Edits on both The Casagrandes and Left- and right-hand traffic, just like previous sock RobloxFan2021 (as well as same exact edit on The Casagrandes article- [1] vs. [2]). Likely a WP:DUCK case. Magitroopa (talk) 18:46, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also at same locations as previous socks including Animal Mechanicals, Lawnmower Man, Emily (Thomas & Friends), List of Thomas & Friends characters, and recreating Draft:Meese Sasquash from a previous sock. Quite clearly a DUCK now... Magitroopa (talk) 18:07, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DUCK- username quite clearly similar to other socks such as 'ElSapoViajero', 'FanAgustin2021', and 'El Fan de los Dibujos Animados y Anime'. Also similar target of articles including Thomas the Tank Engine-related articles, Animal Mechanicals-related articles, redirect vandalism, etc.

User page also falsely claims user is a Bureaucrat, also has real name in infobox which matches exactly with the sockmaster ('Agustín Sepúlveda Venegas'). More empty sandbox AfC submissions as well. Magitroopa (talk) 22:45, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Likely block evasion- at some of the usual suspect articles including Left- and right-hand traffic, Lawnmower Man, Elk, and List of animated television series by episode count. Seems like the IP was previously at 201.215.208.199 in April 2020, but unsure if there any others.

Also at Talk:SpongeBob SquarePants, which aligns with interests on previous sockpuppets such as SpongeBob SquarePants (character), The Casagrandes, and other Nickelodeon shows/animated series. Will also note that I seem to recall seeing a talk page message similar to this recently, but will update this if I can find it. Magitroopa (talk) 02:56, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Update: This is the 'similar talk page message' I was referring to... from previous sockpuppet FanAgustin2021, so yes, seems like the IP is likely a WP:DUCK with all this information/evidence. Magitroopa (talk) 03:05, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DUCK- not at usual articles (yet...) on en.wikipedia, but is on es.wikipedia and similar targets can already be seen there including Animal Mechanicals, The Lawnmower Man, PAW Patrol, etc. User tends to edit a lot over on es.wikipedia through socks that are already blocked here, so may need to go through past socks and see what accounts are/aren't global locked (and possibly apply global locks to those without it).

@BilCat: Seems likely based on the similar targets (for those wondering... Talk:Bob the Builder (2015) and Draft talk:Wheelchair Guy). Chile also matches up with previous IPs that were very clearly block evasion: see WHOIS of 181.202.84.72 vs. 190.47.62.250 and 201.215.197.227.

I've seen this user in the past, and honestly haven't thought this to be them- Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan (and later socks) seem (to me, at least) to go to the usual target places... such as Animal Mechanicals, Fishtronaut, etc. Still not entirely sure, but given that the user has recently edited El Chavo Animado (where previous accounts VegettaelRubiusxd and Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan have previously been), there's a possible chance this is them, but still, not 100% sure it is them. Magitroopa (talk) 05:30, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also going to note: if it is confirmed to be ASV2004Fan, they have accounts on many other Wikipedias as well, so global lock would likely be necessary. They are also on ES Wikipedia like previous socks, but interesting to note that they don't seem to be at the usual targeted articles on there... so if it is confirmed to be a sock, it seems they may have been trying to be more careful/unsuspecting with this one. Magitroopa (talk) 05:37, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Disappointing. They have extremely similar editing patterns and styles, but if CU is gospel than I won't contest. Nonetheless I reckon VSBF2004 will trip over themselves at some point and make an identical edit to ASV2004F, and we'll be right back here. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 20:25, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not 100% sure on this one (checkuser may be needed), but has similar article interests including Thomas & Friends, Bob the Builder, PAW Patrol, and The Fat Controller. Username is also similar to previous socks, including both a year and 'fan' (similar to 'RobloxFan2021', 'FanAgustin2021', 'HappyWheelsFan2022', and others). Their user page also sounds similar to previous socks (such as [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], and [11]).

On top of all that, the user is unwilling to follow MOS, constantly edit warring, changing content with no source/explanation, and is attacking other users as well. Even if this is not them, the user seems to be WP:NOTHERE either way, but the above information sounds similar to past socks that it seems like enough to bring here.

Both have created this article, Bigfood and ElChavoYChespirito posted an unblock notice on the talk page of ElSasquatchChileno. The other page creator of Bigfood was RobloxFan2021 who was judged to be a sockpuppet of Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan so perhaps this case should be transferred over to Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan's SPI case.

Okay, here's a new twist, this time, the sockpuppet creates pages and then immediately tags them for deletion. All of the page deletion notices on their user talk pages are ones they gave themselves.

First off, username is similar to previous socks (including RobloxFan2021, HappyWheelsFan2022, FanAgustin2021, and El Fan de los Dibujos Animados y Anime) as well as the master account, Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan.

Secondly, the user page says the user is from Chile (as with previous socks) and includes, "Sasquashes!!!!" (which I believe should be pretty self-explanatory...)

Finally, articles edited are similar to targets, including Garbage truck and Fire engine (previous sock mentioned above had edited Semi-trailer truck), new empty sandbox created (similar to previous socks), as well as the creation of Talk:List of Turbo Fast episodes/Archive 1 (List of Turbo Fast episodes should do the telling...).

And then finally finally, how ironic, they edited their talk page saying, "Nothing can block me" and, "Yeah! I will not violate English Wikipedia." (Yeah... except creating yet another sock/new account is doing exactly that).

Anyways, TL;DR- pretty much WP:DUCK with the above evidence. Magitroopa (talk) 12:01, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, seems like they've been actively evading still, continuing through IPs such as 190.47.62.250 and even more in the /32 range. Seems like a block on the /32 range might be necessary, although might be a bit extensive.
Additionally, could this be looked into? Seems a bit odd that an IP they've been actively evading blocks on would post a random unblock request for some random user. Is it possible that Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan is also a sock as well and that the master could possibly be Halifaxfilm, going back as far as 2008?... (articles on Halifaxfilm also match up, including targets Bo on the Go! and Animal Mechanicals... and Halifaxfilm is actually the creator of the Animal Mechanicals article!)

I look on my CSD log occasionally to see if pages that were tagged and deleted were recreated and in this case, File:Kenny the Shark logo.png, which was previously creaetd by Muquark, led me to SasquashFan2.

Was not entirely sure about this one at first- mostly thought that the current user page seems to be similar to past socks, and that the inclusion of 'Fan' and a year in the username is similar to previous socks as well. The filter log is what told me my thinking was correct- specifically the first log regarding 'possible SPI disruption' here at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan. Is already on typical targeted articles on other Wikis, so global lock likely needed as well. Magitroopa (talk) 03:42, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Based on username alone, they have used variations of both of these names before with previous socks. They also reached out to me on my user talk page to talk about CSD G5 page deletions and I've done a few of those with these sockpuppets. And also a request not to be blocked which is part of their early behavior when they create a sock. Any chance that a range-block would be possible here? At least they make themselves easy to spot.

Clear WP:DUCK: randomly thanked me for an edit on this SPI, also triggered edit filter here. Note the 'Fan' + year in username, as well as user page similar to past ones. Finally, note Draft:Spitfire 2 and that this IP of theirs is currently blocked, previously editing at Supermarine Spitfire.

Seriously- no clue why they keep making themselves so obvious, but whatever. Magitroopa (talk) 21:05, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

New user gaming the system by making dummy edits to their userpage and then created an RfA. Looking at their xwiki-contribs I believe it could be a sock of this farm based on them creating hy:The Loud House. It had been created once in the past by blocked sock AlmostNakedAnimalsFan2022. – NJD-DE (talk) 00:06, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

They also created hi:बिगफ़ुट, a Hindi article about Bigfoot. Looking at this SPIs archive, Bigfoot/Bigfood is a known topic of interest. – NJD-DE (talk) 00:11, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed the creation of the user account IHateSockpuppets, in which the username itself gave me suspicion. Nonetheless, I waited for the user to begin editing before I investigated further. Once the user did, they added things like this to their user page. "I hate sockpuppets and being blocked" implies that this (apparently new) user knows about sockpuppetry - which is almost always not the case with legitimate new users in my experience, and also implies that this user has been blocked before. Upon investigating and looking through technical data, the users here are a result of this investigation. All accounts are indefinitely blocked and tagged; this SPI report is being created retro-actively for record-keeping and historical purposes. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:16, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The 'Agustin' and '2004' should be enough in correlation with the sockmaster name. Either way, same targeted articles such as Bob the Builder, Postman Pat, Fireman Sam, etc. as well as recreations of things such as Template:Fireman Sam and Category:PAW Patrol.

Seems WP:DUCKy- username 'Sasquatchcito' relating to their usual sasquatch edits/past socks (examples such as Sasquark and ElSasquatchChileno).

Two others things:
1. The sock is active and multiple Wikis, so a global lock would be a good idea.
2. The sock has already been indefinitely blocked on da.wikipedia for abusing multiple accounts (gee, I wonder...)
Just to add on to the already-obvious... Magitroopa (talk) 04:16, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Lastly:
1. "Please do NOT revert my edits" - that sounds familiar... (same here as well)
2. Now triggering the edit filter here and attempting to request deletion for this SPI like they have in the past.
Should be fairly obvious as a WP:DUCK at this point and get global lock as well. Magitroopa (talk) 04:29, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nickelodeonfan2023 is 100% Agustin- can easily tell with the above report + additional evidence. However, last report here was back in August... might I suggest a sleeper check for any others? Don't want to rush to any conclusions, but I've just come across Thomasfan1916... username is kind of related (has interest in Thomas once more, 'fan' in username, as well as a year in the username). The edits honestly don't immediately look to me like Agustin... apart from things like this and this. Especially with the, "I will not be blocked indefinitely" it sounds like Agustin to me, though maybe could be a sock relating to another SPI- it at least sounds like it's a sock of someone. Either way, main point: suggesting a sleeper check. Magitroopa (talk) 19:18, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like they've been operating under 181.202.0.0/16 for quite some time as well; many edits under the range (especially ones like this...) should make that quite clear, so I would suggest a block on that range as well. Magitroopa (talk) 20:12, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
