Đầu tiên họ dùng Ip 117.6.64.175 đưa ra một ý kiến ủng hộ thành viên đang có ý kiến đối lập với họ nhưng ngay sau đó dùng lại dùng các IP tiếp theo mà trong thảo luận họ đã gần như xác nhận là do một người dùng, vu cáo thành viên đang thảo luận với họ dùng rối (Ip 117.6.64.175) để thảo luận. Trong quá trình đóng góp họ tỏ ra rất am hiểu wiki để "lách luật", họ có thể đã lập nhiều các tài khoản để cùng tham gia 1 chủ đề nhưng sẽ đóng tài khoản này trước khi dùng tài khoản tiếp theo để đóng góp để cho các thành viên khác không thể yêu cầu kiểm tra họ được, điều này gây ức chế cho các thành viên có ý kiến đối lập với họ. Chỉ duy nhất lần này, có thể do sơ suất nên họ mới để lộ chứng cứ để có yêu cầu check user.

Summary of the above request: Several IPs participating in the same topic in the Administrator's Noticeboard. The requesting user fear that the IPs are veteran users (since they seem to be very knowledgeable about Wikipedia's rules) who created many sockpuppet accounts to accuse other users of using sockpuppets. Their modus operandi seem to be accusing people of using sockpuppets, but then keep switching accounts so that people can't respond to them. DHN 07:47, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

Trans-Continental@uk.wikipedia [edit]

Status:    In progress.
List of Users
Trans-Continental (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · cA · SULinfo · Luxo's · checkuser)
Lunic 14 (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · cA · SULinfo · Luxo's · checkuser)
  • CU log
  • Reason(s): Possible block evasion for mass voting. According to local policy any user with 50 main namespace edits can vote for or against deletion. Users Trans-Continental and Lunic 14 have made about 50 very minor edits and immediately started to participate in votings. Examples of edits: Trans-Continental - 54 article edits, mostly minor grammar fixes 1 2 3 4, 5, Lunic 14 - 54 article edits, mostly minor spelling and punctuation fixes 1 2 3 4, strange couple of edits 5 6. Both of these users voted in the same nomination: Lunic 14, Trans-Continental, both of them made strange deletion requests: Trans-Continental nominated article with correct reference to encyclopaedia "because I can't find it in Google", Lunic 14 voted three times and once more again with the comment "because it's not mentioned in the rules" or "I support deletion but I am oppose to it" etc. It looks like these two accounts were made specifically for mass voting and trolling, so please check if they belong to the same person and if it is possible to block an IP, as we previously had about 5 users with similar provocative style. Regards — NickK 18:01, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
Do I understand properly that you're going to request checking whenever you see an account with not very large amount of edits noticed in voting? Otherwise I can't find an acceptable explanation for the request. Yes, two accounts. Yes, they both took part in votings, one of them is fairly blocked for disruption. What is Trans-Continental's fault? Corrections of mistakes are not a crime, nor voting is. Trolling is absolutely absent, isn't it? I mean, although the coincidence is possible (theoretically), there's no ground for processing this request, as one of the nominants hasn't violated any established rules. I urge stewards to treat such requests with more accuracy. --700!n 09:00, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
Every time I make a request here appears a user with no or little contributions who says the check shouldn't be done... The situation is as follows: user Trans-Continental was registered on March 8 and was completely inactive, suddenly on May 15 (more precisely, while Lunic 14 was blocked) he makes 50 edits in 42 minutes, 20 minutes later he makes a list of unused templates and 10 minutes later he makes a deletion request. After Lunic 14's block is over, Trans-Continental disappears and Lunic 14 comes back. However, after Lunic 14 was fairly blocked for disruption, Trans-Continental becomes active again. Personally for me it's clear that if Trans-Continental who was inactive for more than two months edits only when Lunic 14 is blocked and has similar style, it's a block evasion — NickK 10:44, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
The fact that Trans-Continental had been registered a month before Lunic 14 did automatically refutes the possibility of his being a sockpuppet. Your reasoning about the consequence of events would make sense if they hadn't happened within one day, and Lunic 14 hadn't been indefblocked in 20 minutes after his response to the first blocking.

In fact, these accounts have virtually nothing is common, one single occurring in a voting is rather casual (given that its summary is clear anyway), making a list of unused templates has nothing to do with sockpuppetry, similarity of the styles is just your opinion, and you know this perfectly. Trans-Continental hasn't infringed any rules, and that's why there is no good reason for the check and no use revealing personal info about his IP. --700!n 11:48, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

  • I guess, it's about time we closed the request, as we seem to have agreed upon its unnecessity. Moreover, Trans-Continental is indefblocked now on account of groundless complaints, thus the check is not needed any longer. --700!n 09:41, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
    Trans-Continental was blocked for trolling, and uk:User:Thetrain appeared. He had exactly 52 article edits, and in a few hours after Trans-Continental was blocked voted against deletion of his page and nominated Category of Indefblocked users for deletion. He also continued very strange comments at the page of deletion requests. Trans-Continental, Lunic 14 and Thetrain have many things in common, they all act in the same way: 1) creation of a userpage, 2) 52 to 54 article edits (our rules require 50 article edits to post comments to deletion requests) (Trans-Continental Lunic_14 Thetrain), 3) some break, usually another account is active at this moment (Trans-Continental did not edit until Lunic_14 was blocked, Thetrain edited only articles until Trans-Continental was blocked), 4) user ceases making article edits and edits only talk pages and deletion requests, the only article edits are rather provocative or edit wars (Trans-Continental Lunic_14 Thetrain), 5) user receives warning for disruption and comments in a rude way (Lunic_14 Thetrain). All these three users look like someone's accounts created solely for gaming the system and participation in votings, their behavior is pretty annoying, so I think that it's necessary to check whether they are sockpuppets of the same user and if their IP can be blocked (particularly, if they use open proxies) — NickK 22:51, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
    Firstly, you're simply lying, as two of them have 65 mainspace edits, and this lie clearly points to your reluctance to give the correct reason for the check. You were explained why the request about L14/T-C was inappropriate, and nonetheless you continue to bring the same arguments here.
    Well, then please answer - where do you see trolling amongst Thetrain's contribs? I don't. The rule about 50 mainspace edits was invented not for harassment of those who votes after making 52/54/60 ones, really? Then his behavior is normal and predictable, moreover, he had written two perfect articles - what else do you expect?
    creation of a userpage - oh, all admins have a userpage, let's check them for using open proxies! (if speak seriously, 75% of newbies on any Wikipedia have a userpage, hard to believe you're unaware of it)
    52 to 54 article edits - this is lie;
    some break, usually another account is active at this moment - my previous reply concerned this, be more attentive;
    user ceases making article edits and edits only talk pages and deletion requests, the only article edits are rather provocative or edit wars - I personally don't observe it, however, everyone is welcome to choose what he wants to edit.

So, your "arguments" have no validity again. --700!n 08:57, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Yes, they try to look like really good users, bt anyway, don't you think that their behavior significantly changes after 52nd or 54th article edit? They begin to participate in all possible discussions and votings instead of what they have previously done (creation of articles, fixing spelling and grammar mistakes). Yes, some of Lunic 14 has made 54 edits in 2 days, and it took him 19 days to make the next 11 edits, Trans-Continental has made 53 edits in 49 minutes, and it took him 19 days to make the next 12 edits. And these edits are very different, if the first 53 or 54 edits were useful minor edits, the following ones were different, e.g. Trans-Continental was blocked in dewiki for removal of names in foreign languages in the article about city, where he was reverted by Pavlo_Chemist, so he added names in foreign languages to the article about chemical compound. Among Lunic_14's 11 edits there is the following one. An example of Thetrain's trolling is given above, is it normal to change one's mind from oppose vote with argument "fdsfgs" to support vote with argument "fdsfgs"? Anyway, these users make about 50 really useful edits and immediately begin trolling in Project namespace and/or provocative edits, so that's very unlikely that these are three different users who immediately after 52nd or 54th edit suddenly decide to comment in all possible discussions. The same matter with User:700!n, who suddenly appeared here with good knowledge of the policies of Ukrainian Wikipedia but without any edits in any project — NickK 09:44, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

  2. Biŋhai also participated in featured article reviews, and he/she accidentally edited Amaqqut's user page[1], so I suspect that these users are Biŋhai's sockpuppet.

  • User:Vunz Vujmingz looks Unrelated unrelated.
  • It is Inconclusive inconclusive from a CheckUser point of view to determine that the accounts User:Brezza del mare, User:Byadengz, User:Quite Storm, User:Amaqqut and User:Biŋhai are operated by the same user. You/Your community will have to decide that based on other things (like editing patterns, etc - please note that CheckUser is not the unique tool to find out sockpuppets).

I am afraid due to various reasons such as irregular editing, small numbered community, little knowledge in policies, lack of coordination among editors prevented in discussion what should done regarding the paid editing episode. Meanwhile this new user is editing nothing but the articles that earlier user've uploaded. This is very disheartening for volunteer editors. An editor has reckon him as a sockpuppet. I also left him a message and they are not responding or evading clearing their name. If you can do the checking for us, we, Sinhala wikipedia community can decide on what to do with him.

Futhermore, it is doubtful that their editing patterns are analogous.

To be specific, they persist their verbose and unnecessary statement.

Also, if one user disappear, other users emerged differnt time, not simultaneously. Therefore, it is questionable that one person throw away the account and use another account. Whatsmore, their discussion attitude is so similar.

    There are rules. According to Blocking policy, a block is limited to the user, not to one of his accounts. There is also ArbCom desicion, according to it Prima_klasy4na (aka Ink) is allowed neither to edit Template namespace nor to create sockpuppets, but he has created sockpuppets listed above to edit Template namespace. Most of these sockpuppets clearly passed duck test, thus they were blocked without CU request — NickK 13:49, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Moulton (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · cA · SULinfo · Luxo's · checkuser)
  • CU log
  • Reason(s): It seems fairly obvious from the contributions of Beetlebaum that they aren't new to Wikiversity even though the account was only registered on 11 July 2010. I suspect that this is a sock puppet of the indefinitely blocked and globally locked Moulton but it doesn't quite pass the duck test in my view. The edits they have made are to start writing a song about prior incidents on Wikiversity. They have also listed Moulton as a participant. I understand that Moulton has recently logged into Wikiversity, or at least tried to, so there may be some information of use there available. However, Moulton is known to evade the block by use of a variety of IP addresses. These are usually 68.160.XXX.XXX, 68.162.XXX.XXX, or similar addresses registered to Verizon so it should hopefully be possible for CheckUser to assist here in confirming whether this is likely to be a Moulton sockpuppet. There are no local checkusers. Adambro 18:16, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

  • Discussion: lv:Vikipēdija:Kopienas portāls#Lietotājs:Mansalus
  • Reason(s): Krishjaanis has been somewhat troublesome user in the past, Mansalus joined the project on 31 May, made few good edits, about week ago he voted in a poll exactly as Krishjaanis (them being the only oposition in that poll and both stating no reason), today I noticed him voting against a good article candidate a minute after Krishjaanis. Given previous problems with this user I suspect Mansalus is a sockpuppet and would like it to be chacked, also if possible please check if he has ever used any other accounts in addition to these. Note that I mentioned this issue in community portal, but the result is inconclusive ~~Xil...(talk) 22:42, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
Unlikely Unlikely. Krishjaanis and Mansalus from different ISPs and use many different user-agents --Shizhao 09:38, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
In that case would it be possible to check if someone else is harassing Krishjaanis or (though I find it unlikely) that Mansalus is also using open proxy to hide who he is if checked or using mobile phone which would have diffrent ISP (in that case ISP would be LMT, Tele2 or Bite) ? The thing is I think somebody is trolling and this has been going on for quite some time, but I can't quite put my finger on it ~~Xil...(talk) 10:40, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
No, ISP not LMT, Tele2 or Bite. Krishjaanis and Mansalus use several diffrent computer access internet( at diffrent ISP), maybe at Home, at Work, at Cafe etc. Plese other stewards review--Shizhao 11:20, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
Note Note: Krishjaanis and Mansalus same point: 1) a number of different ISP; 2)Often use different computers (user-agents). Difference: ISP and user-agents are not nearly the same --Shizhao 11:40, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
The thing is that someone well versed in Wikipedia is occasionaly is making open proxy attacks on us, since first time was two years ago after Krishjaanis was blocked for the first time, so I suspected him. Few months ago this happened again and I blocked Krishjaanis believing that there is enough evidence that it is him. He contested the block using several IP addreses, when asked he admited two of the anonymous users were him and explained that he was editing from home and work. One of those was a proxy at which he blamed sysadmins at his workplace, implying that it is some safety feature rerouting everything through proxies. Also someone created lv:Lietotājs:Revolucija! this January with sole purpose to flame at community portal, perhaps the same guy. There is though some evidence that someone else may be using open proxies e.g. here someone using a proxy is teasing Krishjaanis ~~Xil...(talk) 12:20, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
Nevermind another user confesed that he created this account for his friend ~~Xil...(talk) 13:21, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Also, if one user disappear, other users emerged differnt time, not simultaneously. Therefore, it is questionable that one person throw away the account and use another account. Whatsmore, their discussion attitude is so similar.

  • CU log
  • Reason(s): HISTORIAENCICLOPEDIA has been banned from the project for disruptive editing (flooding the project with nonsense pages), persistent block evasions and vandalism. After his ban he started vandalizing the project via multiple accounts/IPs so we implemented a couple of rangeblocks, which are still active, to try to stop him. Today HISTORIAGEOGRAFIA apeared making more or less the same edits at that HISTORIAENCICLOPEDIA did in the past. I know that it seems ducky, but appart for confirming if those users are related I would like to know if I need to reset any rangeblock or has sleepers; as he's vandalized from multiple IDs the project and has circunvented the rangeblock. If you find it appropiate, please send me the new range(s) by email. Thank you, --dferg ☎ talk 11:30, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Rock drum@en.wikiversity [edit]

Please check Rock drum and Moulton. A Wikiversity Sysop accused me of being a sockpuppet. A link to the discussion can be found here. The user in question, Ottave Rima, seems determined to call me a sockpuppet. Thanks, Rock drum (talk·contribs) 16:30, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

  • I believe that Ottava is also suggesting that "Rock drum" is a puppet of User:JWSchmidt (JWS). Please include User:JWSchmidt in this check. --JWSurf 16:34, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
