I corrected the username of OglebayWheeling as the account that you provided did not exist. The other thing that seems to be missing is any actual evidence. Awarding a barnstar is not, by itself, evidence of any wrongdoing even if it is to an outed sockpuppet. Of course, it may be part of a larger pattern of evidence but as I said, that has not been provided. Just a quick check shows no overlap of editing between OglebayWheeling and any other account identified in this case. Just twigged that the barnstar was awarded in support of an unblock request for a blocked sock. Comments struck. 86.140.67.152 ( talk) 18:20, 5 November 2020 (UTC) reply

The edits by these users seem exactly alike. They all spam the same information on the articles. They all also kept reverting the actions of other users when they attempted to remove the vandalism.

Nonsensical vandalism that is reverted unusually rapidly, which is the main thing this LTA does. See all other socks' contributions. CU for sleepers as this is an LTA. Steve M ( talk) 02:28, 14 February 2021 (UTC) reply

EDIT: Generic 1-sentence unblock request is also strong evidence that this account is a Pcgmsrich sock. 03:32, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Zzuuzz I doubt this is Cruizir, as a lot of vandals impersonate him in order to get the attention that the desperately want. Would it be best to deny recognition and revoke talk page access of Ambergarden? Steve M ( talk) 18:00, 25 February 2021 (UTC) reply

I'll go with what I said, but there is one credible alternative: Woshiyiweizhongguoren. In any case, it's a bit academic, of no real import. Maybe tags are not helpful. -- zzuuzz (talk) 18:26, 25 February 2021 (UTC) reply

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

  • This, and other socks I've looked at, are the same person as User talk:Ambergarden and their socks, who, along with impersonating several other vandals, claims to be Cruizir. I'd say it's possilikely, but whether that's actually true is an academic exercise for the reader. Also, like CaptainEek suggests, effective range blocks are not always easy or possible. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:36, 25 February 2021 (UTC) reply

Dolfi2000 was blocked after edit-warring, changing the graphic representation of music staff sharps and flats on multiple articles. The username Dolfi2000 was registered after multiple IPs were blocked doing the same thing on musical key articles. [7] [8] 홍성국강준현 restored two of the same edits of Dolfi2000 and various IPs.

Spicy, Dolfi2000 is RafikiSykes or Pcgmsrich. They have overlapping ranges on Commons; Dolfi2000 behaviour there more closely matches RafikiSykes. Эlcobbola  talk 22:59, 25 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Spicy, sorry to ping again and to keep updating: Dolfi2000 on en.wiki, however, more closely matches Pcgmsrich (compare interest musical notes and content of unblock requests). Эlcobbola  talk 23:03, 25 January 2023 (UTC) reply
