Suspected sockpuppets


Beyond the obvious naming pattern, the accounts share an interest in NASCAR races and American radio stations (compare for example [1] and [2] or [3] for the latter). There's also commons:Category:Sockpuppets of Gameguest38 which lists another few accounts; on Commons there have been copyright issues when non-free files were uploaded to the Commons and then added to the respective Wikipedia articles. I'll block those Gameguest accounts that are obviously linked by their contributions, but given the Commons-listed sock accounts that didn't follow the naming pattern and the use of throwaway accounts going back several years, a CheckUser may want to check whether there's more - in particular, accounts that were created but haven't edited yet.

As a new account in 2015, this user managed to find and edit userspace drafts of more than one of the Gameguest numbered accounts. Was previously stale but can possibly be checked against the 23 May 2017 investigation. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 14:09, 23 August 2017 (UTC) reply
