Commonscat|Peter Nguyen Van Hung}} *[http://vmwbo.com/ Vietnamese Migrant Workers and Brides Office] {{Authority control}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Nguyen Van Hung, Peter}} [[Category:1958 births]] [[Category:20th-century Roman Catholic priests]] [[Category:21st-century Roman Catholic priests]] [[Category:Living people]] [[Category:Missionary Society of St. Columban]] [[Category:Vietnamese anti-communists]] [[Category:Vietnamese democracy activists]] [[Category:Vietnamese dissidents]] [[Category:Vietnamese emigrants to Australia]] [[Category:Vietnamese exiles]] [[Category:Vietnamese expatriates in Taiwan]] [[Category:Vietnamese human rights activists]] [[Category:Vietnamese Roman Catholic priests]] -- This email was sent by user "George Chang Tsan-hung" on the English Wikipedia to user "PlyrStar93".

To my knowledge the username is extremely similar to this sock master's pattern, but it's unlikely for this master to make an edit like this one. Checked the edits at zhwiki and those do not fit into Nipponese Dog Calvero's behavior.

He first came to Taiwan in 1988 as a missionary, after which he went to [[Sydney]], [[New South Wales]], [[Australia]] to study at a [[seminary]]. He was [[ordination|ordained]] in 1991<ref name="Taipei Times"/> and returned to Taiwan the following year (in 1992). ==Work in Taiwan== Nguyen Van Hung established the Vietnamese Migrant Workers and Brides Office in [[Taoyuan, Taiwan|Taoyuan County]] (now Taoyuan City) in 2004 to offer assistance to [[Vietnamese people in Taiwan|Vietnamese immigrants in Taiwan]].

To my knowledge the username is extremely similar to this sock master's pattern, but it's unlikely for this master to make an edit like this one. Checked the edits at zhwiki and those do not fit into Nipponese Dog Calvero's behavior.
