Suspected sockpuppets

[edit]


After 153.214.208.62 claimed that this user is the sockpuppet of a globally locked user, i have decided to check this user's talk page on jawiki. Then I checked the Sidow's edits and here is the evidence I can find:

  • Both Sidow and 台風14号 ignored warnings numerous times on enwiki, though 台風14号 at least finally responded after I sent a final warning to their talk page.
  • Rejects any edits that are against what they want (which led me into warning them against article ownership back two weeks ago). [1] [2]

Since Sidowpknbkhihj and 台風14号 did not have the same interests I'm requesting a CheckUser investigation. SMB99thx my edits 04:41, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since 153.214.208.62 claimed that 台風14号 is the Sidowpknbkhihj led me to opening this sockpuppet investigation casepage, i have notified the IP to this casepage. SMB99thx my edits 04:55, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I always requested CheckUser in every SPI I was involved in, but i want to take a step back this time around. SMB99thx my edits 07:27, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I was using sock puppets. sorry. But now, I deeply regret deeply and vow not to use the sock puppets any more. This "台風14号" account is my main account. Therefore, I pledge that I will never use any account other than this account in the future.--台風14号 (talk) 07:48, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Looking from CU evidence, Typhoon Meranti is blocked as a block evasion of ソングダー, which is a globally locked sock of Sidowpknbkhihj. Using diffs itself, Typhoon Meranti is a  Looks like a duck to me with these edits:

Since Typhoon Meranti was a subject of global lock request, i think there is no need for action against the sock. However, it is connected with other socks 迂回マン and 458 Pilgrim, which means actions against the sock is necessary. 迂回マン edited the talk page of the user NORECH which was a target of earlier Sidowpknbkhihj socks: new sock (notifying NORECH about creation of the article Pilgrim Airlines Flight 458 which was created by Typhoon Meranti), previous sock 1, previous sock 2. Typhoon Meranti's creation Pilgrim Airlines Flight 458 are direct copies of the 458 Pilgrim's sandbox and draft (and blanked by Typhoon Meranti, despite it was not submitted yet), which suggest connection between the two.

Requesting CU for technical evidence. SMB99thx my edits 10:03, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I translate/copied/split from (oldid=) edit summaries (Vandjn, Typhoon Meranti, 台風14号) -  Sounds like a duck quacking into a megaphone to me. Requesting CU for technical evidence and sleepers. SMB99thx my edits 05:06, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Update: Globally locked alongside new sock ラスじゃ on the same day. I'm still requesting CU if more sleepers show up. SMB99thx my edits 12:03, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Posiko  Looks like a duck to me because of the obvious edit summaries (use of 'oldid='): new sock (previous sock). Nillew came from ja:Wikipedia‐ノート:投稿ブロック依頼/Sidowpknbkhihj. Remaining three other possible socks are found from ja:Wikipedia:管理者伝言板/投稿ブロック/ソックパペット#ヒースロー系. Requesting CU if they are linked and if there is more sleepers. SMB99thx my edits 10:06, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that account マリスリス (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log· investigate · cuwiki) doesn't exist on en.wiki, as such i removed the account from the list to prevent messing up the CU request. However, in any event that account is registered on enwiki I will add them to the list again, as that account exists on ja:Wikipedia:管理者伝言板/投稿ブロック/ソックパペット#ヒースロー系. SMB99thx my edits 12:27, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note: There is one more account, Deremiann (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log· investigate · cuwiki) which was identified as a 'reference' sock in ja:Wikipedia‐ノート:投稿ブロック依頼/スカイ13 (スカイ13 is an old sock of Sidowpknbkhihj). This suspected sock just recently got added on ja:Wikipedia:管理者伝言板/投稿ブロック/ソックパペット#ヒースロー系, and I already put this possible sock on the global request in suspicion of being the same person as the Sidowpknbkhihj - and i found out about this possible sock just recently. However i'm not sure if that account is a sock or not, and this account has not been active since 29 August 2019, so I will not add this to the list. SMB99thx my edits 02:12, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Update: Most of the socks mentioned here are now globally locked, with the exception of Denbau and マリスリス (not on enwiki). Not dropping my CU request for possible link with Denbau and sleepers. Also adding a sock, found on the ja:Wikipedia:管理者伝言板/投稿ブロック/ソックパペット#ヒースロー系. SMB99thx my edits 04:02, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All of these socks are now globally locked. There's nothing to do here. Can SPI clerks close this? I also filed a global ban request for comment on Meta, as Destroyeraa suggested below. SMB99thx my edits 07:31, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting CU. By the way, this account was created around the time when older socks of Sidowpknbkhihj got blocked, not after Typhoon No.14 got blocked. SMB99thx my edits 23:44, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely a sockpuppet. See this: [3] and [4]. Sidowpknbkhihj should be locked on all meta accounts and be banned from creating new accounts, along with his IP address and all his socks should be locked and prevented from account creation!~ Destroyeraa🌀 00:01, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Destroyeraa, which means it's a global ban. I'm thinking about starting an RfC on it. SMB99thx my edits 02:11, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is the newly reported account on ja:Wikipedia:進行中の荒らし行為/長期/ヒースロー.There are many similarities, such as creating articles related to earthquakes. In addition, when an edit by another sock puppet is returned, the edit is canceled by these account[5][6]. These account also creates articles that originate only from Kotobank, which is one of Sidowpknbkhihj's characteristics. For these reasons, we request a sock puppet survey by CU.2400:2410:C1C0:9800:C105:7DD5:96D9:7257 (talk) 07:22, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like Compasu (talk · contribs) is one of the socks of Sidowpknbkhihj (talk · contribs), also known as the vandal ja:LTA:HEATHROW in the Japanese Wikipedia. Mafing (talk · contribs) was active in the English Wikipedia from 30 September to 22 October 2022, and is now globally-locked as Sidowpknbkhihj's sock. Compasu and Mafing have often edited storm/typhoon-related pages, making the redirects and/or moving the articles; compare Compasu's edit on 31 October 2022 and Mafing's edit on 10 October 2022. Requesting checkuser because I am afraid that there are other sleepers.

For what it's worth, below, I would like to add some of the IP ranges that seem to be used by Sidowpknbkhihj in the English Wikipedia. A bunch of IP ranges got blocked, most of them for 1 year, as Sidowpknbkhihj's IP socks in the Japanese Wikipedia. Sidowpknbkhihj's IP ranges are listed at ja:LTA:HEATHROW/USER.

I think Sidowpknbkhihj's IP ranges need to be blocked in the English Wikipedia, as in the Japanese Wikipedia. For example, 126.255.227.108 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) restored 台風20177 (talk · contribs)'s edit at Typhoon Vicki; compare 台風20177's edit in 2020 and 126.255.227.108's edit in 2022. Furthermore, Compasu appeared 6 minutes after 126.255.227.108's edit at the same article. 2400:4050:C222:B700:AD5C:4636:C9F5:5E7D (talk) 23:38, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbb23 and @Salvio giuliano, 伊勢湾台風 created a pile of mess by randomly moving articles to other places. A lot of sweeping needed to be done after checking and block. Lemonaka (talk) 02:26, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Like the recent socks Compasu (talk · contribs), Mafing (talk · contribs), and 伊勢湾台風 (talk · contribs), Negmegirin and the 126 IPs appeared on typhoon-related articles, creating/moving multiple pages and opening multiple move requests. For example, they created a draft page as an IP user and moved it to the main space as an account user; compare Special:Log/伊勢湾台風 and Special:Log/Negmegirin. See also Compasu's move request and 126.253.172.31's move request. For what it's worth, the vandal ja:LTA:HEATHROW's IP ranges are listed at ja:LTA:HEATHROW/USER. 2400:4050:C222:B700:39B8:B6D3:577F:6887 (talk) 06:49, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty blatant sockpuppetry via IP hopping. The editor is restoring edits by their blocked accounts which were previously reverted. Yue🌙 07:27, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This IP has just opened up a requested move discussion. This on its own is not suspicious, however, it reminds me a lot of the logic of the moves preformed by Special:Contributions/Compasu. There have been other IPs during the meantime proposing Requested moves as well, see [8][9][10] for a few examples. 12.207.51.104 (talk) 16:29, 29 December 2022 (UTC) 12.207.51.104 (talk) 16:29, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • The IP has not edited recently, closing. This user has access to several wide ranges and individual IP blocks are not going to accomplish much. Requesting semi-protection on frequently targeted pages would be a better approach. Spicy (talk) 15:14, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
