Apart from the pywikipedia framework, and the Python source codes on GitHub, does the UAA task of DQB require anything else? -- Ankit Maity « T § C» 04:36, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi DQ!
Regarding this case: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/E4024...I just want to check whether you had stored the CU logs. Thanks. Étienne Dolet ( talk) 20:18, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

Could you chime in at WP:AN#hack in progress? please? Someone's afraid that his account's been hacked; he's asking for self-CU to see if the account's been accessed by anyone other than him. Nyttend ( talk) 17:50, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
Here's a more routine CU request. User:Biblioworm (the userpage itself) was vandalised by a lot of new accounts (explanation at WP:AN#Userpage being vandalized continually) before someone semiprotected it. Could you check to see if the vandal created any other accounts? Nyttend ( talk) 16:47, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for all your efforts with ACC and SPI. You're a great asset to the community and I want you to know that your tireless work has not gone unnoticed. Mike V • Talk 20:33, 12 November 2014 (UTC) |
Hi. Can you offer your opinion in this consensus discussion? I know you did this last month, but it wasn't a formal consensus discussion, but now it is. Thanks. Nightscream ( talk) 00:30, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Delta, I was doing some poking around at Mickey's House of Villains, an article that was being manipulated by recently exposed sock Soy Hermoso. I happened upon yet another account similar to Benjalindo, Benjalocolito, namely Benja the Beauty Boy. Turns out Soy Hermoso and the rest may be socks of Bambifan101. Whatcha think? Disney Villains seems to be a hotbed of activity. The user tends to keep referring to himself and/or his beauty. Benja the beautiful (masculine), little crazy Benja, Benja the Beauty Boy, I am Beautiful. I've posted this stuff at the SPI too. Regards, Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 03:09, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
You might want to have a look at [28] in connection with the SPI [29]. I am not sure where should I mention this because I found the SPI case is already archived. BengaliHindu ( talk) 07:11, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
I've been seeing questionable activity over the past year on a Power Rangers related page. Would you mind taking a look?— Ryūlóng ( 琉竜) 03:18, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
I trust you mean that you would work to "alleviate" rather than "elevate" the e-mail backlog. :) Regards, Newyorkbrad ( talk) 15:44, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

King of Hearts has left an inquiry for you at UTRS (#12278 in the CU queue).-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 22:21, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
Regarding this, just wanted to remind you that you and I made it clear about a month ago that I was not using more than one name or making edits under an IP. I will very much appreciate it if you ran a quick CU on User:TheSawTooth (which was created less than a month ago whom I suspect being another puppet of User:Mar4d, editing from Brisbane, Australia, [32]) and User:Faizan (whom I suspect as being User:Faizannehal / User:Faizanalivarya, a resident of Karachi, Pakistan).-- Krzyhorse22 ( talk) 22:33, 21 November 2014 (UTC)
Although I'm not familiar with the master, I'm guessing that this is actually a sock of User:Mr Wiki Pro. Take a look at this edit by one of the new accounts, and there is also a confirmed Mr Wiki Pro sock with a similar user name: User:User Userz.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 16:51, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi, DeltaQuad! I saw that you reverted my change to the guide. I went ahead and put the proposed changes in my sandbox (you can read the proposed changes here). When you have time, can we you explain exactly what loopholes that my edit created so that I can revise them? I think that this section of the guide is unclear in some parts, and it's also missing some cases that I've run into after only being granted access to the tool a few days ago, which concerns me. I'd really like to make it much simpler for users to refer to. ~Oshwah~ (talk) (contribs) 22:52, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Delta, I was hoping to pick your brain as quickly as possible before filing an SPI report. I'm coming to you because I've bugged Ponyo a lot lately. :) Looking through the editor list from the List of Lego Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu episodes history, I'm coming across a lot of single purpose accounts and IPs that are adding unsourced future content to the article. It started with an observation of Danbob531, who at this article adds a very specific future season end date here. Lloyd TheGoldenNinja adds the same date here. Danbob again adds it here. A lot of the problematic content is removed by ConspicuousNinja who I can't help but notice is a freshly created account with a similar name, which is followed by another SPA Oooooooopooooooooopooooooojhffvnvccvv adding the March 22, 2015 date again. Who do I report? Everybody? And for full disclosure, I reported Danbob531 to AIV for disruptive behavior but my report was declined by Diannaa because she felt I should contact Danbob again, which I have attempted to do. It was while talking to her that I discovered this other bizarre behavior. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 04:20, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
Hey delta. I need some help regarding a CU... Can you please perform a check user and see if the following IP belongs to User:Faizan after which I will open an SPI (for evading block and sanctions and by logging out to make problematic edits on an article):
Any help will be appreciated. Saadkhan12345 ( talk) 07:40, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
