Suspected sockpuppets


Evidence submitted by J. M.


The user Waterfly99 created his account on 24 August 2009 to continue adding spam links to http://imediacreator.com to various articles dealing with multimedia. He was re-adding the links despite being repeatedly warned that this is considered spamming. After he got a final warning, he went back to his old account (where he has only one warning so far, so he cannot get banned so quickly) and keeps on adding the same spam link to http://imediacreator.com to the same article(s). See their contributions, the only thing this user is doing under both nicknames and also under the IP address is adding links to http://imediacreator.com. His last edit even replaced a legitimate and useful link to Microsoft's documentation with his own spam link. So in addition to blocking both accounts and the IP address, I would also suggest blacklisting http://imediacreator.com.

P.S. Please don't get confused by his first two edits ([1], [2]) which linked to wordpress.com—they're just "proxy" pages that, again, advertize http://imediacreator.com.

Suspected sockpuppets


Shenuna is yet another nickname for Fishup2008 (see the previous sockpuppet investigation), a spammer whose edits consisted solely of advertising the Wondershare company (usually in the External links sections) that makes various multimedia software products. Fishup2008 and his sock puppets have been blocked indefinitely, but Shenuna continues spamming under the new name. Please note that while Fishup2008 and Waterfly99 were only advertising imediacreator.com, Shenuna advertises not only imediacreator.com, but also icollageformac.com—so please don't get confused by this, they are the same company, Wondershare, as you can see on the websites. That's why, like in my previous report, I would like to ask you to blacklist imediacreator.com and icollageformac.com, too, because, as you can see, blocking the user does not help—when he gets banned for sock puppetry, he just uses another account and continues adding the same spam links advertising Wondershare.

Yet another nickname for the spammer (blocked several times already under various names and IP addresses) who only advertises Wondeshare websites, which are now on the blacklist. J. M. (talk) 21:59, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
