Checkuser comments: All of the IP addresses that the master account and its socks have used, as well as the two IPs identified on this SPI, are highly dynamic and at least some of them are likely proxies. There is no reasonable prospect of qualitatively identifying any socks here, not that we would normally comment on IP addresses. A short block for the most recent IPs is all that can be done, and I've applied one-week blocks. Risker ( talk) 04:53, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Similar interest area, namely adding/removing height information and changing pictures in Bollywood actor/actress articles. this summary is very similar to this summary by original account. Obsession with Arjun Kapoor also continues in such experimental edits as this, which comprised much of the original account's contributions. And more obviously, this username is similar to the name of her previous sock. Krimuk|90 ( talk) 07:44, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

An obvious sock who doesn't seem to be tired of harassing me. -- Krimuk|90 ( talk) 01:24, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- Vanjagenije I have previously summarised Mridul Sharma's long term harassment towards me in this thread. Hope that's helpful. "Katrina Mukti D'Souza Kapoor" is a name Sharma has often referred to me as, I think because my username "Kri" and "Muk" are part of this name. Also, this user page that they created references my real name "Smarojit" (which was my username before I requested a change) and copies a format I previously used on my user page. If you also look at the page history of my previous username, an IP sock of Sharma is making those very same edits. -- Krimuk|90 ( talk) 02:02, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

This user constantly harasses Krimuk90. This to me is serious and the user has a history of setting up other accounts. I'm therefore requesting CheckUser to see if they have any sleeping accounts.

Gamer201 is an old account, created in 2008, but didn't make their first edit until 18 November 2015, editing only in their own userspace until 3 December, when they suddenly decided to remove material from an old talk page archive belonging to Krimuk90, the exact same material regarding Mriduls.sharma that has previously been removed by other socks (see archive history, Superman403 is a blocked Mriduls.sharma sock; as for Chander, see below). Among their very few edits outside their own user space are also a revert of an edit made by Krimuk90 (who Mriduls.sharma had multiple run-ins with), edits, including odd moves, of Boney Kapoor, an article edited by both Mriduls.sharma and multiple previous socks, and the edits that caught my eye, replacing the sock tag on User:Mriduls.sharma with a {{retired}} tag, and removing everything but that tag from User talk:Mriduls.sharma. Edits trying to hide the fact that Mriduls.sharma has been indeffed for socking that fit in with edits previously made by other socks (edits which include blocked sock Ranvirojha trying to move the user pages to a different name...).
When looking at the edits made by Gamer201 I found Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Chander, which fits in perfectly with this SPI and Gamer201's edits, including trying to remove the exact same material from Krimuk90's old talk page archive as Gamer201 did. Chander was indeffed in November 2015 (not long before Gamer201 started editing...), but made their last edit just short of three months ago, so there might still be a chance to compare Chander and Gamer201 technically, which is why I have requested a CU check. Considering the number of previous socks there might also be sleepers. Thomas.W talk 19:21, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
- @ Bbb23: Gamer201, Chander and Superman403 (blocked as a Mriduls.sharma sock by Ponyo in March 2015), plus a number of IPs, have all tried to remove the exact same material about Mriduls.sharma from a one-year-old user talkpage archive ( Gamer201, Superman403, Chander), material that isn't in any way degrading or insulting, unless being referred to as a "her" is seen as degrading. An archive there's no way to find by chance, which is why I see all of the accounts as connected to each other, as either sock-puppets or meat-puppets. Thomas.W talk 21:20, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

- As far as I know, all the accounts here are
Stale. I CU-blocked the last account in May 2015, which means the gap between the technical evidence supporting that block and Gamer201's technical evidence is six months. - Gamer201 is
Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely). They are using the same range of IPs, and at least one of the user agents is close to what they used in May 2015, taking into account the lapse of time. - Gamer201 is
Unrelated to Chander.--
Bbb23 (

20:59, 9 February 2016 (UTC) - Indeffing Gamer201 with tag. Chander actually makes the opposite edits to Gamer201 and Superman403 (he replaces instead of removes). That doesn't rule him out per se but it appears that he found that archive by
first reverting an IP and then backtracking to that IP's edit to the archive.

"Kumirk90" is an impostor of Krimuk90. Material.scientists is an obvious impostor of admin Materialscientist. Both accounts edited at Arjun Kapoor, which was also a hotbed of activity for a bunch of socks. I don't know who the actual master is, but given that two impostor accounts have sprung up in the last day or two, I'd like to get a CU to look into things. I've blocked both accounts, but have not tagged anyone. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 19:45, 8 November 2016 (UTC)
Addendum: just added Supsupermanser to the CU list. He popped up at Arjun Kapoor restoring content added by Kumirk, and he also intersects with Kumirk at Abhishek Bachchan and Vivek Oberoi. In all these cases, he was adding actor heights based on information at lightscamerabollywood.com. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 19:56, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

- Abhijit404, a CU confirmed sock has previously been an irritant to Renamed user henga2423 (formerly Krimuk90). In the archive, one of the socks was an impostor of Krimuk. Similarly, BoneyK has done some stuff in Renamed user's userspace.
- Account Cyphoidbombs is a pale imitation of yours truly. Again, an impostor account like the previous socks. Contininuing the Cyphoidbomb focus, BoneyK has attempted to harass me on my talk page and reverted a number of edits of mine.
Pretty ducky, and the accounts have been indeffed, but I'm filing this for completeness. I'm opening a CU request only because he's been rather prolific l'm curious if there are other accounts out there that need to be discovered. No idea what this guy's game plan is, and other than opening the SPI a few days ago, I don't know what other intersection I've had with this person. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 21:13, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

Checkuser comments: All of the IP addresses that the master account and its socks have used, as well as the two IPs identified on this SPI, are highly dynamic and at least some of them are likely proxies. There is no reasonable prospect of qualitatively identifying any socks here, not that we would normally comment on IP addresses. A short block for the most recent IPs is all that can be done, and I've applied one-week blocks. Risker ( talk) 04:53, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Similar interest area, namely adding/removing height information and changing pictures in Bollywood actor/actress articles. this summary is very similar to this summary by original account. Obsession with Arjun Kapoor also continues in such experimental edits as this, which comprised much of the original account's contributions. And more obviously, this username is similar to the name of her previous sock. Krimuk|90 ( talk) 07:44, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

An obvious sock who doesn't seem to be tired of harassing me. -- Krimuk|90 ( talk) 01:24, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- Vanjagenije I have previously summarised Mridul Sharma's long term harassment towards me in this thread. Hope that's helpful. "Katrina Mukti D'Souza Kapoor" is a name Sharma has often referred to me as, I think because my username "Kri" and "Muk" are part of this name. Also, this user page that they created references my real name "Smarojit" (which was my username before I requested a change) and copies a format I previously used on my user page. If you also look at the page history of my previous username, an IP sock of Sharma is making those very same edits. -- Krimuk|90 ( talk) 02:02, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

This user constantly harasses Krimuk90. This to me is serious and the user has a history of setting up other accounts. I'm therefore requesting CheckUser to see if they have any sleeping accounts. As the user has emailed me quite a few times begging to be unblocked, I suspect that they may have. 5 albert square ( talk) 10:48, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Gamer201 is an old account, created in 2008, but didn't make their first edit until 18 November 2015, editing only in their own userspace until 3 December, when they suddenly decided to remove material from an old talk page archive belonging to Krimuk90, the exact same material regarding Mriduls.sharma that has previously been removed by other socks (see archive history, Superman403 is a blocked Mriduls.sharma sock; as for Chander, see below). Among their very few edits outside their own user space are also a revert of an edit made by Krimuk90 (who Mriduls.sharma had multiple run-ins with), edits, including odd moves, of Boney Kapoor, an article edited by both Mriduls.sharma and multiple previous socks, and the edits that caught my eye, replacing the sock tag on User:Mriduls.sharma with a {{retired}} tag, and removing everything but that tag from User talk:Mriduls.sharma. Edits trying to hide the fact that Mriduls.sharma has been indeffed for socking that fit in with edits previously made by other socks (edits which include blocked sock Ranvirojha trying to move the user pages to a different name...).
When looking at the edits made by Gamer201 I found Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Chander, which fits in perfectly with this SPI and Gamer201's edits, including trying to remove the exact same material from Krimuk90's old talk page archive as Gamer201 did. Chander was indeffed in November 2015 (not long before Gamer201 started editing...), but made their last edit just short of three months ago, so there might still be a chance to compare Chander and Gamer201 technically, which is why I have requested a CU check. Considering the number of previous socks there might also be sleepers. Thomas.W talk 19:21, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
- @ Bbb23: Gamer201, Chander and Superman403 (blocked as a Mriduls.sharma sock by Ponyo in March 2015), plus a number of IPs, have all tried to remove the exact same material about Mriduls.sharma from a one-year-old user talkpage archive ( Gamer201, Superman403, Chander), material that isn't in any way degrading or insulting, unless being referred to as a "her" is seen as degrading. An archive there's no way to find by chance, which is why I see all of the accounts as connected to each other, as either sock-puppets or meat-puppets. Thomas.W talk 21:20, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

- As far as I know, all the accounts here are Stale. I CU-blocked the last account in May 2015, which means the gap between the technical evidence supporting that block and Gamer201's technical evidence is six months.
- Gamer201 is Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely). They are using the same range of IPs, and at least one of the user agents is close to what they used in May 2015, taking into account the lapse of time.
- Gamer201 is

- Indeffing Gamer201 with tag. Chander actually makes the opposite edits to Gamer201 and Superman403 (he replaces instead of removes). That doesn't rule him out per se but it appears that he found that archive by
first reverting an IP and then backtracking to that IP's edit to the archive.

"Kumirk90" is an impostor of Krimuk90. Material.scientists is an obvious impostor of admin Materialscientist. Both accounts edited at Arjun Kapoor, which was also a hotbed of activity for a bunch of socks. I don't know who the actual master is, but given that two impostor accounts have sprung up in the last day or two, I'd like to get a CU to look into things. I've blocked both accounts, but have not tagged anyone. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 19:45, 8 November 2016 (UTC)
Addendum: just added Supsupermanser to the CU list. He popped up at Arjun Kapoor restoring content added by Kumirk, and he also intersects with Kumirk at Abhishek Bachchan and Vivek Oberoi. In all these cases, he was adding actor heights based on information at lightscamerabollywood.com. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 19:56, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

- Abhijit404, a CU confirmed sock has previously been an irritant to Renamed user henga2423 (formerly Krimuk90). In the archive, one of the socks was an impostor of Krimuk. Similarly, BoneyK has done some stuff in Renamed user's userspace.
- Account Cyphoidbombs is a pale imitation of yours truly. Again, an impostor account like the previous socks. Contininuing the Cyphoidbomb focus, BoneyK has attempted to harass me on my talk page and reverted a number of edits of mine.
Pretty ducky, and the accounts have been indeffed, but I'm filing this for completeness. I'm opening a CU request only because he's been rather prolific l'm curious if there are other accounts out there that need to be discovered. No idea what this guy's game plan is, and other than opening the SPI a few days ago, I don't know what other intersection I've had with this person. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 21:13, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
