Only editing on Mohammed uzzal miah, its deletion request and the article's talkpage

Both are editing Mohammed uzzal miah and created on the same day. Check their contributions. Rukbv64bnn and Hbbbbbbkmnnnbb. Zjui3r (talk) 19:43, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, Rukbv64bnn has been CU blocked on en wiki as a sock puppet, see [2]. Also, adding Radikanardi, a brand-new editor that's been active on the same article blanking QD/RFD tags. Definitely WP:MEAT if not full on socking. Ravensfire (talk) 01:44, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I understand your concern, and I want to clarify that both accounts were created by me. I now realize that using multiple accounts in this way goes against Wikipedia’s policies, and I sincerely apologize for any confusion or disruption caused. Moving forward, I will follow Wikipedia's guidelines and only edit using a single account. Please let me know the best way to resolve this situation, and I am open to any necessary steps to correct this Radikanardi (talk) 03:34, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Skillantro accounts

I'm listing up the users around here. The 1st user has a corporate username and caused a QD G11 case, so a spam-username-block has been placed.

The 2nd user has the same corporate username. They have no edits so I only placed a username-block, but they caused Special:AbuseLog/566720 and Special:AbuseLog/566719 at the user page of the 1st user.

The 3rd user also caused Special:AbuseLog/566713 and Special:AbuseLog/566714 at the user page of the 1st user. MathXplore (talk) 14:56, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Superfroggy21 and No more redundancy

On 2nd February, Superfroggy21 (SF) edits the Hellabytes article and on the 2nd February starts a merge discussion at Talk:Hellabyte, SF edited other related articles in between and then stopped editing altogether,

On the 9th February, SF redirects the Hellabytes article to Ronnabytes, No more redundancy (NMR) is then created at 9 Feb 19:44) and a minute later makes their first edit supporting the merge,

It seems a rather big coincidence that NMR had somehow found that merge discussion and knew how to comment, I believe SF was socking in order to decieve people here into believing there was consensus for merging when there obviously wasn't, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 23:49, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, both of them used the same IP address, and were blocked, accoringly. Eptalon (talk) 23:56, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

After this report, Special:Contributions/185.244.154.0/24 removed RFD tag at Battle of Savujbulak (special:diff/10089171) as well as the 3rd user and another user (Baram231 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · SUL · CA · checkuser (log))) arrived at the same page soon after this case (special:diff/10089190), possible plan to escape from CU. MathXplore (talk) 06:21, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Also see this edit on en [7] where an ip in the /24 range admitted to being Tishreen07 while also active here Special:Contributions/185.244.154.116. The edits of late from that /24 are heavily pro-Kurd (which does make sense as it geolocates to Kurdistan) which is typical of Tishreen07's editing style. Ravensfire (talk) 14:41, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I have been dealing with this user on English Wikipedia for almost 2 months. They are constantly making socks. They steal not only my time but also the time of others and they enjoy it. Anyway, especially in this article (simple:List of battles involving Kurds), they do a lot of socks. I want this article to be examined and this is like their main article. They fill every siege or battle as a Kurdish victory. Also, all of the users you added to the investigation were confirmed and blocked on the English Wikipedia. I hope they will be blocked here too, thank you very much MathXplore! (I forgot to add this Tishreen07 was already blocked on Simple wikipedia.
