Reason(s): Multiple user accounts editing the same article in a similar fashion in a short period of time, one of the user denies being sock, check is requested by clerk to verify sock claims. Luciferian Thomas 17:15, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

The account patterns are very similar.. Although they are on the same ISP, this alone does not indicate a strong connection; I have no choice but to declare this. --Sotiale (talk) 11:13, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

FortzaGROUP (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser )
OTVMusicTurkey (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser )
Reason(s): Likely socks of Де Спор България — same editing pattern can be observed for the suspected users, as it was the case with all of their previous socks: creating multiple pages about fictitious radio/TV channels (and also their fictitious parent companies). Those were deleted, while their socks were indef blocked. A big red flag for me here is the name of one of the recently created pages (O-TV) which also happens to partially match/contain the name of a previous sock (Otvmusicbulgaria). Thanks in advance!

I couldn't find any other accounts, and I can't confirm whether they are the user you suggested because I don't have any previous data. --Sotiale (talk) 12:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Oh, my mistake, sorry about that. I thought that pointing the discussion link (bg:Уикипедия:Разследвания на марионетки/Де Спор България) where the puppeteer account and all of the socks were mentioned would've helped somehow. I'll add the puppeteer account next time that I'm making a request here. Anyway, after making this request I've found further evidence of sockpuppetry. Your confirmation just solidified that. Thanks again! Ted Masters (talk) 12:53, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Edd8381 (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser )
Reason(s): Both accounts are specifically focused on Sandžak-related articles, with direct overlap in edits related to Jusuf Mehonjić and the Šahovići massacre. Edits to both accounts are tagged as having been made from a mobile device. Srđan (talk) 12:51, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

From a technical point of view. --Sotiale (talk) 09:20, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Shadiaoshuai (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser )
Andy AKE (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser )
Reason(s): Local admin suspects that the above two users are related to the extent of possible socks. Despite Shadiaoshuai argues that he/she/they (ah, the pronouns) is a friend of Andy AKE, local admin suspects that the relationship isn't that natural given the similar editing behavior in the article zh:金正恩 (Kim Jong Un).‎ Given there are possibilities of further hidden accounts, a sleeper check is also requested. Thanks in advance. {\displaystyle \int } {\displaystyle \int }() 05:02, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Zupspim (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser )
Reason(s): This user has been suspected to conduct logout edits for vandalism via multiple different IP bands. A check for logout edits is therefore requested from the local community, including one of the local admins. Thanks in advance. {\displaystyle \int } {\displaystyle \int }() 17:41, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
They are already blocked as indefinite with TP block. --Sotiale (talk) 13:04, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
Is it possible to look for sleepers within that IP band? Thanks. {\displaystyle \int } {\displaystyle \int }() 13:15, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
I have just updated the request with another user name provided by another clerk @94rain:. {\displaystyle \int } {\displaystyle \int }() 13:17, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
Since you've already found IPs similar to their behavior, I'm guessing you've already found the suspicious account if they have one. I think the only thing left is an explanation of what they are similar to and if there are any doubts. --Sotiale (talk) 13:22, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
Well, I believe it's more about looking for account sleepers within that range, not the IP itself. New evidence of Zupspim (zh:Special:diff/82759276) suggests that it is an abuser who holds multiple banned accounts, and therefore the sleeper check was endorsed. {\displaystyle \int } {\displaystyle \int }() 22:42, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
