Kazakhstani IP and new account popping up to partially restore a previous sock edit on that page, with the usual swing towards highlighting Singapore and specifically the aim of saying companies are "Singaporean". Note edit summaries are unused or misleading with regards to this intent in both original sock and new sock edits, with edit summaries used to hide the desired change behind innocuous edits. See [1] [2] [3] for a similar examples, with this one also showing the deliberately innocuous edit summary. CMD ( talk) 01:46, 11 October 2021 (UTC) reply

Suspected sockpuppets


Another extended duck trying keeping quite low under the radar, in the Ekuftle ( talk · contribs) vein. The first edit was to Singaporean patriotic music, which had the day before been given that title by a previous sock (following another sock a couple of weeks earlier). Soon after they were on the Singapore Covid page, editing to put Singapore at the top of a ranking. A later edit to Forrest Li was to replace "Chinese-Singaporean" with just "Singaporean", similar to edits from other socks to Jet Li( [4] [5] [6]). An edit along the same theme was here, removing mention of Chinese origin of Singaporean athletes. A later edit to table tennis showed the classic insertion of Singapore under a minor tag.

Another area of obvious duckery is the Grab article, again the stomping ground of many former socks, where the typical removal of Malaysia and promotion of Singapore occurred. They then went on to reversion guard the article ( [7] [8]) in ways that further this POV, a behaviour previously seen on other articles (eg. Jajangmyeon [9] [10] [11] [12]). (Many of the IP edits on the Grab article also resemble this user, so they're probably using a named account to maintain IP edits, as the ShelteredCook ( talk · contribs) account was used for.) Linking to those Jajangmyeon edits to push Chinese influence on Korean food, Yuorvee similarly rved to maintain the assertion of Chinese influence on Korean clothes. I note here as well that they have returned to early use of Twinkle, a previously strong hallmark that was dropped for awhile but is back.

Other typical edits include this one, where a misleading edit summary and minor tag are used to insert various mentions of Singapore and gain a removal of a mention of Malaysia to boot, as well as removing "Southeast Asia" which is another classic hallmark (see mention in 02 August 2021 case for example). This edit removes mention of South Korea and Taiwan, again under usual misleading canned edit summary. On the Made in Taiwan page, they joined an edit war to restore the edits of the Incegnetty sock. On the Marina Bay Sands article, they made a large edit that restored much in spirit of previous sock edits (eg. removing/downplaying ownership by Las Vegas Sands, removing/downplaying reasons for delay in opening, removing mention of Crystal pavilion legal dispute, etc.). The account is also even being used to continue the war with the Awanama farm (see mentions of Awanama in archives). CMD ( talk) 04:50, 29 October 2021 (UTC) reply

The Ultraliezoku4 account is new and completely dedicated to putting a negative slant on South Korean topics, which is a favourite pasttime of this farm. This edit, which simply changes an "unlikely" to a "likely", is typical trolling vandalism which is NOTHERE by itself, and reminiscent of previous socks like this edit which changed "tightened" to "relaxed". The farm has shown previous interest in emphasising chaebols. This Ultra edit on the Korean Wave page removes a bunch of text (and in this case even references) under the canned "general fixes and trimming" edit summary, see similar in this edit focused on removing mentions of Korea with summary "c/e, trim unsourced", this edit which removed mention of Korean Wave under "further c/e, trim more OR/uncited", and this edit which both added to emphasise chaebols and removed sources which talk about the Korean Wave under edit summary "condense and trim excessive citations". Other edits all follow the similar theme of existing just to write with a certain slant on South Korea.

Palipali1994 is a more focused account, looking only at Incheon International Airport (which is in South Korea). Their main edit is made to remove positive information, and matches exactly in parts an edit on the same page by a previous sock. The clarification needed spanning of an entire paragraph has also been used by another recent sock, here. CMD ( talk) 03:47, 1 November 2021 (UTC) reply

    @ RoySmith: Not quite sure yet, haven't had time to revisit: There's something fishy about the SPI report Otterslort filed – that is, I think they might be edit-warring with themselves at [13] (Yuorvee is most likely INTSF, 114.152.95.167 is a type of proxy they've used before). Though checking them can't hurt either way; worst case scenario is that whoever does so gets to make a bunch of proxyblocks. -- Blablubbs ( talk) 17:26, 1 November 2021 (UTC) reply
    Well, I talked to my sales manager, and it turns out we're having an unadvertised special on CU today, so I was able to get you some checks at a good price. I looked at Ultraliezoku4 and Palipali1994 from today and Yuorvee and CrownTimothy from the archives. As Spicy guessed on 29 October 2021, there is some proxy use, but at least one of the accounts appears to be proxy-free. IP addresses are around the world, but mostly localized for each account. User agents are all very common ones. So, plus or minus how much faith you put in our proxy detection tools, I'd have to call all of those four  Inconclusive  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation on the available technical evidence.

Precocious user continuing the arguments of other socks. Their first edit was about a positive-sounding note on the US, not unique, but in line with previous anti-americanism. The next edits were to the Chai Vang article, including this one which added a See also (to an article previously edited by past socks), this See also was later restored by the Otterslort sock account. Most recently, they continued the campaign of yourvee against Robepang, through filing an AN/EW on the Milo Dinosaur page despite no previous interaction. They had also not edited the Milo Dinosaur page before, but previous socks had. The recent edit to prompt this was Robepang reverting this proxy IP, which is quite obviously INTSF as well with usual addition of Singapore and removal of Malaysia. They also engaged in such IP restoration by reverting back in this IP edit which both added a copyrighted image (INTSF socks have a long history of uploading copyrighted images with one account and adding them to en.wiki with another) and early links to [[National Stadium, Singapore|National Stadium]] and [[Jalan Besar Stadium]], two pages with extensive editing from previous socks. The account also shows the usual twinkle reversion behaviour (see yuorvee and otterslort). CMD ( talk) 06:07, 7 November 2021 (UTC) reply

Another account created to push weird country vendettas, like the Ultraliezoku account. Opened with this edit on the topic of Pinoy Baiting with typical misleading summary. The edit also had the usual removing of maintenance templates on topics they like, the addition of a bunch of see alsos, and some other tells. The second edit of the account was to create the talkpage of this article, which means little on its own but is noticeable as INTSF really likes creating talkpages (most are deleted, but some still hanging around from various accounts include [20] [21] [22]).

A few weeks after this, the account reactivated to do a series of rapid edits that were just enough to get autoconfirmed, in order to create Malaysia and the apartheid analogy. Keen observers will notice the classic INTSF trait of the sources having little to do with the text at hand, despite superficial similarities (look no further than the first paragraph of the lead and the first paragraph of the body). The sidebar is one previously edited by another sock, and the See alsos include articles variously targeted by previous socks around the same time period (such as this proxy (in addition to another recent one-off acount) and this edit (which you may note also has the template removal and see also additions including White Supremacy, which was used on the created page)) CMD ( talk) 15:16, 8 December 2021 (UTC) reply

Recent account in the usual areas. First day of activity includes this one with the usual canned and misleading edit summary, with the usual distaste for the term "Southeast Asia" where possible and appending it to "East Asia" where possible (see 29 October 2021 for similar). Even adds a small unsourced paragraph on Singapore! That day also saw an edit to an article on racist terms (a standard topic, like here) which hid edits behind a revert (and the page was previously edited by the same editor). The latest edit was to make multiple links to Income inequality in South Korea, which is one of the recent fork attempts for the case discussed on 17 December 2021.

  • I wasn't aware that on Squid Game, the article which was previously linked was just a redirect in itself. The page was not created by me but by "Jarble" on 17 December. It briefly became a standalone article a few days later, which was assumed by me as being a different article when I viewed it.

No opinion on Accrmecru. Shunwound is obviously linked to some other accounts from that time ( [23] [24]), but unsure if it's this user.

FiveSevenXE however is this farm, and was one of the harassment accounts previously reported on 08 May 2021 that was not blocked. I added Surestam above, who has also reactivated.

@ Dreamy Jazz and RoySmith: Usual technical finding given proxying, but while they may be technically unrelated, both FiveSevenXE and Surestam are not unrelated to this case. As with other accounts from the early May period, they were created to harass me (and indeed in this case these two both made the exact same edit, with Surestam making far more as well). The sleeper account activation is not a new pattern (and even activating accounts previously left unblocked here is not new). The FiveSevenXE account has already used its autoconfirmed status to begin harassing Dosafrog. CMD ( talk) 21:13, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Chipmunkdavis I should clarify. In a CU context, "unrelated" is shorthand for "no overlap of the technical data, i.e. IP addresses and browser user agent strings". Even when it's not explicitly stated, there's always an implicit assumption that the CU data could be misleading or just plain wrong, and behavioral evidence needs to be considered. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:45, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Thanks Roy, I was thrown off by the full "Unrelated to this case", amid mild frustration that these weren't blocked upon the first SPI leaving them to resume harassment. If unrelated is just about the CU data, then that's expected for this case. CMD ( talk) 08:16, 8 January 2022 (UTC) reply

All of these accounts are using the same (admittedly common) device on one single static IP, which does not appear to be a proxy. These are the only accounts to have edited on this IP within the retention window, and as far as I can tell none have ever edited from a different connection, although I did not check them all. Many of these exhibit behaviours described on the LTA page, and their common geographical interests cannot be explained by the IP's location. Others are straight vandal accounts, some of which have already been blocked. If proxy geolocation is to be believed then these accounts are editing from a different continent from the proxies identified below, but that's still an inconclusive result.  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation.

Obvious duck Razali Osman account first edited in November 2021. The second edit (aside from creating user and talkpage) was to create an SPI, something this user has done before. The next edit was to restore an edit from a quackers proxy IP with a typical canned edit summary. Later edits are all the usual guff. The usual fake revert edit summary to hide changes, restoring IPs, returning to well trodden ground, removing Malaysia from things, supporting more quack IPs, "East and Southeast Asia" is back, etc. etc.

Usual precocious duck. First edit was to blank a section about Taiwan, second edit used a lie in an edit summary to get a Singapore picture in (the picture is of one of the building articles this user likes, and has edited the page of) while also removing mention of Taiwan, and other edits are used to remove perceived negatives about Singapore. As is common, large twinkle use is used to hide these edits among other contibutions ( most recent example). Not requesting a CU, but sometimes they find sleepers so up to CU discretion.

Account created last year and did some of the usual reverting IPs here and there ( by just scrolling through recent changes apparently) and reached autoconfirmed. First real edit was to add stuff about Singapore to Genshin Impact, which for the record is a topic/article previous socks have gone through before. Also used the autoconfirmed to create Economic disparity in South Korea, which is a recreation of Wealth inequality in South Korea which was an attempt to fork off sock edits to Economic inequality in South Korea.

Peter Hannick attempted to edit Racism in Canada to increase the prominence of "Maplewashing". A topic which was formerly it's own article. That former article was written and maintained by Telsho, a sock of Ineedtostopforegetting. See user history [37]

Peter Hannick regurgitated similar edits that were made by anonymous IP Addresses from Asia. First in December and then in May (the December edits occured right after "Maplewashing" was merged into "Racism in Canada") One edit from December: [38]. Edit from May [39]. First edit from Peter Hannick on topic, restoring edit from May [40]

Peter Hannick had a very short edit history with no history of prior engagement on topic when he made these edits.

Also note that Ineedtostopforegetting and it's socks appear to be based in Eastern Asia and have a history of editing articles relating to Asian topics. Both of the aforementioned IP's that Peter Hannick supported were from Asia.

Another extended duck trying keeping quite low under the radar, in the Ekuftle ( talk · contribs) vein. The first edit was to Singaporean patriotic music, which had the day before been given that title by a previous sock (following another sock a couple of weeks earlier). Soon after they were on the Singapore Covid page, editing to put Singapore at the top of a ranking. A later edit to Forrest Li was to replace "Chinese-Singaporean" with just "Singaporean", similar to edits from other socks to Jet Li( [4] [5] [6]). An edit along the same theme was here, removing mention of Chinese origin of Singaporean athletes. A later edit to table tennis showed the classic insertion of Singapore under a minor tag.

Another area of obvious duckery is the Grab article, again the stomping ground of many former socks, where the typical removal of Malaysia and promotion of Singapore occurred. They then went on to reversion guard the article ( [7] [8]) in ways that further this POV, a behaviour previously seen on other articles (eg. Jajangmyeon [9] [10] [11] [12]). (Many of the IP edits on the Grab article also resemble this user, so they're probably using a named account to maintain IP edits, as the ShelteredCook ( talk · contribs) account was used for.) Linking to those Jajangmyeon edits to push Chinese influence on Korean food, Yuorvee similarly rved to maintain the assertion of Chinese influence on Korean clothes. I note here as well that they have returned to early use of Twinkle, a previously strong hallmark that was dropped for awhile but is back.

Other typical edits include this one, where a misleading edit summary and minor tag are used to insert various mentions of Singapore and gain a removal of a mention of Malaysia to boot, as well as removing "Southeast Asia" which is another classic hallmark (see mention in 02 August 2021 case for example). This edit removes mention of South Korea and Taiwan, again under usual misleading canned edit summary. On the Made in Taiwan page, they joined an edit war to restore the edits of the Incegnetty sock. On the Marina Bay Sands article, they made a large edit that restored much in spirit of previous sock edits (eg. removing/downplaying ownership by Las Vegas Sands, removing/downplaying reasons for delay in opening, removing mention of Crystal pavilion legal dispute, etc.). The account is also even being used to continue the war with the Awanama farm (see mentions of Awanama in archives). CMD ( talk) 04:50, 29 October 2021 (UTC) reply

The Ultraliezoku4 account is new and completely dedicated to putting a negative slant on South Korean topics, which is a favourite pasttime of this farm. This edit, which simply changes an "unlikely" to a "likely", is typical trolling vandalism which is NOTHERE by itself, and reminiscent of previous socks like this edit which changed "tightened" to "relaxed". The farm has shown previous interest in emphasising chaebols. This Ultra edit on the Korean Wave page removes a bunch of text (and in this case even references) under the canned "general fixes and trimming" edit summary, see similar in this edit focused on removing mentions of Korea with summary "c/e, trim unsourced", this edit which removed mention of Korean Wave under "further c/e, trim more OR/uncited", and this edit which both added to emphasise chaebols and removed sources which talk about the Korean Wave under edit summary "condense and trim excessive citations". Other edits all follow the similar theme of existing just to write with a certain slant on South Korea.

Palipali1994 is a more focused account, looking only at Incheon International Airport (which is in South Korea). Their main edit is made to remove positive information, and matches exactly in parts an edit on the same page by a previous sock. The clarification needed spanning of an entire paragraph has also been used by another recent sock, here. CMD ( talk) 03:47, 1 November 2021 (UTC) reply

    Well, I talked to my sales manager, and it turns out we're having an unadvertised special on CU today, so I was able to get you some checks at a good price. I looked at Ultraliezoku4 and Palipali1994 from today and Yuorvee and CrownTimothy from the archives. As Spicy guessed on 29 October 2021, there is some proxy use, but at least one of the accounts appears to be proxy-free. IP addresses are around the world, but mostly localized for each account.

Precocious user continuing the arguments of other socks. Their first edit was about a positive-sounding note on the US, not unique, but in line with previous anti-americanism. The next edits were to the Chai Vang article, including this one which added a See also (to an article previously edited by past socks), this See also was later restored by the Otterslort sock account. Most recently, they continued the campaign of yourvee against Robepang, through filing an AN/EW on the Milo Dinosaur page despite no previous interaction. They had also not edited the Milo Dinosaur page before, but previous socks had. The recent edit to prompt this was Robepang reverting this proxy IP, which is quite obviously INTSF as well with usual addition of Singapore and removal of Malaysia. They also engaged in such IP restoration by reverting back in this IP edit which both added a copyrighted image (INTSF socks have a long history of uploading copyrighted images with one account and adding them to en.wiki with another) and early links to [[National Stadium, Singapore|National Stadium]] and [[Jalan Besar Stadium]], two pages with extensive editing from previous socks. The account also shows the usual twinkle reversion behaviour (see yuorvee and otterslort). CMD ( talk) 06:07, 7 November 2021 (UTC) reply

After that IpohLang and PeterRang suddenly show support to Lantan RM's edit in [15]] and [16]. Both accounts also showed support of known INTSF sock puppets before in [17] - kaya toast, [18] - Milo dinosaur and [19] - Kopi (drink). Robepang ( talk) 23:35, 25 November 2021 (UTC) reply

All three accounts have hallmark INTSF traits. Lantan RM is the classic one-off with the usual lying and focus, the other two are continuing old feuds. On a related note, can an admin please revdel this summary. (Part of an IP group that is becoming involved in this, including recently on my talkpage, possibly one of the feuds or possibly a deliberate bad hand.)

Another account created to push weird country vendettas, like the Ultraliezoku account. Opened with this edit on the topic of Pinoy Baiting with typical misleading summary. The edit also had the usual removing of maintenance templates on topics they like, the addition of a bunch of see alsos, and some other tells. The second edit of the account was to create the talkpage of this article, which means little on its own but is noticeable as INTSF really likes creating talkpages (most are deleted, but some still hanging around from various accounts include [20] [21] [22]).

A few weeks after this, the account reactivated to do a series of rapid edits that were just enough to get autoconfirmed, in order to create Malaysia and the apartheid analogy. Keen observers will notice the classic INTSF trait of the sources having little to do with the text at hand, despite superficial similarities (look no further than the first paragraph of the lead and the first paragraph of the body). The sidebar is one previously edited by another sock, and the See alsos include articles variously targeted by previous socks around the same time period (such as this proxy (in addition to another recent one-off acount) and this edit (which you may note also has the template removal and see also additions including White Supremacy, which was used on the created page)) CMD ( talk) 15:16, 8 December 2021 (UTC) reply

Another obvious cluster of single-focus accounts in the usual South Korean stomping grounds. Usual pattern of terrible edit summaries, uploading copyrighted photos, and getting into edit wars.

Recent account in the usual areas. First day of activity includes this one with the usual canned and misleading edit summary, with the usual distaste for the term "Southeast Asia" where possible and appending it to "East Asia" where possible (see 29 October 2021 for similar). Even adds a small unsourced paragraph on Singapore! That day also saw an edit to an article on racist terms (a standard topic, like here) which hid edits behind a revert (and the page was previously edited by the same editor). The latest edit was to make multiple links to Income inequality in South Korea, which is one of the recent fork attempts for the case discussed on 17 December 2021.

  • I wasn't aware that on Squid Game, the article which was previously linked was just a redirect in itself. The page was not created by me but by "Jarble" on 17 December. It briefly became a standalone article a few days later, which was assumed by me as being a different article when I viewed it. You were right to revert me there but I'm not sure as to how that connects me as being a sock.

No opinion on Accrmecru. Shunwound is obviously linked to some other accounts from that time ( [23] [24]), but unsure if it's this user.

FiveSevenXE however is this farm, and was one of the harassment accounts previously reported on 08 May 2021 that was not blocked. I added Surestam above, who has also reactivated. Probably a good idea to finally block the lot. Pinging Blablubbs who was involved in that report. CMD ( talk) 15:11, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Dreamy Jazz and RoySmith: Usual technical finding given proxying, but while they may be technically unrelated, both FiveSevenXE and Surestam are not unrelated to this case. As with other accounts from the early May period, they were created to harass me (and indeed in this case these two both made the exact same edit, with Surestam making far more as well). The sleeper account activation is not a new pattern (and even activating accounts previously left unblocked here is not new). The FiveSevenXE account has already used its autoconfirmed status to begin harassing Dosafrog. CMD ( talk) 21:13, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Chipmunkdavis I should clarify. In a CU context, "unrelated" is shorthand for "no overlap of the technical data, i.e. IP addresses and browser user agent strings". Even when it's not explicitly stated, there's always an implicit assumption that the CU data could be misleading or just plain wrong, and behavioral evidence needs to be considered. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:45, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Thanks Roy, I was thrown off by the full "Unrelated to this case", amid mild frustration that these weren't blocked upon the first SPI leaving them to resume harassment. If unrelated is just about the CU data, then that's expected for this case. CMD ( talk) 08:16, 8 January 2022 (UTC) reply

If these are sock they are probably part of the 'Taiwan group' that was in the previous request. I don't think they're INTSF at the moment, but they are a farm, and one which I think would be more conducive to CU training than INTSF socks.

Bad faith accusation with no evidence from the user above. There is not a single overlap between my edit histories that of the sockmaster. Note that this user has defended INTSF's POV edits that were ultimately reverted for WP:BLOCKEVASION in the same article and has violated WP:CIV by not contributing to discussions but making uncivil comments like "bashing [your] head."

  • I can't say what's going on here but all of these throwaway accounts are  Technically indistinguishable:
Editor Interaction Analyser (Slater Downer, Elknola Lee Ning Guangyao, Zelensky911, Liana Salgado, Petraeus Henderson, Jessica Thomas Ayato, Kern Mair, Auranori Himegimi, Joseph J. Fitzpatrick, Georgius Rogers, B0nk-fraud53, Noriaki Nora, Elisa Elvin Hu, Lee Ailieism Lillian, Auranori Himegimi, Deva Dove, Psx13, Julie Pearl Zhu, Liming Michiaki, THAAD American dad)
All of these accounts are using the same (admittedly common) device on one single static IP, which does not appear to be a proxy. These are the only accounts to have edited on this IP within the retention window, and as far as I can tell none have ever edited from a different connection, although I did not check them all. Many of these exhibit behaviours described on the LTA page, and their common geographical interests cannot be explained by the IP's location. Others are straight vandal accounts, some of which have already been blocked. If proxy geolocation is to be believed then these accounts are editing from a different continent from the proxies identified below, but that's still an inconclusive result.  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation.

Obvious duck Razali Osman account first edited in November 2021. The second edit (aside from creating user and talkpage) was to create an SPI, something this user has done before. The next edit was to restore an edit from a quackers proxy IP with a typical canned edit summary. Later edits are all the usual guff. The usual fake revert edit summary to hide changes, restoring IPs, returning to well trodden ground, removing Malaysia from things, supporting more quack IPs, "East and Southeast Asia" is back, etc. etc.

Usual precocious duck. First edit was to blank a section about Taiwan, second edit used a lie in an edit summary to get a Singapore picture in (the picture is of one of the building articles this user likes, and has edited the page of) while also removing mention of Taiwan, and other edits are used to remove perceived negatives about Singapore. As is common, large twinkle use is used to hide these edits among other contibutions ( most recent example). Not requesting a CU, but sometimes they find sleepers so up to CU discretion.

Account created last year and did some of the usual reverting IPs here and there ( by just scrolling through recent changes apparently) and reached autoconfirmed. First real edit was to add stuff about Singapore to Genshin Impact, which for the record is a topic/article previous socks have gone through before. Also used the autoconfirmed to create Economic disparity in South Korea, which is a recreation of Wealth inequality in South Korea which was an attempt to fork off sock edits to Economic inequality in South Korea.

Peter Hannick attempted to edit Racism in Canada to increase the prominence of "Maplewashing". A topic which was formerly it's own article. That former article was written and maintained by Telsho, a sock of Ineedtostopforegetting. See user history [37]

Peter Hannick regurgitated similar edits that were made by anonymous IP Addresses from Asia. First in December and then in May (the December edits occured right after "Maplewashing" was merged into "Racism in Canada") One edit from December: [38]. Edit from May [39]. First edit from Peter Hannick on topic, restoring edit from May [40]

Peter Hannick had a very short edit history with no history of prior engagement on topic when he made these edits.

Also note that Ineedtostopforegetting and it's socks appear to be based in Eastern Asia and have a history of editing articles relating to Asian topics. Both of the aforementioned IP's that Peter Hannick supported were from Asia. Additionally Peter Hannick himself has delved into edits relating to Asia in his very short edit history, see here [41], [42], and [43]. CASalt ( talk) 21:26, 24 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  •  Additional information needed - @ Horse Eye's Back: In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
  1. At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
  2. At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
