Suspected sockpuppets

[edit]

What caught my eye is that User:Rsazr recreated the page Landing on Gagra which was deleted via G5.

I think the topic interests quack the loudest. Pinging Bbb23 as the blocking admin of previous socks. Seawolf35 (talk - email) 18:24, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thought I just might add this for the record, editing patterns often involve changing flag icons and adding stuff about Abkhaz sepratists with wikilinks into articles. Seawolf35 (talk - email) 18:38, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Adding User:Brjezierski per below comment. Seawolf35 (talk - email) 03:00, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Blocked and tagged. Leaving the CU request in case someone wants to look for others. Although the account was created the same day, technically Rsazr is older than Nugo20299, but I see no need to change the master unless an earlier account is found.

  • The filer posted to my Talk page saying that they think Shnorakalutsyun is another sock. The behavior looks the same to me, but for the moment, I haven't blocked them. They were created a couple of days before the earlier two accounts I mentioned before, so they would be the master if no other accounts are found. At this point, I think it best for a CU to be run. I may block the latest account anyway if the CU isn't run "soon". I know the CU requested category is backed up.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:40, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I took a look and, youch, this needs a more detailed look than I have time for right now. Looks like the following are socks:
  • I want to be clear, though, I'm not yet confirming them and I'm not making any claims back to Nugo20299 yet. I'll take a more detailed look tomorrow morning unless another checkuser comes along in the meanwhile. --Yamla (talk) 01:59, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User recreated Battle of Choloki (1918) and Battle of Mokvi monastery previously G5'ed by another sock, Nugoooo. Battle of Choloki (1918) log and Battle of Mokvi monastery log and then Battle of Ochamchire, previously G5'ed by another sock Rsazr, Battle of Ochamchire log. I can't see the G5'ed page Gagra offensive created by sock, Nugoooo, otherwise I'd compare it to Battle of Gagra (1919) created by Baey123. Same topic interest, particularly List of Georgian battles and Abkhazia operation: diff 1 and diff 2. Annwfwn (talk) 13:09, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I cannot link Baey123 to other accounts based on technical evidence, though they editing on busy ranges with some proxy use, so I may have missed something. I cannot rule out meatpuppetry.  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation Vanamonde93 (talk) 00:36, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Many of the articles seem like translations from Georgian Wikipedia, but aside from a shared interest I'm not able to find behavioral evidence to tie these accounts together. no Closing without action The WordsmithTalk to me 17:01, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A confirmed sock of Nugo20299, before getting blocked, changed "etnic" to "etnhographic" [1] and removed "ethnic" category [2]. After being blocked, another user does the same thing [3]. Please also check for other active or sleeper socks because there might be more given the history of Nugo20299. Vanezi (talk) 09:35, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
