The account hasn't edited in a year. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:21, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
Creating directory entries on sportspeople in user space then moving to main, re-creating articles written by SvG and deleted in the cleanup. Guy (Help!) 13:59, 31 May 2018 (UTC)

Either SvG or Slowking4 / Beatley. See e.g. Teng Yen Min, which is an identical recreation of this (admin-only deleted page), including the "retrieved" date, the Getty image, ... This is not something one creates identical by sheer luck. Fram (talk) 14:53, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
From the style of the interaction on the talk page, this is pretty clearly Slowking4, so this SPI should be moved and the user and other sockpuppets detected by checkuser tagged correctly. Choess (talk) 20:23, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
14 articles created in a day, 11 of them previously created by SvG and deleted. Most prior edits are creations of similar articles, initially in userspace and moved straight to main, then direct in main once autoconfirmed achieved. Guy (Help!) 13:59, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
IP is located in the Netherlands and is editing on articles relating to the Olympics and cycling. Edit summaries are mainly one word, pretty much the same style as SVG. Examples:

Blocked and tagged per WP:DUCK. Filing for the record. GABgab 15:03, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
Months after removal of links to SvG sock-created articles on minor sports people, this Dutch-speaking editor restores the links. Guy (Help!) 00:43, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

@JzG: Gap9551 is years older than the master and has almost 50K edits at en.wiki alone with zero blocks. You're going to need to present a lot more behavioral evidence, including diffs, to justify any action here.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:12, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
Both accounts engage in mass creation of stub biographies of athletes, with a particular focus on women, cyclists, and the Netherlands (see contribs, article creations [9][10], userpages [11][12]). Sander.v.Ginkel was originally sanctioned because their BLP articles were often poorly referenced and contained errors (see the ANI case); similar issues have been reported with SportsOlympic's editing [13][14][15]. At ANI Sander.v.Ginkel admitted to mass creating articles using a template, which meant that errors in the template could be propagated across many articles, see e.g. this string of article creations containing the same typo [16][17][18]. SportsOlympic also seems to be doing this; see these consecutive creations which incorrectly refer to "taekwondo" instead of "judo" [19][20][21][22]. The two accounts' timecards are very similar, [23][24] and they frequently use identical edit summaries: [25][26][27][28][29][30], [31][32][33][34][35][36], [37][38][39][40][41][42]. Note especially the unusual habit of creating personal life sections with the heading "Personal": [43][44][45][46][47][48]. Spicy (talk) 01:39, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

Pro forma. IP from Woerden (where SvG lives) with interest in Olympians and athletes. A number of behavioral similarities that I'm happy to discuss off-wiki with other clerks or admins. [49] and [50] clinch it, showing accidental/indifferent switches between logged-out and logged-in editing back before SportsOlympic was blocked. There is no real chance that SvG and this IP from the same city coincidentally edited the same pages at the same times, in addition to having a variety of behavioral similarities. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 07:40, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

The IP was banned for 18 months and now they've returned and continued their draft creation. It's an open-and-shut case. Since their comeback, they've already received several warnings on their talk regarding vandalism. Some of their edits are fine tho. But as the last admin to block this IP stated: I thus feel I would be defying the mandate the community has given me as an admin if I did anything but block here. I also feel they should not be allowed to edit regardless of how constructive their edits are — without any sort of formal appeal or apology from their main account. [That's for admins to decide but as it stands, this IP should be blocked, and their remainder drafts/creation should be CSD'd.] X (talk) 15:35, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
