Suspected sockpuppets


This is complicated.

  1. Atlantic Channel is created in late April but doesn't edit till May. Refer here. When they do contribute, it takes the form of highly dubious quality about Assamese movies, often involving copyvios.
  2. Atlantic Channel engages in minor edit wars. Then leaves suddenly on May 19th.
  3. Urdumaniac is created the next day and continues identical behavior, except they claim to be Pakistani instead of Assamese. See here. There's no hiding it; just compare this to this and it'll immediately be obvious. This goes on until they are told to stop sockpuppetry on their talk page. I'm convinced this is just lies about ethnicity.
  4. Panama the Canal is created as a sleeper account. See here.
  5. Nigerian Spiderman is created and then shortly blocked for Vandalism-only Account. This may seem like just another case of fooling around on Wikipedia, but look at this. Solid giveaway, highly reminiscent of the master's behavior, if not identical.
  6. Panama the Canal makes their first edit: another solid giveaway.

I think it's quite obvious that these are all the same person, and I also believe that they have plenty more accounts stuffed up their sleeve. Therefore, I'm requesting CU to sort this whole mess out. Goodbye! GW Luxembourg (talk) 15:19, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Recreation of previously deleted article Shyon Keoppel, avoiding a direct recreation check by misspelling name as Shyon keoppel. Content and sources, as far as I can remember, largely identical. Since Ziggy 2milli was very clearly a paid editor; nobody had shown interest in this person previously; and they likely still have to deliver the goods, this strikes me as likely sockpuppetry. CU may be useful. Elmidae (talk · contribs) 23:16, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm ziggys friend and I can confirm that this is not sockpuppetry. I'm not sock either In really a friend. CheckUser can prove this. Ziggy's best friend (talk) 12:07, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What Ziggy's best friend is saying is true. Weallendz (talk) 12:17, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Zaggy 3centi (talk) 12:26, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, Chris Troutman is a noob biter. He bit Zaggy by giving him a level 4im warning when he's really only suppose to begin at 1 or 2.Legittalk2 (talk) 12:37, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That's not biting. You also reverted his reversion of the personal attack. InvalidOS (talk) 12:39, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the three additional suspected socks are not socks. CheckUser can confirm this. Legittalk2 (talk) 12:40, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The following account is likely related to Woshiyiweizhongguoren:

Additionally, this is probably some LTA with investigations and socks spread out all over the place. I wouldn't bother too much about that and tagging and stuff. -- zzuuzz (talk) 15:00, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And I've also blocked Goddap (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) as a likely sock or meatpuppet of Ziggy 2milli and Mezgee, per logs and deleted edits at Shyon keoppel, with some supporting CU evidence. -- zzuuzz (talk) 18:34, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Twixdee re-created content about Justin Klosky which Ziggy 2milli had created originally. I'm asking for CU to reveal the socks that doubtless have been created. Chris Troutman (talk) 14:05, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And all these joe-jobs are confirmed as the vandal we're calling Woshiyiweizhongguoren. -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:29, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Zzuuzz: I wouldn't call this a joe-job. If this case were moved, as was requested, then all of these socks would be confirmed. Meanwhile, because the report in clerk status won't be closed until the case is moved, it keeps getting longer and longer, not helped by good-faith users filing multiple reports when just one report with multiple users would do and create less work for us.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:20, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SanjayKHANman has vandalized the archive of this page; he was shortly reverted and blocked, however. But I noticed that another user named Blujay26 has engaged in uncannily similar behavior, requesting the creation of and editing the same articles as other suspected and confirmed socks. Not only that, the two socks' user pages were identical, before SanjayKHANman's was deleted. All of this seems to strongly suggest that these two accounts are operated by the same person, but I do believe that a CheckUser check would be helpful in confirming this, as well as determining if there are any more accounts that I missed.

SanjayKHANman and Blujay26 are  Technically indistinguishable, Red X Unrelated to Immirzakhan, and  Likely to Woshiyiweizhongguoren (talk · contribs · count).
