Appears to be PrideOfKorea back again, adding the same text in the same editor's userspace. Choson is a name for Korea and also a Korean historical period Shirt58 (talk) 06:51, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Has vandalised User:The Banner and User talk:The Banner by making the exact same edits as User:KoreanGlory, which was blocked by Materialscientist for personal attacks and harassment. Michaelzeng7 (talk) 02:25, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Same attack as from sockmaster, KoreanGlory (was he picked up in this case?), KoreanAsNo1 and Choson77. Please also have a look at SuperKorea and KoreaPlutinum, who were attacking on the Dutch Wikiepedia in the same style. A check for sleepers seems useful.

Can some check if there is any relation with Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Truesight/Archive and/ or Rusk documents? That is, as far as I know, my only foray into Korean subjects... The Banner talk 12:19, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

SuperKorea (talk · contribs) is  Confirmed. KoreaPlutinum as a username doesn't exist on en.wiki, so cannot be checked. A range has been blocked. WilliamH (talk) 12:27, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

After a period of quietness the Koreans are back. For quite a while I have Korean sockpuppets coming on and of to start roaring and vandalising at my user page and talk page. This is clearly another go. Recently (2 August), I had this vandalism on my userpage. Obviously related. The user names make it very likely that both are related to the older sock puppeteer "PrideOfKorea" whos's sockpuppetes had the same style of editing.

I endorse this report. Both accounts are making the same attacks as the previous socks, and to the same page. The vandalism/personal attacks alone warrant a block. —Psychonaut (talk) 18:51, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Some Japanese (result of an check user on the Dutch Wikipedia) frust claiming to be Korean. Also putting in some grossly insulting text about Koreans in a very big lettertype. This time: [1]. Other times: [2]], [3], [4]. All with the same pattern.

No checkuser necessary, as the last one is a year old and will be stale. And most of the accounts are throw away accounts, only made just before the attack. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/PrideOfKorea/Archive. The Banner talk 20:06, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
