This page is for requesting CheckUser information on a wiki with no local CheckUsers (see also requesting checkuser access). Make sure to follow the following instructions, or your request may not be processed in a timely manner.

Before making a request:

  1. 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.
  2. 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 diff links or other evidence.
  3. Make sure there are no local checkusers or policies.
  4. Please ensure that the check hasn't already been done:

Mangaolo (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Crveno belli (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)

Reason(s): Μαυρο Μαργαριταρι exhibits the same editing pattern of blind reverts and silly vandalism as Μαδαρός in the elwiki article on the battle of Crete (el:Μάχη της Κρήτης -- please check the article's history page).

The former is an account that was activated and started editing the article only a short while after the latter was blocked indefinitely as a sockpuppet. There may well be a number of sleepers, as the sockmaster (Vrahomarinaner, whose account has also been indefinitely blocked) tends to edit WP using a large number of accounts (as previously confirmed after CU requests here) or as an IP. Ασμοδαίος (talk) 18:44, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
  • update. In the meantime, users Μαυρο Μαργαριταρι, Tina ftore, Ερωφίλη, Ορενόκος, Mangaolo, and Crveno belli have been blocked indefinitely for abusive use of multiple accounts in the Greek-language WP. ——Chalk19 (talk) 22:38, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Worlock1 (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): Spammers, most of them IPs from several ranges, the whole set is here: Talk:Spam_blacklist#redirects_to_href.li (still growing as I am generating COIBot reports). First set of domains is blacklisted. The spammers typically replace official websites with their domains, which turn out to be redirects through href.li to the original domains but with added codes (e.g. naughtyamerica.top is a redirect to href.li/?hXXp://natour.naughtyamerica.com/track/MTEyNjgzLjEyLjguOC4wLjAuMC4wLjA (mainmed http to hXXp); only brazzers.network seems not to be a redirect). Some of the underlying IP-ranges are VPNs and webhost which need global blocking. Please check if there are more ranges that need blocking. Note, there is no master-sock here, I chose Pertonax as the only named account used for two different domains. --Dirk Beetstra T C (en: U, T) 19:31, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
Please note that except Esperanto9999 all others would be Stale as CU data is only kept for a short period of time. No check user query ran here. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 20:19, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
@MarcoAurelio: I keep finding more IPs, users and domains, but I see that CheckUser is not going to help on those either. I may however need a hand to have any (underlying) ranges globally blocked, they seem to be using open proxies and VPNs. --Dirk Beetstra T C (en: U, T) 15:20, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Hatake@sq.wikipedia[edit]

Status:    In progress
List of users
Hatake (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Zall-herr (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Barnabë Trohasi (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
185.22.172.17 (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)

Reason(s): User:Hatake (master) is a prolific sock creator in the Albanian Wikipedia (SQwiki), who is inofficially backed and encouraged by one administrator there. He refuses to block his new sockpuppets even when there is evident proof that they're sockpuppets. Ever since he was blocked in January he has been creating one sockpuppet after another. These include: User:Llazgo, User:Fapaf, User:Qiqrra etc. As soon as his latest socks User:GjonBdeku and user:Dedalia were discovered and blocked, after a checkuser request here, we suspect that he created a new sockpuppet called user:Zall-herr. This new user seems experienced and in just a few days he has edited a lot of articles Hatake and his socks edited as well. User:Zall-herr is the new sockpuppet created by User:Hatake in SQwiki. He insults and attacks people all the time (example: Misto Treska ). I have behavioral evidence as well, this means that the case is confirmed. As one of the people attacked by him, I confirm Zall-herr is just another sockpuppet of Hatake, created just 1 day after his latest socks user:Dedalia and user:GjonBdeku were discovered and blocked. If the administrator 1l2l3k wanted Hatake's sock Zall-herr to be blocked, he would've been blocked by now. It's two weeks since Zall-herr was confirmed as a sock, yet 1l2l3k didn't lift a finger to block him. 1l2l3k is the same admin who blocked a random anonymous IP with 1 edit for being a "sock of Udha", despite his behavior showing no correlation to user:Udha.1 Also he blocked user:Arkivisti with no reason (Arkivisti was just asking to protect article [1] from vandalism!!!) encouraging Zall-herr and giving him privileges to control most articles in SQwiki. Yet somehow he cannot recognize a sock by Hatake even when he's presented with evidence, even after we successfully discovered 13 Hatake socks on our own since December while informing him (1) first about each new sock?! 1l2l3k even has a personal list of most Hatake socks! Please help us, as we don't know how to stop him.

79.171.53.230 (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): User Cinephile-al, Arkivisti, Snsol, and other IPs all push the same POV at the article Misto Treska in sqwiki. Cinephile-al is the master (edited earlier) and often edits under an IP. Arkivisti (the sock, as it started editing later) was blocked for disruption. When blocked, he returned to his older account, Cinephile-al. In addition all of these folks keep deleting sourced material, threatening all editors involved. Engagement in the talk page is minimal, and while no source is disputed, the same person wants the article deleted. Instead of following the proper deletion procedures the same person is involved merely in deleting article and relative talk page. Article is protected as a result of the insane persistence of this individual. --1l2l3k (talk) 13:23, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
Good to see that after my last comment here you reflected about some of your mistakes and double standards and decided to finally report user:Cinephile-al properly. The report comes a little late as you already blocked some users above under the pretext of being "socks" of Cinephile-al (1, and that with NO confirmation, and on top of that you also asked the community on Albanian Wikipedia to vote on permanently blocking @Cinephile-al:. One of the reasons you gave there is that after being banned he socked with new accounts and IPs, vandalizing and insulting. Again you had no confirmation for your claims, yet you asked the community to block him permanently. This happened after he criticized you here for your abuses. On the other hand you still refuse to block a confirmed sockpuppet of Hatake, which is one of the accusations user:Cinephile-al made against you.--Udha (talk) 14:34, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
Ok, I'm not going to comment here further as this seems to be improper. I'm sorry.--Udha (talk) 15:02, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Delarouvraie@fr.wiktionary[edit]

Status:    Done
List of users
Delarouvraie (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Bianchi-Bihan (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Eszik (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)

Reason(s): Regarding the accounts Delarouvraie & Bianchi-Bihan :
This request concerns mainly behavorial patterns and ways of contributing of these two accounts, that highly disrupted fr.wiktionary the past months.
It has been a while now, that these accounts have been engaged in creating polemics and conflicts, engaging other contributors into them. Those conflicts have, for some of them, made contributors stop participating to the project. Both accounts have exhausted valuable contributors—that have never caused problems in years—:

  • By using the same methods to gain credibility among other contributors, that is they put themselves in the position of a person you want to defend, in order to better achieve their goals.
    Regarding Bianchi-Bihan, they present themself they present themself as a speaker of Breton (br-4) speaking French at a very basic level (fr-1), whereas their French has appeared, at many occasions, to be at a native level ([8], [9], etc.). It is therefore likely that the person using this account tries to create a fake profile to limitate any similarity between the sockpuppets. This account also uses contributors' talk pages to put pressure on the contributors they are in conflict with, to avoid direct dicussion (e.g. [10], [11], the latter having led a contributor stopping contributing because of harassment).
    In the same way, Delarouvraie presents themself as a woman protecting the women's rights, modifying the definitions related to feminin terms, women, etc., which at first seems very respectable. At first only though, since his or her behavior in the community pages has shown at several occasions to be provocative, disrespectful towards other contributors ([12]), taking to task contributors that have never caused any conflict in the project, pointing e.g. their advanced age ([13], [14]). Delarouvraie also avoids frequently discussions, and prefers edit the pages directly, bypassing the other contributors' opinions ([15], [16]).
  • What is most important, both accounts have made other contributors abashed to the point of stopping contributing to the project:
    Bianchi-Bihan made the only two regular contributors in Breton that fr.wiktionary had, give up their participation to the project ([17], [18]) - both contributors have accumulated 14,000+ contributions on fr.wiktionary without causing any issue on the project—Bianchi-Bihan has made around 400+ contributions. Delarouvraie made leave a new contributor ([19]) ; this contributor was brought by a contributor that absolutely never caused any single problem on the project, after 8+ years of contribution. The latter litterally felt ashamed ([20]) to have recommended the project to that new contributor.

This kind of harassing behaviors have not been seen in the project for years, and now they happen in the same period by two accounts that use the same harassing methods.

Moreover, these two accounts started being active on fr.wiktionary at about the same period.

Note that both Delarouvraie and Bianchi-Bihan have been blocked undefinitely on fr.wikipedia for (among other things) abusing of sockpuppets [21], [22].

Regarding Eszik: it has presumably been used to avoid the block of Delarouvraie, who was blocked for abuse of revocations on articles with similar content ([23]).

If it turns out that these accounts are technically related, this would save fr.wiktionary's administrators' time to moderate the discussions and the polemics these accounts launch continually. And this would be an excellent argument to convince users having left to come back and contribute peacefully. — Automatik (talk) 17:17, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Parimori (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
TikTaku (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): User NopiAbat (master) makes Ok edits in articles of Northern Albania settlements such as Shala or Abat. After some disagreements with another user, he started editing the same articles with new nicks while the prior nick would usually validate the edit (note that in sqwiki new users cannot have the edits automatically approved, unless an approved editor does so manually). This continues until an admin manually assigns the rights of "editor" to a new user. I want this user to consolidate his accounts as this may deceive the community, and need proof for this, hence I'm asking a checkuser. Thank you! --1l2l3k (talk) 12:14, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
