Editors removing QD/RFD templates from Pamela N. Furr

I believe these accounts are being used as sockpuppets to remove the quick deletion template from the Pamela N. Furr article. Ternera (talk) 16:35, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Probbable another Sock of User:Lights and freedom

Dear respected editors,

I have observed unusual activity surrounding User following the block of User . Since then, User has focused primarily on RfD and QD nominations across numerous pages. Additionally, I noticed that IP address 131.109.227.10 created a discussion on the Vijay Naidu page, and almost immediately, User joined the discussion. Upon further investigation, I found that this IP address appears to have the same location and behavior as previous accounts, including User:Yelromcc and User:Batrachoseps and freedom, suggesting a possible connection between these accounts and IPs. --Symonds Gerother (talk) 16:08, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm definitely not a sock puppet but go ahead and do a checkuser on me. The CU will definitely clear me of wrong doing and will come as a surprise to the CU. Yelromcc (talk) 16:20, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

no Declined No clear basis for check at this point. This is not the first RFD they have commented on.--BRP ever 16:36, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I'll send you an email to explain. Cheers, Yelromcc (talk) 16:41, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fabio Mancini accounts

The first account created Fabio Mancini, and the second account has edited it and voted keep in the deletion request. The second account was created on 3 November, after the deletion request was started on 2 November. 131.109.227.10 (talk) 17:34, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After a lookup, I see no overlapping IPs. If I look at the cities, they are in the same country, but 1000 km apart. With the little info I have I can therefore not say that they are the same user. Eptalon (talk) 18:29, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We have 2 users here, possible vote-stacking. The 1st user made Mohammad Rafique (musician), w:Draft:Mohammad Rafique (musician), uploaded File:Mohammadrafique.png, and joined the RFD (Special:Diff/9852514). The 2nd user has few edits here and they were only made in Mohammad Rafique (musician) and the RFD (Special:Diff/9858665). MathXplore (talk) 08:01, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the two, I see no IP overlap, the IPs are from different countries. Eptalon (talk) 12:48, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accounts at Jadidi Alireza

First, user Ali76567gf created Jadidi Alireza. Then, user Emojg2000444 appeared and remove the RfD tag from the page, and begged IWI to save the article: Special:Permalink/9870316#Jadidi_Alireza_4. — *Fehufangą✉ Talk page 20:58, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Fwiw I've just been reporting them to Meta:SRG so that they can't edit anywhere else, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 13:08, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Depending on the situation, I like communicating it internally or through IRC so I can provide them the details. This helps reduce some of the work in their part. I will try to point that out in my response to checks going forward. BRP ever 13:17, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah okay I didn't know that, Unless you or anyone else blocks them first then I'll still continue reporting as I would prefer them locked there and then instead of waiting for you to come online, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 14:48, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

More accounts at Attack of Baghdad (1812) with WP:3RR and WP:ONESTRIKE concerns

Similar to Special:Diff/9861830, I have found more accounts repeating many reverts at Attack of Baghdad (1812).

These users are already confirmed at w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mindirman Jaloliddin (w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Hasanreels), and I consider this is an attempt to avoid WP:3RR restrictions by using many accounts. Can this be accepted? MathXplore (talk) 09:11, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. The results are:

  • Group 1: Кампот Бег, Takashto  Confirmed
  • Group 2: Muha656, Nuraddin historys13, Nurhistory13  Confirmed

Hasanreels is technically Red X Unrelated to either group. Group 1 and Group 2 are technically unrelated. @MathXplore: It could be meatpuppetry instead, I leave the clean up to you.--BRP ever 09:52, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

w:WP:SHOUT and suspected abuse of logout edits to avoid WP:3RR restrictions at Attack of Baghdad (1812) and Talk:Attack of Baghdad (1812)

I would like to note that 2 users and Special:Contributions/2A02:3035:B05:1A96:1C8B:4A6:D73F:945A are shouting and possibly switching between logged-in/logged-out to make their statement ("Qajar victory") visible on Attack of Baghdad (1812) and Talk:Attack of Baghdad (1812) (Special:Diff/9860317, special:diff/9858142, special:diff/9858613, special:diff/9858786, special:diff/9859174, special:diff/9861740, special:diff/9853436). MathXplore (talk) 08:22, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I ran a checkuser, here are my findings: Both users are from the same country, and use the same ISP, which has a pool of dynamic IP adresses. Looking at the IPs though, three of the four IPv4 numbers are different, so them being the same user is unlikely. No comment on the IPv6 address. Eptalon (talk) 09:14, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Editing on Cyber Crime Break

I recently placed an A4 Quick Deletion (QD) tag on the article Cyber Crime Break because the page lacked clear indications of notability. However, shortly after, a user named User:Baalveeer removed the QD tag without providing any explanation. I reverted this removal, but then another user, User:Wikimooddose, also removed the QD tag.

Notably, a total of three accounts have edited this page, all contributing in ways that attempt to prevent its deletion. This behavior suggests that these accounts might be sockpuppets, potentially created to keep the article from being flagged for deletion. Could an administrator please investigate this situation to verify if these accounts are indeed sockpuppets and ensure appropriate actions are taken? --Symonds Gerother (talk) 15:25, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New Group Suspected

I strongly suspect that these two accounts are connected. The first account, Kinderlt, was created four days ago and features a user page stating "Kinderlt from Lahore." The second account, Kindlt, was created just one day ago with a very similar user page stating "Bhat from Lahore." This similarity in usernames, the near-identical user pages, and their apparent origin strongly suggest that these accounts are either operated by the same person or are closely coordinated. Additionally, their behavior appears to involve harassment and actions that disrupt Wikipedia’s policies, which may include vandalism. I recommend a thorough investigation via CheckUser to confirm this connection and take appropriate action to maintain the integrity of Wikipedia. Symonds Gerother (talk) 18:54, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

no Declined not a clear case of abuse using multiple accounts. Simply having two accounts is not a reason for check. Also, the reporting user is blocked.--BRP ever 02:11, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are two more accounts. They are involved with creating Joseph Samuels both here and on Vietnamese Wikipedia. Although the title is "Joseph Samuels", they contain social media links to "Joseph Williams" so I believe they are sockpuppets of the same user. Depextual (talk) 22:28, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
