Suspected sockpuppets


Samwelltarly1's rather aggressive behaviour at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ashmead Choate and their talk page reminded of a case a few days earlier: User talk:Smith1122, and via User talk:Kuru#Request of clarification, this may well be connected to User talk:Dave8899. All three accounts edit in the field of jihadism/militant Islam, mostly trying to, uhm... decrease the negativity... in related pages, e.g. Dave8899, Smith1122, Samwelltarly1. They have also edited the page Ahlam al-Nasr to make it look better. Their behaviour towards others (especially towards those who disagree) is also remarkable, to say the least, which is most evident from the way they reply on their user talk pages: 1. aggressive 2. using numbered series of arguments (like I am doing here now as clarification) and 3. almost never using the indentation etiquette. --HyperGaruda (talk) 12:40, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is clear duck case. This account was created after the block of Dave. The account Orangepeel88 is trying to protect the articles created by Dave. And his edit summary has the scent of an experienced user.

Orangepeel has interest in same topics and he has kept the pages created by dave under his watchlist.

If CU can't connect them, then this is meat puppetry. Orangepeel's articles should be deleted and his edits reverted. Dave has some kind of obsession with terrorists.

Any terrorist is killed in any air strike. And he will create his biography from some run of the mill website. Marvellous Spider-Man 00:39, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Very strong behavioral evidence at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Omran Daqneesh.

Could be Dave's friend. With only 15 edits on English Wikipedia, he created a highly decorated userpage User:Pivox. Marvellous Spider-Man 01:18, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Block evasion by trying to save the sock master's jihadism-related creations, like here, but more overlapping editing patterns can be found in the contributions (basically all contributions overlap). This ip address apparently was blocked before. HyperGaruda (talk) 18:56, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: could the closing admin please rollback this IP's edits, since they were made while the block is in force? Thanks --HyperGaruda (talk) 14:10, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This case is being reviewed by GeneralizationsAreBad as part of the clerk training process. Please allow him to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on his Talk page or on this page if more appropriate.

 Clerk note: The contributions indicate an obvious case of block evasion, such as removing PROD tags; I've reverted their edits as such. Admin action requested: Please block this IP for 2 weeks, as it has been used by this master since late July. (Note also the previous 2-week block on August 5.) Thank you, GABgab 16:46, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The IP is now blocked for a month. Closing. GABgab 18:42, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
