Suspected sockpuppets

edit

I originally noticed EditMeSOOOCrazy and WikiWithMe engaging in somewhat incoherent discussions on talk pages. I contacted NinjaRobotPirate about it in this thread. My general write-up was:

Hey NRP, I don't have time to look into this at present, but WikiWithMe and EditMeSOOOCrazy seem to be leaving weirdly non-specific and slightly incoherent posts on talk pages and it just sounds like one guy talking to himself.
EditMeSOOOCrazy
There is a lot of focus on "messing up".
WikiWithMe
Anyway, there's a pattern here that should be scrutinized. I don't see a huge amount of interesection though. If you have time, I'd appreciate an adminly eye. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:36, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Needless to say, NinjaRobotPirate uncovered a host of other accounts, which I am memorializing here. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:42, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Added false information to the Just Dance 2021 page similar to a previous sock and when I left a uw-error message on their talk page they responded by harassing me and bringing up another sock who had previously sent me a death threat. They are also vandalizing the Lil Yachty discography page similar to the previously mentioned sock. CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 17:32, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The IP address from yesterday’s report was blocked for 31 hours for harassment and vandalism. Now this IP is making identical edits as the previous sock. CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 13:34, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They have already been blocked for reasons unrelated to socking and harassing me (edit warring and adding false information), but I am reporting them so they can be tagged as a sock. They have also been blocked globally for behavior similar to a previous sock, see below. They created their userpage and included a personal attack against me with no justification. I had no idea who this user was until I randomly stumbled upon their page after they edited one of the pages on my watchlist earlier today and that was weeks after they did this so I had no prior interaction with them that would cause such an attack if they weren't a sock. They later admitted they were harassing me due to me blocking their "friend" on FANDOM similar to a previous sock. See previous reports for more details. They have also been acting hostile and abusive, again similar to the previous socks. See this sock's global log, and compare it to this sock. CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 00:52, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edit: It appears someone performed a CheckUser minutes after this request, confirming my suspicions, after globally blocking this sock. CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 01:19, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User's very first edit admitted to being rangeblocked and they use profanity in their edit summaries, similar to previous socks. They also created a language thing almost identical to a previous sock. They have also been reverting pages back to the last version published by a previous sock.

Technical evidence, as well as some of the behaviour, says that these are socks of DarwinandBrianEdits. Blocked, locked, and tagged. -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:22, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Currently they are reverting a ton of edits that are reverting another sock's edits. Sorry if that is a bit of a mouthful. Gaismagorm (talk) 14:11, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
