Suspected sockpuppets


This sockfarm edits since 2012, closely aligned with Allen Shofe and his clients' interests. A small subset was blocked in 2013 by AmandaNP as part of the ExtraBart SPI (some additional accounts in that SPI not listed here, maybe sharing proxies... I couldn't find a behavioral link to all of them), and in 2014 by Ponyo (see Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of RepordRider, RepordRider group from now on). To ease evidence reading, I broke down most of the accounts into subgroups.

Beyond topical overlap, there's a quite characteristic edit summary style shared over long periods of time. Tables of edit summary pattern overlaps and corresponding diffs are presented below. Some accounts share some quirks visible in sandboxes and user pages too. Timecards are quite consistent as far as I've checked.

There is also an old account that, despite the obvious user name similarity, has not enough (undeleted?) edits to connect it very well: Amshofe ( talk + · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser( log) · investigate · cuwiki).

Client overlap

The following table is a summary of articles edited by this sockfarm and that bear some relation to Allen Shofe clients ( [1]).

Azerbaijan group
  • This group is specialized in Azerbaijan.
  • Frost joyce and GularVahabov777 are CU-confirmed to each other on ExtraBart SPI.
  • Marilynhblythe was later CU-confirmed to RepordRider, see Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of RepordRider. That account is part of the Azerbaijan subgroup, but it's not included here.

Thanks TNT! Adding one more:

Full name with space like some of the socks, including the confirmed. Same focus on Emergent BioSolutions (see recent history [2]) and Opioid epidemic in the United States. Consistent time card ( [3] [4]). MarioGom ( talk) 21:51, 6 August 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Thanks for the heads up RoySmith. I was very confident about my report, and the fact that two accounts came up in CU checks, and these accounts are a fairly good behavioral match too, just reinforced it. Obviously I have no idea about the details of the CU data involved... MarioGom ( talk) 16:36, 27 August 2021 (UTC) reply

Just as a personal tip, I'd recommend either turning off your proxy or, on the off-chance that it isn't one, checking your device.

Suspected sockpuppets


Created next month after last round of blocks. Consistent timecard. Very similar edit summary style (compare to Sal2017, for example). After some warm up period of gnoming, created Safeguarding Therapeutics Act, which is within a very specific area of interest of this sockfarm (US legislation of interest to pharma lobbyists). I'm going to avoid an extremely verbose report upfront like last time, but feel free to request more notes. MarioGom ( talk) 16:05, 6 November 2021 (UTC) reply

@ MarioGom @ Spicy Frost joyce is a confirmed sock of ExtraBart. Is there some reason this wasn't opened under Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ExtraBart? -- RoySmith (talk) 13:24, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
RoySmith: Given the complexity of the initial report, and the overlap of accounts in 3 previously blocked sockfarms (ExtraBart, RepordRider, as well as a possibly spurious result of Stephenthrompson in Lesbianadvocate Classyklowngrasper), I decided to make a standalone report and let clerks decide if a merge was due, and where to merge it to. MarioGom ( talk) 13:54, 8 November 2021 (UTC) (amended comment with respect to Lesbianadvocate and Classyklowngrasper, see below) reply
Help me out here. I see that RepordRider is blocked, but can't find where it says who they're a sock of. I also don't see how Stephenthrompson is connected in any way to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Lesbianadvocate. On the other hand, I'm not sure it really matters. Socks get put in the wrong case all the time, but this case seems particularly convoluted :-) -- RoySmith (talk) 14:43, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
The RepordRider group was a series of checkuser blocks without SPI. See Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of RepordRider. Stephenthrompson is tagged as confirmed Louislover1969 and suspect to Classyklowngrasper. I think Classyklowngrasper is related to Lesbianadvocate, that's why I (incorrectly) remembered that Stephenthrompson was in Lesbianadvocate. If I recall correctly, in the Frost joyce SPI I only included accounts I could link behaviorally in some way, and left out some technical links from other SPIs. I can help trying to figure out the exact historic relations between the groups, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. MarioGom ( talk) 15:17, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
I'm sure it's not worth the effort. It's terribly convoluted, undoubtedly contains errors, and is mostly ancient history anyway. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:10, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
Yeah, I concur with what MarioGom is saying. I looked into the links to other sockfarms before archiving but decided that since the cases are very old and merging them wouldn't make any difference w.r.t. the outcome of this case, it wouldn't be a worthwhile use of time to engage in sock archaeology. I realize now that I missed something, though - the recent CU blocked accounts are tagged as confirmed to Frost joyce, but that account is long stale and I see no indication that there is a technical link between them and the later group. Maybe TheresNoTime can clarify if these should be retagged? Spicy ( talk) 23:41, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
104.174.64.50 ( talk · contribs · WHOIS) is likely a sock, considering that they just vandalized this page. Invalid OS talk 15:10, 9 November 2021 (UTC) reply

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

This case is being reviewed by Spicy as part of the clerk training process. Please allow him to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on his talk page or on this page if more appropriate.

  •  Clerk endorsed - I've spent some time looking at this account and the ones in the previous filing, and I agree there are many behavioural similarities, even beyond what is listed in the filing (would rather not give too many details, but can elaborate privately if necessary). I'm aware that the previous accounts are stale. However, I'm endorsing for a sleeper check because it was effective last time, and for comparison to log data if feasible. Thanks, Spicy ( talk) 08:47, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Stanj1992 is  Possible based on the available technical data, but that's tenuous. All of the data I compared to was inferred by examining the logs of past investigations (which themselves had questions about correct identifications), and it's wide ranges with common user agents. If that doesn't spell  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation, I don't know what does. I've left some notes on cuwiki so at least we'll have more to go on the next time. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:58, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Pink clock Awaiting administrative action - "possible" is good enough for me; the behaviour is a match. Please indef the sock. Thanks, Spicy ( talk) 23:49, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  •  Blocked and tagged.  IP blocked too. -- Blablubbs ( talk) 15:56, 9 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Looks like we've done everything that needs to be done, closing. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:13, 9 November 2021 (UTC) reply

Suspected sockpuppets


This sockfarm edits since 2012, closely aligned with Allen Shofe and his clients' interests. A small subset was blocked in 2013 by AmandaNP as part of the ExtraBart SPI (some additional accounts in that SPI not listed here, maybe sharing proxies... I couldn't find a behavioral link to all of them), and in 2014 by Ponyo (see Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of RepordRider, RepordRider group from now on). To ease evidence reading, I broke down most of the accounts into subgroups.

Beyond topical overlap, there's a quite characteristic edit summary style shared over long periods of time. Tables of edit summary pattern overlaps and corresponding diffs are presented below. Some accounts share some quirks visible in sandboxes and user pages too. Timecards are quite consistent as far as I've checked.

There is also an old account that, despite the obvious user name similarity, has not enough (undeleted?) edits to connect it very well: Amshofe ( talk + · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser( log) · investigate · cuwiki).

Azerbaijan group
  • This group is specialized in Azerbaijan.
  • Frost joyce and GularVahabov777 are CU-confirmed to each other on ExtraBart SPI.
  • Marilynhblythe was later CU-confirmed to RepordRider, see Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of RepordRider. That account is part of the Azerbaijan subgroup, but it's not included here.

  • Signup close to Michael Powerhouse and Xavier Lehtinen.
  • Overlap on various topics, including Emergent BioSolution, EB-5 programs, opioids and Community Choice Aggregation.
  • Edit style summary particularly similar to late socks (e.g. post 2015, Letita Bodicia).

Thanks TNT! Adding one more:

Full name with space like some of the socks, including the confirmed. Same focus on Emergent BioSolutions (see recent history [2]) and Opioid epidemic in the United States. Consistent time card ( [3] [4]). MarioGom ( talk) 21:51, 6 August 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Thanks for the heads up RoySmith. I was very confident about my report, and the fact that two accounts came up in CU checks, and these accounts are a fairly good behavioral match too, just reinforced it. Obviously I have no idea about the details of the CU data involved... MarioGom ( talk) 16:36, 27 August 2021 (UTC) reply

  •  Clerk note: IP, please log in to edit (see WP:LOUTSOCK), and don't make implicit threats. You're free to bring up a complaint with the WMF, but I doubt that will go far. Just as a personal tip, I'd recommend either turning off your proxy or, on the off-chance that it isn't one, checking your device. I'm seeing some concerning spam flags there. -- Blablubbs| talk 17:50, 30 June 2021 (UTC) reply

Suspected sockpuppets


Created next month after last round of blocks. Consistent timecard. Very similar edit summary style (compare to Sal2017, for example). After some warm up period of gnoming, created Safeguarding Therapeutics Act, which is within a very specific area of interest of this sockfarm (US legislation of interest to pharma lobbyists). I'm going to avoid an extremely verbose report upfront like last time, but feel free to request more notes. MarioGom ( talk) 16:05, 6 November 2021 (UTC) reply

@ MarioGom @ Spicy Frost joyce is a confirmed sock of ExtraBart. Is there some reason this wasn't opened under Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ExtraBart? -- RoySmith (talk) 13:24, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
RoySmith: Given the complexity of the initial report, and the overlap of accounts in 3 previously blocked sockfarms (ExtraBart, RepordRider, as well as a possibly spurious result of Stephenthrompson in Lesbianadvocate Classyklowngrasper), I decided to make a standalone report and let clerks decide if a merge was due, and where to merge it to. MarioGom ( talk) 13:54, 8 November 2021 (UTC) (amended comment with respect to Lesbianadvocate and Classyklowngrasper, see below) reply
Help me out here. I see that RepordRider is blocked, but can't find where it says who they're a sock of. I also don't see how Stephenthrompson is connected in any way to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Lesbianadvocate. On the other hand, I'm not sure it really matters. Socks get put in the wrong case all the time, but this case seems particularly convoluted :-) -- RoySmith (talk) 14:43, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
The RepordRider group was a series of checkuser blocks without SPI. See Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of RepordRider. Stephenthrompson is tagged as confirmed Louislover1969 and suspect to Classyklowngrasper. I think Classyklowngrasper is related to Lesbianadvocate, that's why I (incorrectly) remembered that Stephenthrompson was in Lesbianadvocate. If I recall correctly, in the Frost joyce SPI I only included accounts I could link behaviorally in some way, and left out some technical links from other SPIs. I can help trying to figure out the exact historic relations between the groups, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. MarioGom ( talk) 15:17, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
I'm sure it's not worth the effort. It's terribly convoluted, undoubtedly contains errors, and is mostly ancient history anyway. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:10, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
Yeah, I concur with what MarioGom is saying. I looked into the links to other sockfarms before archiving but decided that since the cases are very old and merging them wouldn't make any difference w.r.t. the outcome of this case, it wouldn't be a worthwhile use of time to engage in sock archaeology. I realize now that I missed something, though - the recent CU blocked accounts are tagged as confirmed to Frost joyce, but that account is long stale and I see no indication that there is a technical link between them and the later group. Maybe TheresNoTime can clarify if these should be retagged? Spicy ( talk) 23:41, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
104.174.64.50 ( talk · contribs · WHOIS) is likely a sock, considering that they just vandalized this page. Invalid OS talk 15:10, 9 November 2021 (UTC) reply

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

This case is being reviewed by Spicy as part of the clerk training process. Please allow him to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on his talk page or on this page if more appropriate.

  •  Clerk endorsed - I've spent some time looking at this account and the ones in the previous filing, and I agree there are many behavioural similarities, even beyond what is listed in the filing (would rather not give too many details, but can elaborate privately if necessary). I'm aware that the previous accounts are stale. However, I'm endorsing for a sleeper check because it was effective last time, and for comparison to log data if feasible. Thanks, Spicy ( talk) 08:47, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Stanj1992 is  Possible based on the available technical data, but that's tenuous. All of the data I compared to was inferred by examining the logs of past investigations (which themselves had questions about correct identifications), and it's wide ranges with common user agents. If that doesn't spell  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation, I don't know what does. I've left some notes on cuwiki so at least we'll have more to go on the next time. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:58, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Pink clock Awaiting administrative action - "possible" is good enough for me; the behaviour is a match. Please indef the sock. Thanks, Spicy ( talk) 23:49, 8 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  •  Blocked and tagged.  IP blocked too. -- Blablubbs ( talk) 15:56, 9 November 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Looks like we've done everything that needs to be done, closing. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:13, 9 November 2021 (UTC) reply
