Reason(s): The user created some pages in multiple projects under his original name (see 1, 2). he has used his name in one of published news in Persian Wikinews (3) the article in urwiki has interwiki to a user page under his username in arwiki, also he used fake sources to promote his own website on Wikinews (4) which is deleted now by local sysop and the first username who has created these news articles is blocked, let us know if the other username is himself.  Mjbmr (discussion • contribs) 10:47, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
Not done - CU data on those users will be stale by now (and would've already been when this was requested. -Barras talk 15:57, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
It was not convincing. many requests were done for fawiki after submitting this and before your reply. Mjbmr (discussion • contribs) 16:24, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
As you will surely have noticed, I rarely take care of requests here, actually only when no one else takes care of those requests. However, that doesn't change the fact that the data will be stale and any CU would be pointless. -Barras talk 16:32, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
So you skipped this request to give me this reason. Mjbmr (discussion • contribs) 16:39, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
You never reply any messages in IRC tho. BTW this user has left enough evidences by cross-wiki contributing. Mjbmr (discussion • contribs) 16:43, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
I don't always watch my IRC bouncers, so I don't always notice messages there. Anyway, I don't have to reply there anyway, especially when things are being discussed on-wiki. That request is for fa.wn, where the data is stale. We don't usually run checks on maybe uk.wq for stuff that is absolutely not related to this wiki but to a totally different wiki. -Barras talk 17:10, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
OK. Mjbmr (discussion • contribs) 17:26, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

I am Mary, Mother of Jesus (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): This editor, under various guises, has now made multiple rape/death threats against other editors. See here and here. I feel that I am therefore obligated to determine whether this editor is located in one of the many jurisdictions where it is a crime to make a death threat over the Internet, and if so, to report this to the appropriate legal authorities for investigation. To this end, I would appreciate a Checkuser report on this editor. BD2412 T 16:57, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
Under the circumstances; it would be better to notify WMF Legal (legal(_AT_)wikimedia.org) to follow the matter up instead of encouraging a steward to do so. They would defer anyway so might as well cut out a middle man. John F. Lewis (talk) 17:03, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
Also emergency(_AT_)wikimedia.org. See en:WP:VIOLENCE. --Glaisher (talk) 17:05, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
I don't consider this an emergency, as I have no reason to believe that the editor making the threats has an immediate ability to carry them out. This is, however, criminal and unacceptable behavior. Per John F. Lewis, I have emailed the Foundation. Cheers! BD2412 T 17:20, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
Not done this is outside the purview and scope of the stewards, and within the purview of the Legal department of the Wikimedia foundation, reachable from LCA, but with which I believe the requesting user is already in contact. Snowolf How can I help? 03:00, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Farschyd (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Neekan (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): I have blocked user:Eksonym because it seems that his account is created only for doing some dummy edits on fa:پیرانشهر article so the previous edits won't be easily traceable. Unfortunately the indefinite semi-protection does not seem to be enough. Also because of this revert I'm convinced that Modanlou2014 is a sock puppet of Neekan. All other accounts are engaged in an edit war in the article and their contribution is mostly centered around removing some parts of this article. I suspect they all belong to the same user trying to create an illusion of support. Also would like to know if there are any sleepers. Thanks. Dalba 24 Azar 1393/ 05:45, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
The following socks are  Confirmed: Iranian2010, Secretari, Eksonym, Modanlou2014, Piranshahrinejad, Farschyd, Rambodnikraftar, Parsamanesch1, Neekan, Noorgostar, Knowledgian, Poiplos, Solhjoo. Ruslik (talk) 20:18, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

80.134.84.12 (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): Tamawashi joined Wikidata in May 2014. Smart user, but quickly got himself into trouble including several blocks after 28 July 2014 the account was no longer used. In November 2014 the account Andrea Shan was created and it was obvious that this was not a novice user and the editing behavior was very similar to Tamawashi. After several run ins with other users the account was last used on 5 December 2014. On 7 December 2014 the account Frank Robertson was created. On 15 December I left the user a note giving him/her the chance to come clean. The account hasn't edited since. The user now seems to be using ipaddresses, first 91.9.120.70 and second 80.134.84.12. Both a registered to the same provider. If you look at d:Wikidata:Properties for deletion (pl. Examples: [1] & [2]) you'll see multiple deletion discussions were multiple of these accounts/ip's participated. Multichill (talk) 22:45, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
Firstly, Tamawashi's CheckUser data is stale, and secondly, CheckUser won't connect IP addresses to accounts.--Jasper Deng (talk) 22:48, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
Doing... Trijnsteltalk 13:39, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
Tamawashi is indeed Stale. Andrea Shan and Frank Robertson are  Confirmed. It's very Likely Likely that Perfektinski, John B. Sullivan, Vladimir Gribochev, Tajistan and Derianus are related too. Derianus and Vladimir Gribochev are already blocked on the English Wikipedia as socks of the long-term sockpuppeteer Tobias Conradi, see the report. I've informed the English Wikipedia checkusers and arranged some IP blocks on Wikidata. Thanks for the report! Trijnsteltalk 17:46, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

Reason(s): This users have duck edit in fa.wiki and fa.wikivoyage plz check for Sock puppetr. Thanks Florence (talk) 15:01, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
Maybe I'm missing something, but User:Pryamo seems to have no edits, no logs, no abuse logs or deleted contributions on fawikivoyage, so I'm unsure why they're even blocked. The IP seems to be greeting somebody in their only edit. User:اوگتای قاآن seems to have made a personal attack in their only edit, tho from what it looks on google translate, nothing that unusual that got revdeleted (including even the user's username, which I do not believe was offensive, was it? The last user seems to be happily editing fawikivoyage and has been granted patroller and autopatroller permissions. I don't see what the grounds for a check are here. I do not see what the connection is. I also note that you claim above that this is obvious sockpuppetry (by bringing up en:WP:DUCK), if that is the case, please block as needed, we do not perform checks if the connection is so obvious as to not require a check to be confirmed. I am marking this as not done but do feel free to bring up additional evidence if you believe that there is actually a connection that has not been shown here. Snowolf How can I help? 17:22, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Nocan@meta.wikimedia.org

Status:    Locally handled
List of users
Nocan (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): User:Nocan makes it clear that the account is solely created for the purpose of this discussion. He / She claims to be a person closely involved with the Wikimedia India community. But, his / her writing style indicates that this could be a person with a potential conflict of interest posing as a community member. Recent grant request discussions regarding operations in India are full of such potential sock puppets and this culture of sockpuppeting has created trust deficit in the community and lack of coordination between all stakeholders. Therefore, I file this checkuser request hoping this negative trend be stopped and people are encouraged to BE BOLD and express their views in their original user id.--Mariano Anto Bruno Mascarenhas (talk) 11:09, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

Cronenberg@da.wikiquote

List of users
Cronenberg (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Scavenius (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): Both of the users here has been made to do "not support" on an administrator application. The only edits that the two users has made is of course "not support" and if you know Danish, then you can tell that they type in the same way. You can find the application here [3]. Thanks! --Simeondahl (talk) 18:14, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 It looks like a duck to me, however, since it's about an ongoing RfA, I've run the check anyway. From technical point of view it's very Likely Likely that those are the same person. The edits and that both accounts are newly created only to oppose an RfA (with no edits globally before) and the fact that they've the same user information makes it pretty clear, despite using different IPs. -Barras talk 19:26, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the help. --Simeondahl (talk) 20:07, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
I can in the name of truth prove that my user account represents me and Cronenberg represents a friend of mine. So if Simeondahl agree a physical meeting somewhere in Denmark, he will be able to get this friend confirmed by personal inspection. Thus, there is certainly no question of a so-called duck, but two legitimate user accounts based on two different IP addresses. --Scavenius (talk) 15:24, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
