<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>

  1. <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>
  2. <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>
  3. <translate> Make sure there are no local checkusers.</translate>
  4. <translate> Please ensure that the check hasn't already been done:</translate>

It is Likely Likely that Groups 1 and 2 are related, and Unlikely Unlikely that those in Group 3 are related to Groups 1 & 2. -- Avi (talk) 04:30, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

These pattern accounts have all been recently created and I think they might be spambots. Please investigate and, if necessary, lock them. Thanks, Mathonius (talk) 21:31, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Locked. To also note that I did some actions against the account creations in titleblacklist, which can be removed at some point of time. — billinghurst sDrewth 03:16, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
