CU log

Reason(s): These two users, the first of which has been blocked for a year (vandalism, aggressive behavior, disregard for rules and regulations), present a very similar edit pattern and show some identical grammatical errors. For security reasons, as an administrator on sh.wiki, I would like them to be checked --Edgar Allan Poe (talk) 10:50, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

CU log

Reason(s): Hello, I come to ask you to verify whether there are linkages between these accounts, this because they have been creating repeatedly articles of topics related to Argentina that do not meet the requirements of this project and therefore most likely be try a school group that is trying to experiment with Wikinews. Alvaro Molina (Let's Talk) 03:17, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

I'm not sure a CU will be of much help here. If the users are misbehaving, then the block of the accounts can be justified without checkuser evidence. If the news articles are out of project scope, you can also delete them. —Marco Aurelio 17:38, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

Verification is not longer necessary, they are treated students of the journalism career of University of Córdoba, Argentina. Thank you. -- Alvaro Molina (Let's Talk) 18:41, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

CU log
Discussion: m:Special:Diff/11358928#Checkusers and oversighters on nowiki

Reason(s): Sorry for bringing this case up again, but I'm hoping for a definitive confirmation that these and previously accounts linked to the vandalism account Mynas belong to the same person. Stpkn has previously been confirmed (Steward_requests/Checkuser/2016-05#Tyrredal.40no.wikipedia). Stpkn is currently blocked for disturbing behaviour since June 7. His edits were related to recent edits from 195.204.59.7, and 195.204.59.0/24 was range blocked (after Stpkn's initial edits) for both unregistered and registered users. 25 minutes later, Stpkn was back editing once before being blocked. I assume his first edits were from 195.204.59.0/24, and then another IP range after the range block. If this last edit (https://no.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brukerdiskusjon:4ing&diff=prev&oldid=16441447) also links the account to BLÆKK and Hovde, I think the evidence is clear. Hovde has confirmed that he is using the account BLÆKK, and also that he has "taken over" the account Mynas-19. BTW, Stpkk1's only edit was to cast a vote in an ongoing admin election.

Confirmed. You can try to block 85.167.0.0/18, 85.166.64.0/18, 78.156.8.0/21, 176.10.227.88/29, 193.160.28.0/24, 193.91.160.0/21, 193.213.88.0/21, 84.48.9.0/24, 62.92.8.0/22, though there may be some collateral damage. Ruslik (talk) 18:38, 11 June 2016 (UTC)

CU log
Discussion: Example

Reason(s): Diogenes4196 is registered in 8 June, and his only contributions are changing the map of Yuan dynasty (mark Goryeo as a part of Yuan) in many wiki projects. his behavior is very like 769haas does in English Wikipedia recently[3]. 769haas change the map of Yuan in en wp in 8 June [4], just in the some day Diogenes4196 is registered. So, I suspected that Diogenes4196 is a sock puppet of 769haas.

in addition, Diogenes4196 also upload new map, marking Goryeo as a part of Yuan [5] just like 769haas do before [6]

Reason(s): Edit pattern raises the strong suspicion that Aliuorgio may be a recent sockpuppet of w:ro:Utilizator:BAICAN XXX, banned project-wide, who maintains a very prolific clone farm.

"Guntur Irawan" Last edit was on 26 July 2013 at 05:07. Technically all other socks edited from different IPs (same range) using 3 different UA. But I say those are ducks. They're blocked. ✒ Bennylin 16:38, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

@Bennylin: Sorry to bother, I'm new to this and would appreciate some clarifications. Guntur Irawan's last edit on Wikidata was on 7 April 2016, 07:11, not 2013. Can you explain what you mean by "UA" ? I do believe that all these sockpuppets were blocked by admins on WD, but I was hoping you could identify a scheme to prevent further account creations. Do you mean that the IP pattern is not clear enough to identify a single block opportunity and that the only way to address the issue is to keep blocking new ducks when we detect them? --Laddo (talk) 23:49, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

Yes, that's what he meant. The user agents were the same but there is no way to block accounts by user agent. Ajraddatz (talk) 23:56, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

Is a range block not feasible? By the way, here's another new account: Special:CentralAuth/GunturIrSub20. - Nikki (talk) 08:22, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Done by Ajr, also GunturIrSubagiyo18tahun. Am afraid range block is not possible. There's many unrelated users in that range (from loginwiki check)

Reason(s): User has been returning to NL-WQ with self-confessed sock puppets which he says he creates through proxies. Don't need confirmation these are sock puppets, that much is clear, but can you identify the proxies through which these are created and through which he logs in and can these be locked down?
