KANGAROO EXPERT

Both have started editing today. All edits are vandalism. All to Kangaroo except one edit to Koala. Compare edits: [1] [2]. Their edit summaries are similar, KANGAROO EXPERT's being "expert information" and KRF's being "results of research by the Kangaroo Research Foundation". --AmaryllisGardener talk 12:43, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They are likely the same user but based on where they are editing from it is possible they are not. Either way they have been blocked for vandalism for the time being so they hopefully forget about us and move on. If they return after the block I will put sock blocks on them. -DJSasso (talk) 13:00, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Djsasso: Uh oh. --AmaryllisGardener talk 01:48, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Djsasso and Bsadowski1: Again. Can one of you protect Kangaroo because of the socks? --AmaryllisGardener talk 02:00, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@AmaryllisGardener:Had protected it the other night (5/29) for a short time 1 week. Hopefully they will forget about it by then. If not we can re-protect. -- Enfcer (talk) 03:38, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thanks. I'll be on the lookout when the protection expires. --AmaryllisGardener talk 17:52, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Two IPs

Both have been making the same kind of vandalism, which includes changes to data such as birth dates. Macdonald-ross (talk) 07:41, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well as you may or may not be aware we can't connect IPs to user accounts publically so we can't actually do much on this request. -DJSasso (talk) 12:52, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks. Macdonald-ross (talk) 15:27, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse

Those two are vandalizing articles. 108.194.238.251 (talk) 01:02, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Alirio and Alirio 2.0

Newly-created user Alirio 2.0 has similar name to currently-blocked user User:Alirio. He recreated Alirio's page User:Alirio/sandbox after that page was deleted at RfD. --Auntof6 (talk) 21:29, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

From what I can see, these two match (as in: ip, and user agent). There are also other accounts which were created from the same IP address; so far I have not acted on these, as their user agent is different, they were autocreated here and have not edited. --Eptalon (talk) 21:38, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
After a little chat with eptalon, I've also blocked Flixtoon (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log)), Loomlol (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log)) and Bailar (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log)) who technically belong to the same person. I also checked the underlying IP on meta which confirms our findings here. I'd say it's a nice little farm. I'm not sure, but maybe also the master account should be blocked indef. -Barras talk 22:05, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting user:Doof123 to be checkusered. Same type of editing as Alirio & socks. Also, if this user is confirmed to be a sock, then I'd ask the CU to indef Alirio too. Pmlineditor (t · c · l) 19:55, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Confirmed by Bsadowski1. All indefed. Pmlineditor (t · c · l) 19:59, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dao98 and Dao57k

User Dao98 created Dao ranaldo. I QD'd it for lack of notability. After it was recreated and re-deleted two more times, I salted it. After that, the user created Dao ranaldo (MC) and Young rhymes (MC) with the same content, which I also deleted.

After all that, user Dao57k created Young rhymes (MC), which was deleted, recreated, and deleted again.

The fact that these users created the same content within such a short time is the reason for this request. I also draw your attention to en:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dao2k/Archive, which appears to be related to the same user(s) and articles. Thank you. --Auntof6 (talk) 07:13, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty much a en:WP:DUCK case but I did verify with CU and blocked. -DJSasso (talk) 13:38, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, DJ. Could I please a couple more to this same group? The following user created articles about the same person.
I blocked the second one, but you might have some special block settings for socks that I don't know about. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 04:38, 28 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Based on the edits, and the data, I'd say  Confirmed. I blocked the account. -Barras talk 13:16, 28 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
