Suspected sockpuppets

DUCK. Account created 4 days after master User:Skyline201 blocked
Behaviour:

  • all minor edits
  • all edits have no edit summary
  • upload of images
  • creation of trance music articles (at least some by same label)
  • and addition of unsourced content
  • overlapping articles, most frequent ones:
  • Part of sockfarm around this trance label, dozens of articles and accounts (see connected on some of them, and AfDs) - this is the first SPI so checkuser requested Widefox; talk 07:19, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There's many other accounts clustered around these articles. Not listed here to keep this simple, and the others don't have such a distinctive editing behaviour as these two. Widefox; talk 08:25, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Both Fanultradance and the IPs have taken over where the last sock User:Electro Ultra 217 left off. Electro Ultra 217 was blocked on 22 April 2016. The IP started on 28 April and others followed on from that. There is a huge crossover of articles such as Ace (Scooter album) from the last SPI. Others Moments (Darude album) [12], Acoustic II [13], Danceaholic [14], List of MAX Light Rail stations [15]

Some sameness

MAX Light Rail Station photos.

Fanultradance adding photo [16] after an User:AsianmanR390 (another sock) photo was removed after a Toyota97 photo was removed.
IP97.120.63.73 adding Electro Ultra 217's photo [17] after an Electro Ultra 217 photo was removed after a Toyota97 photo was removed.
IP97.120.63.73 adding Electro Ultra 217's photo [18] after an Electro Ultra 217 photo was removed after an EDMultra7 photo was removed after a Toyota97 photo was removed.

Edit warring on year removal from Ace (Scooter album). [19] egs

Electro Ultra 217 [20] "please do not clear the recorded year"
IP97.120.63.73 [21] "Please do not removed the recorded year"

  1. Merge this into Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Skyline201.
  2. Review 75.164.150.75’s contributions to determine whether a block is appropriate. The other IPs are stale.
  3. Retag all the named accounts and close.
  • @Ponyo: I didn't leave it to you; see what happens when you butt in? Thanks for blocking the IP, but the rest of it should be dealt with by the clerk. I noticed, Ponyo, that you messed up at least one tag, but all the accounts have to be properly tagged, and I didn't even look to see if you retagged the archived socks. If you did, regardless of whether you did it right, I thank you for your efforts.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:48, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • (Throws hands up in air) I was just trying to clear out some old checked cases that have been waiting for Clerk attention for ages! I have learned my lesson and will leave such paperwork for those more in the know than I. I never Clerked before becoming a CU, it's clearly my Achilles heel. --Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 19:59, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
