Followup on RD/C post about "current IP" not in rangeblock
editHi zzuuzz, this is just a update from me regarding that RD/C post where the university's IP was somehow blocked from editing even though the IP did not actually fall into the blocked IP range that was displayed in the block message.
Just today, I stumbled across the same thing on my phone's 4G cellular network! Earlier today I've had to switch over to my phone hotspot from my home FTTP broadband due to a major network outage apparently caused by an act of "vandalism" on a fibre/copper cable running along underneath a bridge (that's what Chorus has said on their website), which is still unresolved as of now. Anyways, if I click the edit button on a private browsing window, I get a "This IP address is blocked from editing" banner, and it will say that the blocked IP range is 122.56.192.0/20. This is the exact same IP range that I had previously encountered over at university. However, it also says that my current IP address is 115.189.89.153, which does not fit into that 122.56.x.x range.
If I go to the talk page button in the upper-right corner and do a preview on a talk page message submission, the IP address that appears is the current one and not an address that is in that blocked range, and there is no red banner saying that the current IP address is blocked anywhere on the page either.
One very important thing worth noting, is that earlier today, i.e. several connection resets ago, the "current IP address" I was on, was actually in that blocked 122.56.x.x range! So I'm guessing this could be some sort of "caching" or maybe an "autoblock" thing that's going on (although it does not say anywhere on the IP blocked banner that it is an autoblock).
I'm not actually asking for help, I just thought I'd add to the curiosity and let you know that this issue is not exclusive to the university network only, as you can see. — AP 499D25 (talk) 12:42, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Interesting. -- zzuuzz (talk) 02:17, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- The next day, the 'rangeblock' had cleared up, although my IP address still stayed the same at 115.189.89.153. — AP 499D25 (talk) 04:56, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

edit... when I need a check on weird. Here are the accounts:
I blocked 'em all as NOTHERE, although it's pretty obvious they're either socks or meat. Are there others? Is this an LTA (I'm guessing yes)? There are also some pages I deleted that have interesting stuff, like "Yoshi is bad and fat. Bbbbbbbb." (Adlorpy's userpage), which seems to be a reference to me, and wasn't there a functionary whose username was similar to Yoshi a long time ago?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:51, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- The UTRS appeal of Use your username (see their Talk page) has some lovely thoughts.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:57, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- More data for you: Chloe is a fish. This one I blocked as a sock.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:45, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- You missed LlamaBoy2 (see deleted). Officially that's all confirmed. We have an article about Yoshi. I'd go with that type of interpretation; other things they're saying say to me that it's a small child. I don't have any more information than that - maybe it's not their first time editing, I'd be surprised if they rank in the LTAs. -- zzuuzz (talk) 02:17, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- Also, I don't know if you can see the latest UTRS update (I guess you can see it). DarwinandBrianEdits, aka MidAtlanticBaby is the other user. -- zzuuzz (talk) 02:38, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm still hung up on my Yoshi memory, but your explanation seems more likely. Any reason why you didn't block LlamaBoy2?--Bbb23 (talk) 13:02, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- None. I thought I might leave that to you since you're already in the game. I wonder if you're thinking of Yunshui? -- zzuuzz (talk) 13:12, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- What game is that? :-) Yes!!! Yunshui. Very polite fellow. I wonder what happened to him?--Bbb23 (talk) 13:19, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- Indeed. I did see a communication where they said they were calmly (presumably quietly) retiring from Wikipedia. -- zzuuzz (talk) 13:25, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- I think the sock was referring to User talk:Yunshui, nice fella. On bureaucrat's noticeboard, I observed Yunshui had requested through email for his permissions to be removed. —usernamekiran (talk) 17:34, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

- @Bbb23: As soon as I saw Use your username I was confident that I had seen the same person before, using more than one account, at least one of which had "username"in it though I don't remember the usernames. If zzuuzz, with magic CU powers, tells me I'm wrong then I'll believe it, but I'm fairly confident. However, I think it was fairly recent, so we may not be in LTA territory. JBW (talk) 09:44, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- It's quite possible that the "username" child has had other accounts. Checkuser here returns results which show a clear connection, but limited to those above over a few days. And when I say connection, I mean it clearly shows they're the same user (and not for example siblings or a school). Separately, the results for DarwinandBrianEdits (as seen at UTRS) are also fairly clear. So I'm not saying anyone was wrong. -- zzuuzz (talk) 10:17, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

editStart with Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/A Rainbow Footing Itand the 3 named accounts: ShinyAlbatross (filer, created 9/1/24); KSDerek (accused sock, created 9/8/24); and A Rainbow Footing It (accused master, created 11/25/23). The one I'm most suspicious of is ShinyAlbatross, partly instinct and partly because they seem to know far more than they should - and username, so many socks like colorful usernames. Also, wasn't there at least one fetish LTA? Naturally, I can't remember the master's name.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:18, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
- I see what you mean, and doesn't that all look like fun. I'm not familiar with any Asian fetish LTA, so don't have anything to really compare to. (this LTA is mentioned in the SPI, and is WP:LTA/BMX, and they're going to be unrelated to any non-obvious LTA edits). Not seeing much else to go on.. I'll have to have a think about the SPI .. the accounts appear unrelated. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:31, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

Username similarity
editZZenyx, created August 17, created hoax User:ZZenyx/Typhoon Isaac (Julian) (said they were just having fun). Didn't like my deletion. Took me to AN for "misconduct". Probable storm sock. See also this edit to the Wikipedia sandbox where they mention "Skibidi toilet", something I've seen a lot of in VOAs and socks, although I'm not really sure why. Who is it?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:55, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- Who keeps mentioning Skibidi toilet? 90% of Generation Alpha. See Skibidi Toilet, maybe especially the 'see also' section. I think I'll need more data for the other stuff. -- zzuuzz (talk) 06:47, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- Alphas huh? Maybe it's the ones who never properly completed potty training. I'm aware of our article, but I still stick to my own experience on Wikipedia that the users I've noticed referring to it are either socks or vandals - or trolls.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:12, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

HurricaneKirk2024’s unfortunate and unnecessary encounter with SPI
editI am going to bring this up here (I also pinged you to the SPI page); since you were on the recently active list.
Can you please close the SPI(s) on HurricaneKirk2024? Because no one (not even the one who originally reported him) thinks he’s a sockpuppet anymore. He has no idea what’s going on. I had to explain to him what a closing admin does. He’s genuinely a new editor who was unlucky enough to choose the wrong username.
The relevant pages are: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Lokicat3345; Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Andrew5.
I brought this issue up with two other administrators and also pinged every administrator/CU who has ever commented on Lokicat hoping for a response. Hurricane Clyde 🌀my talk page! 22:58, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Redacted post?
editI'm approaching you because you helped me four years ago when I'd been hit by a sitewide IP block by an over-zealous steward whose email was closed and I could post nowhere (I didn't then know about UTRS or the bits of meta which might have been accessible), and because you have magic goggles. As an earnest of good faith, that incident inspired me to write WP:VULTURE.
This isn't to me alarming, but it's odd. My edit history shows a redacted post at 18:05 2024-10-19. You won't need to scroll deep, it's in the top half-dozen. It's one of the remarkable set of several dozen consecutive redactions in WP:ANI history between 12:39 2023-1019 and 20:45 the same day (2nd 500 as I write). My post may be the one visible in WP:ANI#Persistent edit warring in Balkans-related articles beginning "A good example".
Should you wish to contact me privately - though I see no need, this is beyond my pay grade - my email is open. Narky Blert (talk)
- @Narky Blert: So a strikethrough by a double line in suppression, whereas a strike with a single line (as can often be seen in the history of this page) is revision deletion, with this being an example of the former. Since the revision you edited still contained a copy of the offending text, it also gets wiped. You can sometimes get a hint about what the problem was by looking at the first suppressed edit, which is where the text was introduced, as well as the first edit after suppression, which is where the text was removed. It's fairly normal for ANI to have loads of redaction as it's a busy page and things might not get noticed immediately, which means there's a load of revisions containing the verboten text. -- zzuuzz (talk) 19:37, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,

Your draft article, Draft:Al Cheznovitz
editHello, Zzuuzz. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Al Cheznovitz".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 22:56, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, Zzuuzz,
- You created a Redirect at this page title when you moved an article 8 years and the page sat there with no problems. Then, this year, an editor decided to use this page to create a draft article and when it went stale and was eligible for CSD G13 speedy deletion, Twinkle saw you as the page creator. So, apologies for the unnecessary notice. Liz Read! Talk! 23:00, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
I always reserve weird for you
editThis started because Jake18288 posted an odd message to Ewrtgbte3fe's Talk page, a user whom I blocked yesterday as VOA without TPA. After that, you can see our tortured discussion on Jake18288's Talk page, which finally resulted in my blocking him as a sock. His comments are twisted, bordering on incoherent (one of his sentences on the vandal's Talk page is choice: "It’s important not to put messages in my messages because they are not part of my messages."). I could block some of the other accounts, but a check would be not only useful to comfirm him, but to look for others, including the possibility of an LTA.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:00, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Bbb23. We love the weird. Weird in, weird out. So Ewrtgbte3fe appears to be some LTA of a particular flavour, and appears unrelated. Maybe the content of their edits will yield an ID for them, but I don't recognise it. I expect MrOllie or Untamed1910 will have some ideas. Jake18288's edit to Ewrtgbte3fe's talk page can be entirely explained by Special:Diff/1260860536. As for Jake18288, I think Knowledgeseeker2828 may be theirs, but I'm not going to put any money on it. I may have found another 'new' account which may be a throwaway and doesn't appear unconstructive. I'm not seeing any previous problems. All in all, factoring in the state of constructiveness, typical learning curves, and some technical stuff, I'm not going to do anything more about it. Some may colour me lenient, but I'm just looking to prevent disruption. Unless there's more to this than I can find, my inclination would be a one-account message and/or some kind of reboot. FTR, Humblegamer36 appears unrelated. -- zzuuzz (talk) 19:54, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for checking and for your comments. The user hasn't made an unblock request. I certainly don't intend to unblock him. He seems to think he can create accounts at will and has stated "I’m gonna create my new account next week". Also, based just on this account's history, he's, in my view and speaking bluntly, an incompetent troll.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:04, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Jake18288 is probably User:Masierra2008. Ewrtgbte3fe is less distinctive, could be a number of people. MrOllie (talk) 20:17, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- I appreciate the guess. I think I'd discount that likelihood. -- zzuuzz (talk) 20:31, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Revdel
editHello! I've seen your revdel in User:86.124.117.39 for multiple vandalism. Is it possible to have their request for unblock on talk page revdeled or struck down also per the words in their request? See [3]. Borgenland (talk) 04:01, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
