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.
  4. Please ensure that the check hasn't already been done:


How to make a request

How to make a request:

  • Place your request at the bottom of the section, using the template below (see also {{srcu}} help).
    === Username@xx.project ===
    {{CU request
     |status          = <!--don't change this line-->
     |language code   = 
     |project shortcut= 
     |user name1      = 
     |user name2      = 
     |user name3      = 
    <!-- Max 10 users -->
     |discussion      = [[Example]]<!-- local confirmation link / local policy link -->
     |reason          = Reasons here. ~~~~
    }}
    

    For example:

    === Example@en.wikipedia ===
    {{CU request
     |status          = <!--don't change this line-->
     |language code   = en
     |project shortcut= w
     |user name1      = Example
     |user name2      = Foo
     |user name3      = Bar
    <!-- Max 10 users -->
     |discussion      = [[:w:en:Example]]<!-- local confirmation link / local policy link -->
     |reason          = Reasons here. ~~~~
    }}
    
  • Specify the wiki(s) you want to perform the check on.

Crosswiki spambots, single use accounts

Status:    Done

The following are accounts that have all spammed wikis with the same url, and created a user page. Would think that there is a good chance of a common element to them, and if so there will be others. All seem to be single-use disposable spambot accounts, with this repeating style of username.  — billinghurst sDrewth 04:47, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am taking a look. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 16:54, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Completed Completed. @Billinghurst and Wutsje: Looks like you've hit quite the jackpot.
The following accounts are  Confirmed technically and behaviourally. Listing bellow from newest account to oldest and in parentheses the list of spammed domains per account:
The above accounts will be globally locked, but we'll need to cleanup the spam not yet removed.
Merry Christmas. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 17:30, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@MarcoAurelio: Done, also with thanks to Billinghurst. Wutsje (talk) 19:06, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
