Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Archive22

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I noticed that there are 2 users working hard about the same actor BLP (the 1st user made this as Suprava mondal). This similarity can also be found in enwiki (w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Rani147). MathXplore (talk) 13:22, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Different IP address, similar browser, no match...? Eptalon (talk) 19:50, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User talk vandals

Brandon38Wynn45 adds random talk page meessages that were reverted to User talk:Johannnes89 and User talk:Iggy the Swan. They were reverted. Then this new user, Daisy65Burton13, went and reverted the reversion of the edits. Their usernames also very similar. --Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:54, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-CheckUser observation) Not sure CU action is needed here since both accounts are globally locked forever.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 12:04, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TeraBox and Sloth Mafia accounts

The 1st user has a spam username block. The 1st to 3rd user is involved in TeraBox, and the 4th and 5th user is involved in the enwiki draft version (w:Draft:TeraBox (cloud storage)). The 5th user is the latest account and appeared after the block of the 1st user. Can so many accounts appear in one page during a short term?

Also the 5th user made Sloth Mafia, and please note that w:Sloth Mafia is made by a user (w:User_talk:Frket#Speedy_deletion_nomination_of_Sloth_Mafia)) who is believed to be related with w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/TheCaseOfGoliath that includes the following simplewiki registered users:

There are also locked accounts in the enwiki SPI, but they are not registered in simplewiki. However, this suggests the concern of possible lock evasion.

If there is any user connected with the 6th and 7th user, then I will consider contacting stewards and/or request another enwiki SPI. MathXplore (talk) 03:45, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please also note that the 5th user is already listed up in w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/EuphonyRandolph, where the following locked accounts are involved:
Please check the relations between these locked accounts and the 5th user. MathXplore (talk) 04:05, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your Pritam

Please check new user Yourpritamgmailom with PritamMondal2022 who was blocked here in May 2024. This is a account that quickly edited an IP article creation here (Pagal Premi) which features Yash Daasguptaa which tends to be a focus for YP socks. On enwiki, Yourpritamgmailom created w:Pagol Premi that is this article. The user name is similar to previous socks w:Category:Suspected_Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Your_Pritam. Ravensfire (talk) 02:48, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-checkuser observation) The corresponding SPI is w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Your Pritam. MathXplore (talk) 02:52, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Again, there appears no relationship on simplewiki. fr33kman 15:18, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Behgal Jats accounts

The 2nd user made Behgal Jats (caste), and the 1st user did special:diff/9681565 and special:diff/9681578 for User:Backupwiki/Behgal Jats. If there is no CU evidence then I would like to allow further improvement in the userspace per WP:AGF, but I think there is a need to know their relations. MathXplore (talk) 01:43, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that the 1st user is listed up in w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Truthfindervert as well as

Non-English w:WP:NOTWEBHOST user page issues

I'm reporting 2 users involved in WP:NOT (w:WP:NOTWEBHOST) user page issues. Their user pages look like similar tone/script that would not be a draft for simplewiki articles, and please note that the 1st user made the user page of the 2nd user (special:redirect/logid/2782027). MathXplore (talk) 06:52, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, 3 of the 4 numbers of the IPv4 match; this leaves 254 possible candidates, but no,no direct overlap. Hoewever, you could likely delete the page as 'not written in Enlish'. To me this looks like an Indian script... Eptalon (talk) 09:24, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pseudo-rollbackers and proxy revert requests around south Asian topics

I would like to report a new account (Alan Charlotte, AC) that has similarities with Hcsrctu (2nd user) and Hashid Khan (HK, 4th user). The 3rd account is already CU-blocked with the 2nd user, and their relations are explained in w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/HinduKshatrana.

The 1st similarity I noticed is the edit summary style. AC is using a rollback-like edit summary in their first move in Chandel (special:diff/9662551). The 2nd user has used rollback-like edit summaries many times (special:diff/9646542, special:diff/9641299, special:diff/9641294, etc.), and they also have interests in Chandel (special:diff/9540320, special:diff/9511013). Would different users start using similar edit summaries in similar topics in a short term?

The 2nd similarity that I found is proxy revert requests around south Asian topics. The 2nd user previously made proxy revert requests (special:diff/9511013) for Rajput, Rajputization, and Chandel. AC already made a new proxy revert request (special:diff/9672467) for Rajput toward the same editor. Would different users request revert for a same page toward a same editor in a short term?

In addition, special:diff/9672467 requests the restoration of special:permalink/9631362, when the change of Sarcastic kshatriya (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log)) (SK, alternative account is $arcastic kshatriya (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log))) has been reverted. This implies that AC is part of the content dispute between SK and other users/IPs partially including the 2nd user (Special:Diff/9631799, Special:Diff/9632800, special:diff/9545962, etc.), and I already blocked an IP range that repeated over-reverts, etc. [1] and the estimated master (4th user, special:redirect/logid/2765016) that usually fought against SK. Do we usually have newcomers jumping into content disputes? MathXplore (talk) 06:56, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Note) Related recent local CU request is Special:Diff/9653051. MathXplore (talk) 06:59, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, AC has used {{uw-vandalism2}} against another user that they confronted in a content dispute (User talk:103.46.201.196, special:redirect/logid/2777978). Labelling opponents in a content dispute as vandalism is a similar style already used by the 2nd user (special:diff/9541417, special:diff/9540312) and the IPs possibly connected to the 4th user (Special:Diff/9631799Special:Diff/9632800). I don't think all newcomers will quickly learn about template substitution. MathXplore (talk) 07:13, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The data in the simplewiki dB shows no overlap between accounts or IPs. As such we'll have to block for other causes or take the word of the enwiki CUs and the stewards. I have no problemsing either. fr33kman 15:28, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is an IP overlap (both users using the same IP) of Gigi1233 and Jauwad2024, Bamalli01 and Hafsatu23; the other users use similar netwoks (1-2 of the 4 IP numbers different), but there's no direct relation.

CU request based on w:special:permalink/1234854090

I would like to inform that recent enwiki SPI results (w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/HinduKshatrana) suggests that there are more accounts related to आभीरवाटक (3rd user, also known as Rao Devilal Pratap (RDP), w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Rao Devilal Pratap, already blocked by user:Bsadowski1). The 2nd user has activity overlaps at Majhraut (Ahir) with the RDP accounts.

Tyla accounts

As seen in the page history, Tyla has been often targeted by block evasion VPNs, etc. for massive text addition.

They have similar user pages linking to the same company (User:Crovibay, User:Vishgor, special:permalink/9632494). MathXplore (talk) 12:46, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ahir and Rajput accounts

As can be seen in the page histories, these articles have a long history of content addition and reverts. Recent editors include locked accounts, enwiki CU-confirmed accounts, enwiki range-blocked IPs, etc. Now we have another user (the 1st account) involved in drastic content addition and reverts as well as the previous history. Can they be related to the previous editors? MathXplore (talk) 14:02, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rajanas and R2dra have overlapping IPs, buth both are blocked on Simple English Wiki already, so there's little to do there. Sarcastic kshatriya and आभीरवाटक are unrelated to the two, and to each other. Eptalon (talk) 19:56, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Administrator note: The 1st user is blocked/locked for non-CU reasons. MathXplore (talk) 08:45, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As concerned in w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nauman335, there are too many accounts in this subject (including the enwiki draft version). Please also note that one IP user has a checkuserblock-wide in enwiki, the 3rd user is blocked per the enwiki SPI and the 2nd account is also mentioned in the same SPI. Is this what we call teamwork ? MathXplore (talk) 11:18, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to note that the 1st user has made Zard Patton Ka Bunn, and w:Zard Patton Ka Bunn is deleted as CSD G5 per w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nauman335, the same SPI as well as above. Please also note that the same IP range is also involved in this article. However, since the 1st user is currently not registered for enwiki, I cannot use the SPI report. Local check in this project is needed. MathXplore (talk) 12:24, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have more updates about the 1st user. They made Jaan Nisar (2024) (special:redirect/logid/2761385), entry with unusual and unneeded disambiguation as well as w:Jaan Nisar (2024). After I moved the page to clear the disambiguation (Jaan Nisar), I noticed that the 1st user and 3rd user has a made a copy of w:Draft:Jaan Nisar. When checking the deleted revisoins of Jaan Nisar, I also found that the same IP range is also involved here. Please also note that the author of w:Draft:Jaan Nisar is already blocked at enwiki due to the same SPI classification (w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nauman335). MathXplore (talk) 03:04, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To pile on to this, Zard Patton Ka Bunn was originally created on enwiki by a Nauman335 sock - [2]. Barzakh was copied from w:Draft:Barzakh_(TV_series) which was created by an IP in a range where Nauman has been known to be active, see [3] which was created by a Nauman sock then finished by an IP in this range, which is somewhat common from Naumann as socks get blocked. Is MakeInLine the newest Nauman sock here? I've got no doubt based on behavior. Ravensfire (talk) 13:35, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I also noticed that special:permalink/9637379 is same to w:Khaie (CSD G5 case per same SPI). MathXplore (talk) 09:30, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(Update) Khaie is made by the 1st user. MathXplore (talk) 10:38, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See w:Special:Contributions/223.123.0.0/19, looking at the activity of that range that hits Pakistani film/television, you nearly always find a Nauman sock in recent past and their recent edits are to link to the articles created here by socks. There's also some good edits in there as well though, sigh. And here, it's only the past few days that I can truly say is Nauman. Ravensfire (talk) 16:30, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vanderpumpstan (June 2024)

Cedricmartinez is a new account that's created several articles that are massively oversourced, all about people that are connected to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Many of the sources used are from Bravo TV, which is common for Vanderpumpstan articles, as is the extreme details and sources. Compare the article style to other articles in the last version from a previous Vanderpumpstan sock - [4], [5], [6]. New editors don't create massive articles like that, with the massive number of sources, for people that generally have marginal roles in the various shows. The user name, Cedricmartinez, is also the name of someone connected to The Real Housewives of BH, which Vanderpumpstan has done before (see 0ddotnek, which is Ken Todd backwards, husband to Lisa Vanderpump). From prior checks, CU may be a bit marginal but I feel the behavior is more than enough to block as a sock. I've added four of the most recent socks to the CU list for comparison.

Dhadhor accounts

As concerned in Special:Diff/9575212, we have too many accounts involved in over-reverting at this article, and some accounts have very low edit counts. Can the appearance of so many new accounts concentrate in one article in a short term less than 3 months? SeatedSnow (SS) is the latest account among this request, and their edit summary of special:diff/9580657 is a copy of our admins (special:diff/9570001). This coincidence suggests that SS already knows the status of the article in this project. Please investigate the relations between these accounts. MathXplore (talk) 04:04, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a great number of IP addresses, Eceerp seems to be the main user (with most different IPs, and most edits). As far as I can see, there is one case where Srehcraeht and Eceerp share an IP address. Between the other users, there are no shared IPs as far as I can see. Srehcraeht is globally locked, so there's little to do here. This also means that from CU, I see no relationship of Dublevex, Yarverdna to the other two, or to each other. All use the same ISP, but that's not ground enough for blocking... Eptalon (talk) 08:39, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

CU wise, I get three IP addresses, for the two users (in a city of about 10 million people, in Asia). The IPs do ont overlap. It is possible that we are looking at the same user, who connects from a dektop computer, and perhaps using a monbile phone.

Hello all, let me clarify two things: 'That fungi' last edited almost a year ago, so, likely, there is no CU data. So even with the best of intentions, I couldn't run a checkuser, and get useful information to compare with. Secondly, a few months back, PorsdamLamb appealed to his block. In the course of that appeal, the admins thoroughly evaluated the options. In the end, it was decided to re-admit PotsdamLamb to the project. At that time, there were no hints as to PotsdamLamb using other accounts to access this wiki.His history at EnWP was known, and taken into account. Eptalon (talk) 11:38, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator observation) CU action is an account vs. account comparison. IPs cannot be handled. MathXplore (talk) 03:15, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, whatever this is, I've blocked them as it's becoming disruptive. Perhaps a CU can take a second look at these accounts and find something else. — *Fehufangą✉ Talk page 03:22, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, as per CU policy, I can't say much about the IP... For the others,there share at least one IP address, so likely tey are the same user. Accordingly, they have been blocked. Eptalon (talk) 12:14, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gk0094 & Sharma2sonu

While patrolling the logs of global abuse filter 169, I bumped into aforementioned accounts. Both of these accounts published similar promotion for the same company in the sandbox, see here and here. In addition, one of the xis edits of the account is to create a user page with roughly the same format as the user page of the first one. Finally, the first account is already cu-blocked. Please accept my apologies if I made any formatting mistakes... --Daniuu (talk) 13:22, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gonzalo Lira RFD Voters

There appears to be a dispute among these accounts, and new traffic on Simple Wiki is focused on reporting a controversial subject, hinting at potential sockpuppetry / meat puppetry in the RFD. The involvement of newly created accounts with minimal edits and comments, particularly concentrated on the Gonzalo Lira RfD, suggests the need for investigation— Preceding unsigned comment added by SaneFlint (talkcontribs)

(Non-administrator observation) Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Gonzalo Lira is the concerned RFD. MathXplore (talk) 12:09, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator observation) I'm not sure if all of the accounts above belong to the same person, but I would also like to note that 57ntaledane9 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log)) is also a recently created account around this RFD. MathXplore (talk) 12:14, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My observation as a checkuser: There's no IP overlap in the named users, they all use different IPs. So, these are all real people expressing their opinions, in one way or another. As per policy, I can't say much about the IP. Sorry, we don't block people for expressing their opinion. And don't forget: An RfD is not a vote, the more people write in their rationale why and article should (not) be deleted, the easier it will be for the closing admin. Eptalon (talk) 20:52, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I understand it's not a vote, unusual traffic focusing on one particular subject gave me some alarming vibes thats why i thought it might be sockpuppetry or Meatpuppetry. However, our admins will handle it for good. Thank you for the clarification. 😇 SaneFlint (talk) 21:00, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Zerry DL RFD Voters

These three accounts are currently active in the RFD. Wikicontributerr, RL Stunna, and 900R have absolutely 0 undeleted contributions outside the RFD. All three accounts have participated in similar RFDs, particularly regarding Zerry DL. Another commonality is their editing and creation of articles related to Nigeria, often being un-notable or promotional (900R's logs). I suspect these accounts are related. I also have 1-2 more accounts that I think are related, which may be identified after the check, but I'll RFCU for these right now. – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 20:31, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikicontributerr is unrelated (totally different country, different browser). The two others share at least one IP address, and have been blocked. Eptalon (talk) 21:02, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator observation) We have many RFCUs that comes from RFDs, section headings like "RFD Voters" are too vague. Please consider titles with that are more specific. MathXplore (talk) 05:30, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Recent editors at Arlyson Gomes Santos

Article was made by Max6798, who is now globally blocked. Benjamin came in a few days later. Zz247 recently signed up to the Simple Wiki, but Zz247 has extensive recent history in sockpuppeting. Benjamin and Zz247 have very similar user pages, both have history on pt.wikipedia.org, and both voted Keep for Arlyson Gomes Santos. dotdotcomma (talk) 04:29, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
