<translate> This page is for requesting CheckUser information on a wiki with no local CheckUsers (see also [[<tvar name="SRP">Steward requests/Permissions</tvar>|requesting checkuser access]]). Make sure to follow the following instructions, or your request may not be processed in a timely manner.</translate>

<translate> Before making a request:</translate>

<translate> Make sure you have a good reason for the check. It will only be accepted to counter vandalism or disruption to Wikimedia wikis. Valid reasons include needing a block of the underlying IP or IP range, disruptive sockpuppetry, vote-stacking, and similar disruption where the technical evidence from running a check would prevent or reduce further disruption.</translate>
<translate> Be specific in your reasons. Ambiguous or insufficient reasons will cause delays. Explain the disruption and why you believe the accounts are related, ideally using [[<tvar name="diff">mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Diff</tvar>|diff links]] or other evidence.</translate>
<translate> Make sure there are no local checkusers.</translate>

@6AND5: that still doesn't indicate the purpose of knowing that they are related parties. An interest in a relationship alone is not a reason for checkuser. There would be need for a proof of wrongdoing, circumventing votes, circumventing blocks, etc. — billinghurst sDrewth 07:03, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The question is that the participant (Lakiditto098 (same 1221nor, Lilit1345, Karenpetrosyan)The following accounts are

Confirmed) is blocked (unlimited), and now his brother allegedly began to write articles. --6AND5 (talk) 14:11, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If it is his brother that may or may not mean the same IP address. It may or may not mean the same user agents, etc. There is nothing that we can do that is going to differentiate that sort of relationship and you will need to work it out for yourself. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:24, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Syed Shahzad Ali Najmi

With reference to previous investigation Dr. Syed Shahzad Ali Najmi/Archive can the following two can be identified as the Sockpuppet.

Reason: Keeps on adding and supporting about Shahzad Ali Najmi and his book, used for commercial advertising.

Najmi Healing Energy - Discussion Page

Syed Shahzad Ali Najmi - Discussion page

As the previous Sockpuppets which were Blocked in English Wikipedia and later on Urdu Wikipedia, these two users are acting as the same.

CU log
Discussion: w:el:Βικιπαίδεια:Μαριονέτα

Reason(s): There seems to be a close relation between, at least, the accounts of Gtrbolivar, Bakalisb and Skettos7, as they have the same type of contributions, with their interest being centered in articles like Πανελλήνιος Γ.Σ., Αθλητική Ένωση Κωνσταντινουπόλεως, Ολυμπιακός Σύνδεσμος Φιλάθλων Πειραιώς or Παναθηναϊκός Αθλητικός Όμιλος. But where the problem is, it's at the fact that those three accounts have the same type of argumentation and the same kind of acting, which means reverting (blindly in my opinion) every contribution which is not ok with their personnal beliefs and can have the same rather aggressive talk when someone tells them publically that he disagrees with them. Also, what is making me think that we have here a sock-puppeting case is the fact that all those accounts don't appear all at once but for separate periods ex. for two months (I might be wrong about the length of that time period...) you have only Bakalisb contributing, and then he disappears and you have, for example, Gtrbolivar appearing from nowhere when he was inactive for around two-three months (again I might be wrong about the time length)... Well, let's say that all of this makes the whole situation rather suspicious. And as for Picker78, I think he's the puppet creator as in the past he was, already, suspected for creating puppets and he had the same type of contributions and argumentation with the mentioned before users... Thanks in advance...

PS. Sorry for any english mistakes... Glorious 93 (talk) 23:09, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just found a previous personal checkuser demand which proved the fact that Picker78 is a recognized and publicly admitted puppet-maker... Thanks again...--Glorious 93 (talk) 23:49, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion, Bakalisb is a serious contributor and he/she is not involved in this on going sock-puppeting case. On the other hand, Gavros (active from April to July 2014) seems to had shared identical interests, argumentation and bad temper with Skettos7 (account creation in December 2014). --Στέλιος Πετρουλάκης (talk) 00:40, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Has this matter been discussed at elWP? The request should be discussed at that wiki prior to progressing here. — billinghurst sDrewth 08:51, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Every time we (as users) want to discuss such matters (sock puppetry cases) with admins at el@wiki, they tell us first to ask for a checkuser so we can prove that our suspicions are right and, then, start a discussion about taking measures against those users if the checkuser is positive. So, I don't think that sending back the problem to el@wiki (and then being told, again, to send it to meta) would help in this case and in sock puppetry cases in general. Some of these two bodies (el@wiki admins and meta stewards) has to take a decision and sending (indirectly of course) the problem to each other won't help in that direction. Just an example to prove you what I'm saying here, in a quite similar case, with an obvious puppet, an admin responded me by saying "Κανείς διαχειριστής ή γραφειοκράτης δεν έχει δυνατότητα διαπίστωσης μαριονέτας (ή μη) στην ελληνόφωνη ΒΠ. Αν έχεις σχετικές υπόνοιες μπορείς να ζητήσεις Checkuser στο meta."-"No admin or bureaucrat is able to prove if a user is a puppet or not on el@wiki. If you have any suspicions you can ask for a Checkuser on meta." And there are numerous cases like this with this same (or nearly) answer from admins. Letting down the matter wouldn't help at all.--Glorious 93 (talk) 12:38, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Having multiple accounts is not contrary to WMF policy, so that itself is not a consideration for stewards. For a local policy for stewards to run a checkuser the checkuser policy directs us that a conversation should take place on the local wiki, so where a general user has a case it should be supported on the local wiki by those who are charged with enforcing the policy. In this case I believe that we need a local discussion at elWP. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:53, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Closed stale discussion, no comment for a week. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:09, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion: m:Special:Diff/11358928#Checkusers and oversighters on nowiki

Reason(s): Extensive sockpuppetry, main account indefinitely blocked on both nowp and enwp (no:Bruker:Sju hav/w:User:Sju hav) in 2008. Has been very active lately, and all accounts listed above exept for the first have been blocked based on behaviour and topics of interest (Ogaysiis was also blocked on enwp after a local CU). Idoll-olga was created today, and although the contributions so far have been "innocent", the behaviour is quite recognisable: Starting by asking questions on talk pages, adding text (often trivial) citing newspaper articles, some "finger prints" in the edit pattern that I would prefer not to disclose openly. 4ing (talk) 21:20, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

All those accounts are confirmed sockpuppets from one of two IPs (one mobile the other fixed). Scargsmint, Elis20005 and Video Frankenstein are three socks not included in that list, though the last is already blocked. I'm not sure if they are good candidates for a global lock given that some accounts appear to be editing productively; if another stewards wants to look into it further they are free too. I need to go and write a test now. Ajraddatz (talk) 18:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I have blocked two of the accounts not already blocked. - 4ing (talk) 09:42, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
