Suspected sockpuppets

So--what should I say. I ran into this while checking on User:Kohlinekys, whom I have NOT yet blocked. The CU log shows that this IP has been linked to this SPI before. I took this up with the CU list, and there seems to be agreement that these are socks--though what they were up to, we don't agree. A UPE farm was suspected, and that's what I thought first too, but now I am convinced it's one person who just makes a billion accounts to do a couple of edits in a few areas. Their hobby horses are international companies, trains, infboxes, and a few others. You'll see if you check em out. There are a few more accounts and one of them, User:Padcross, goes back to 2015 and there's a few that made an edit or two in 2018 and 2019, but I need to close this up for now.

Here's the other thing. I was dumb. I should have just hardblocked the IP, but I started blocking, and once you start you gotta continue. I am still going to put a hard block on the IP, BTW; blocking the accounts is of limited use since many of em are just disposables. I cannot give you a nicely-formatted list, since my fingers are about to fall of. Do with this what you like--or, if you can format this in a semi-automated way, go for it. They're all blocked. Now take a deep breath.

This sock has been disruptively editing for many years now. Would it be possible to revert all of the sock's edits as well? Bahnfrend ( talk) 03:55, 27 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • I've formatted the sock list. FWIW, I'm pretty sure that this is the same case as WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Custodi2 - same interest in trains, Australia/UK companies, link tweaks and of course the massive sockfarming. That case's archives had to be split because the number of sock templates was causing issues with transclusion limits - I'm not sure how to handle that if the cases are to be merged. Oh, and we decided not to tag these because it's simply too much work. I'll leave this open in case anyone else wants to chime in. Thanks, Spicy ( talk) 03:36, 26 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Sheeeeeeit well that figures. Thanks Spicy; I appreciate your help. And I agree. I just looked at some of the Custodi2 socks, and ran one of them, and it makes sense. Also, what the fuck is wrong with them? Drmies ( talk) 03:44, 26 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • One more thing: after looking at the contributions by User:Kohlinekys again, I am convinced that they are our guy--anyone who looks at the edit histories of accounts used more than once will see what I mean. I blocked them, and did not tag the account. Drmies ( talk) 20:37, 26 August 2022 (UTC) reply

These accounts are all  Confirmed to one another. They are operating out of an IP on the same range that the cases in the 26 August batch were using. Girth Summit (blether) 12:42, 27 September 2022 (UTC) reply

  • These accounts are  Confirmed to each other. Compared to previous accounts in this case, I would say they are  Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely) at best: same geolocation and ISP, but different range. However, the behaviour convinces me that these accounts belong to the same operator. The most obvious behavioural similarity is creating ridiculous numbers of socks. The accounts that have edits display similar interests and patterns of editing to previous accounts in this case, principally making page moves and unhelpful minor edits to articles involving UK/Australia transport, business and geography topics. Technical and behavioural evidence supports that WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Custodi2 is part of this case as well. Spicy ( talk) 19:46, 31 December 2023 (UTC) reply
  • I've blocked the accounts.  Clerk assistance requested: could a clerk please dual-tag these and merge Custodi2 into this case? Thanks, Spicy ( talk) 19:58, 31 December 2023 (UTC) reply
  • I've done the tagging for this batch (SPIhelper wouldn't let me the other day for whatever reason). Case merge still pending. Spicy ( talk) 01:46, 2 January 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Merge done. Closing. Spicy ( talk) 18:17, 21 January 2024 (UTC) reply
