Suspected sockpuppets

Ok, I'll try this again. We've had two editors coming into the Teahouse and asking questions in a very similar style and asking very intense questions and leaving comments about why people get blocked, repeatedly. It starts here Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions#How_do_I_auto_archive_my_talk_page and you can continue to scroll down to see the suspected two socks asking questions in a similar style and again, about similar subjects. Still hoping we can get checkuser on this. Thanks.

Vocednitore commented here that 20th shows some remarkable similarities to WBJB03, including asking for how-tos on formatting their signature, archiving their talk page, etc. Monareal's behavior *could* be good-hand/bad-hand, but I don't know that there's any real behavioral link between them. As an aside, how do I un-archive WBJB03's case to add 20thtryer as a sock? Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 15:55, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New user has the same article creation habits as Deathlaser. The new user joined the day after deathlaser retired. They both use(d) short, incomplete citations and references without a publisher and have the same ways of blanking comments off their talk page(s).

I see similarities with User:Deathlasersonline, who was just blocked as a sock of WOLfan112. Both use "--" before the name in their signature. Both say "leave me alone" a lot. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:39, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, Deathlasersonline and Democracy112 edits dovetail to the minute. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:56, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, both mass-produced physics/chemistry and fauna stubs then walked away from them. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:58, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Someone may want to merge Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Deathlaser/Archive into the archives for WOLfan112. LadyofShalott 02:45, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

http://internetprotocol.wikia.com/wiki/Special:RecentChanges basically speaks for itself. The general lack of maturity, and almost immediate use of tools such as Twinkle and adding template:copy to commons on articles made it quite obvious it was a sock, and WOLfan112/Deathlasers was my first though.

Nothing else. Clearly a block-evading sock, though. --MuZemike 17:58, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This and this make me believe it's the same user - Their behavior on IRC was often immature (Shouting in all caps frequently, demanding CSD tags be removed, etc.) A quick check of the IP TAU connected to IRC with, and an IP WOLfan112 connected to IRC with showed that it was the same ISP. Also, note, TAU's fourth edit on Simple Wikipedia was enabling Twinkle, as WOLfan/Deathlaser usually does with early edits. Frood! Ohai What did I break now? 20:23, 28 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The IP reverted back to this edit which had been made by User:HelloWorldTestAccount -- a confirmed sockpuppet. Geo Swan (talk) 10:30, 27 August 2012 (UTC) Geo Swan (talk) 10:30, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • That geolocates to Toronto, and likely is him, but it is a cell phone IP so has likely rotated and no need to block for technical reasons. Kind of outed himself by doing that, as that is the first IP in the nest of socks that are WOLfan112. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © Join WER 10:49, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

TheQuestionerPro was originally blocked as a sock of Technoquat but they protested to being labeled that way. After I ran some checks, it looked more like they were actually WOLfan112. TheQuestionerPro then admitted to GorillaWarfare that they previously edited as WOLfan112. Report submitted for the record. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 15:15, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
