Hey there DeltaQuad, please see this notice that I sent to Mlpearc for a small discussion on this page. I wonder if it's relevant anymore though, especially Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Helpers, and it may need some sort of project restart, though I have my doubts what with the stewards at Meta sharing most of the workload already.

Can we get blocks placed on the underlying IP addresses? Werieth ( talk) 18:36, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi DeltaQuad, the oldest account in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kimse (formerly Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Stuckos) has just filed an unblock request. I was wondering if you or DoRD could take a look at it since the block was based on CU data. Mark Arsten ( talk) 01:36, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
Hello, DeltaQuad. I hope you can help me, or direct me to where I should raise this issue. I am asking here because DeltaQuadBot appears to be used for monitoring inappropriate user names.
A user called Misses001 moved her/his user page from User talk:Misses001 to User talk:Gabriela N. There is no registered user called Gabriela N. There is, however, a content article about a singer called Gabriela N, which was created by Misses001. This seems to suggest that Misses001 is Gabriela N, which is either an autobiography / conflict of interest problem, or a false suggestion in contravention of username policy. I think. What's your take? Cnilep ( talk) 02:28, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello everyone,
It has become apparent that I am quite inactive these days. I simply don't have the time to keep up with Wikipedia as much as I would like. The every-so-few-weeks needing attention to keep my bot stuff up and live on WMF Labs is something I just can't work with anymore. I will help one or two experienced bot members reset up the code so that my bots can run again. I will absolutely maintain code as needed. Again I just need someone to run them. Thank you in advance. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 01:37, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
Hi, you archived Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/LudoVicar earlier today after additional socks were blocked to the ones identified in the original SPI in January. Given Atama's comment here and comment by Yunshui (the original blocking admin in January) here, is there any scope for bringing together the LudoVicar SPI with the earlier 2009 Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/jk1944 to which reference is made in the LudoVicar SPI? I think they are all the one sock farm. Is this something you would consider or would need further evidence? DeCausa ( talk) 19:44, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Sorry to see that you're semi-retiring. I hope you stay around. Your good work is appreciated! Pine ✉ 19:06, 5 May 2014 (UTC) |
You semi-protected the article while pending changes was still in place. Could you remove one of the protections? I agree that the page should be protected, as it's a highly visible and sensitive issue, but semi protecting it negates the need for pending changes, and vice versa. Thanks.

Trying to settle into a new routine where I am on Wiki on a reliable basis, at least one hour per day. Renewing my access would be much appreciated, and in a few weeks when I get my game back, maybe I can ditch the old timer training wheels and get back to Account Creation at the speed and thoroughness I used to.
It's good to be back. I'm sorry to see you might not be around as much! You will be missed dearly by many, including me.
Cheers! - TIM( Contact)/( Contribs) 07:24, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
Hey DQ,
I see that you archived this SPI, but it actually needs to be moved to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Aldota/Archive as this is the master.-- Jezebel'sPonyo bons mots 15:51, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
Hello there, a proposal regarding pre-adminship review has been raised at Village pump by Anna Frodesiak. Your comments here is very much appreciated. Many thanks. Jim Carter through MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 06:46, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
Hello, I came here while looking for checkuser assistance. Seeing you're no longer a checkuser, I've removed the checkuser topicon from your userpage; of course I don't like editing your userpage, but I don't want people to find you through Category:Wikipedia checkusers and end up confused. Nyttend ( talk) 14:07, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi, you've closed the Jagged_85 sock puppet case without action because the IPs are "block stale". I've not come across that expression; what does it mean, please? -- Merlinme ( talk) 10:42, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
DQ, I was going to clerk this SPI but got hopelessly lost as to different masters. I understood your CU results but in looking at some of the tags already present on some accounts, as well as looking at the archives of this SPI, I ended up doing nothing. If you want to enlighten me, fine. If that's too much trouble, I understand, and we can always hope that another clerk is better able to sort it out. Regards.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 17:23, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

I saw you denied my temporary protection request for those two articles on the basis that the IP vandal was blocked. I also noticed he was blocked and was thinking of withdrawing my request due to the possibility of him cooling of. However, this morning, the same user started reinserting unsourced info to the Ukraine conflict article again from a different IP address, which is similar to the already blocked one. I can only guess his IP address changes every day. EkoGraf ( talk) 11:40, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
