Kiaator is run-of-the-mill Krajoyn, whereas Ineedisin is a bit trickier. The account focuses on Spain-related topics, and the very first edit is a typical casualty figure. What really makes me think this is Krajoyn, however, is the adamant refusal to participate in talk page discussion, is spite of several reminders, and edit summaries that are either absent or restricted to Wikipedia shortcuts. Right now, he's edit-warring on several articles simultaneously, and a report has been made to WP:ANEW. CU requested for sleepers and colocation webhosts.

Sorry CUs, but he chose to make a point. The recent edit to Roman Empire shows his current hobby: unattributed copying between Wikipedia articles. Guess he pulled a new colocation web host from his stash which needs plugging. Favonian (talk) 20:00, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Standard fare. The IP (no need to frown with privacy concerns – Special:DeletedContributions/81.90.188.201 is as good as a signature) is a bit unusual. I would expect one of the habitual colocation web hosts, but this resource says no. Am I not looking carefully enough? At any rate, CU requested for sleepers etc. Favonian (talk) 21:54, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Curious case. Starts out targeting articles from the turf of Dopenguins and then switches to classic Krajoyn material with a foray around an Ohio high school. Krajoyn imitating Dopenguins or vice versa; possibly one of the habitual copycats? One feels like a biologist observing primitive organisms mutating in a Petri dish. Anyhow, CU requested for truth, enlightenment, sleepers and colocation web hosts. Favonian (talk) 16:53, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@ST47: Interesting. There are some Krajoyn traits like the casualty-related edits to Battle of Chacabuco and the obsessive edit-warring on British intervention in Spanish American independence. On the other hand, Krajoyn is infamously averse to talk pages while Caminoderoma has put in an appearance there. In view of the CU result, my conclusion must be that Fereson is not a Krajoyn sock, though their edits (and username) do a good job of imitating him. Favonian (talk) 16:43, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for having a look. I'll leave the lot untagged, out of uncertainty as to who the correct master is in this case. ST47 (talk) 03:51, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The pages edited by this trio are in the familiar area of Latin America, especially the Dominican Republic, but Krajoyn has chosen a new approach. Now, large portions of text are being removed as copyvios, which, if correct, is not disruptive per se, but the typical Krajoyn behavior (which got him blocked, then banned in the first place) of refusing to discuss anything on talk pages manifests itself in spite of appeals such as this. Instead, he uses mile-long edit summaries as justification. The IPs are already (range-)blocked as colocation webhosts and thus CU is not asked to make the (obvious) connection, but a request is made to look for other proxies and the odd sleeper account.

  • The following accounts are  Confirmed to each other:
Natemargas was previously blocked (non-CU) as a Krajoyn sock. I have blocked the unblocked accounts without tags.
  • The above group is  Inconclusive with Fereson et.al. from the previous report. Both groups are using a different webhost, but have two (very common) useragents in common between them.  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation.
  • No comment with respect to the IPs.

Edits of the article Rise of Rome (diff) similar to that of Roman Empire (diff), using content from historica.fandom (read what they say in the edit summary). Archasit first edited the article with an IP (196.52.21.251) and then reverts me with the Archasit account (see history). User:Mezzetto who edited Roman Empire was banned as a sock of User:Krajoyn.

The named accounts come complete with a signed confession, but CU requested for sleepers and proxies. Speaking of which, the IP is a proxy and I've re-blocked it as such. I'm not sure it's Krajoyn (though the article is one of his targets) but Berean Hunter has previously observed that "{{CheckUser block}}: + proxy + sole use by sockmaster/LTA", so all kinds of creepy-crawlies may be found there.

Edit warring to reinstate the edits of previous IP socks to the Dominican Republic article. Also shows the characteristic dislike for article talk pages, and their only edits to user talk pages (apart from their own) is this bit of unpleasantness. CU requested for sleepers and proxies.

Confirmed, plus:

I'd just note that some of these have been active at eswiki, where they appear to be known as Aminerie. All done here. -- zzuuzz (talk) 20:15, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's been a long time, but he's been kind enough to leave one his signature edit-summaries. As per usual, CU is requested for sleepers and proxies. Favonian (talk) 12:41, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Back in the old groove, as ill-tempered as ever. CU requested for sleepers and whatever proxy farm he now uses. Favonian (talk) 08:23, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Suppose this qualifies as a second wave. You guessed it: CU requested for sleepers and proxies. Favonian (talk) 19:49, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Responding (unfavorably) to my recent protection of two of his favorite articles, there can be little doubt of this sock's identity but as is customary, I request CU for sleepers and proxies. The account was lying low for a couple of months, so the former seems more that a little likely. Favonian (talk) 13:21, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Repeating himself on two favorite targets, currently semi-protected which must have upset him enough to burn a semi-sleeper account of 2½ months standing. CU requested for the habitual sleepers and proxies. Favonian (talk) 16:25, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just waited for the previous case to be adjudicated before resuming. CU requested for sleepers and whatever colocation webhost or whatever that he's currently using. Favonian (talk) 11:22, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
