Account was created in December 2019 which seems to be in near a similar time frame to the other accounts created. Along with also being from Bangladesh, very similar User page layout and editing style, also has the same interests in articles edited. Given the fact that Alamgir Khan seems to lie, I still suspect this account maybe related and request an additional check. Already shown the user like the create multiple accounts there maybe a few more about. Govvy ( talk) 07:33, 31 March 2020 (UTC) reply

User:Tigers Football 365 also looks suspicious to me. The same userpage infobox as always, editing the same articles, plus the username contains elements from their previous confirmed sockpuppet usernames ( Red & Green Tigers, Football Lover 1987, MTB 365). If these or other socks are confirmed, I have to ask again—is there an IP address or an IP range to block? And I mean a long-term block.— J. M. ( talk) 14:26, 26 May 2021 (UTC) reply

So what we know is that Tigers Football 365 should definitely be blocked from editing, as this is a confirmed sock puppet. Could you please do it? The user still keeps editing Wikipedia (including my talk page), and they read this SPI page, too. There is no reason to wait. Furthermore, unless they're twins, Rana Sheikh 1999 and Mr Sohag Sheikh is the same person, too, see [4] vs. [5], and both were editing the same articles as other confirmed socks here.

The master has the usual userpage ( [6], compare [7] [8] etc.), and there's enough overlap for both the master (e.g. [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16], and that's just part of it) and the sock ( [17] [18]) to essentially rule out coincidence. I also note that on 6 September, Mz7 blocked similarly-named Sanyhd ( talk · contribs) as a duck despite an "unrelated" CU result and mentioned the possibility of meat or CU evasion. I think it's likely that this is the same MO, or the same person again. Given the possibility of a joe job, and stuff like [19], I recommend leaving them all with  No tags, and will be updating the archive notice accordingly.

Created CFW202 and Raad ahmed account just after 1 day since Rana Sheikh 1999 and SanyHosaain (socks of Alamgir) were blocked. CFW202 just joined 24 hours ago and completed creating userpage. He seems to have good knowledge about templates and source editing. They have already known how to create cricket match scorecards (as per the diffs)- [20], [21] etc. So, it is almost sure that CFW202 is not a new user. SannyHossain's only 2 edits are in the article Nepal Super League- [22] and [23]. While CFW202's first edit is of similar article 2021 Nepal Super League- [24]. CFW202 and Radd Ahmed doesn't use manual edit summaries other than the automated ones, while all the socks of Alamgir and most of socks of Wikipedia don't use edit summary. See [25], [26] etc examples to cite. By observing the user contributions of all socks of Alamgir, I observed that CFW202 and Radd ahmed's editing patterns are similar. They both edit articles related to Bangladesh Cricket and Football. CFW202 leaves messages in Bengali, while once Tigers Football365 also left me a message in Bengali. Now let me come to Radd Ahmed. Tigers Football365 and SannyHossain's larger number of edits are to 2020–21 Bangladesh Women's Football League, while Radd Ahmed's all edits are to 2020–21 Bangladesh Women's Football League. See his user contributions. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 14:14, 2 June 2021 (UTC) reply

I think we should keep eye on the pages those were edited by SR Alamgir and their socks. Because I think they will continue this nonsense job of creating new accounts even after being caught always. Thanks. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 11:42, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

To CaptainEek, Cabayi, Yamla, Oshwah, L235 or any other admin: This is it, enough is enough. Please revoke talk page access for SR Alamgir Khan. The fact that the user is still, after all that's happened in the last days, weeks and months, allowed to edit the page and post all the nonsense and lies there is one of the most inexplicable things I've ever seen on Wikipedia. Just a couple of hours ago, while using yet another confirmed sock puppet, the user was swearing to God that they would not do anything bad anymore, denying the CFW202 connection. Their talk page access should have been revoked a long time ago, but the fact that it still hasn't happened yet, after repeated requests, is now clearly indefensible.— J. M. ( talk) 22:55, 2 June 2021 (UTC) reply

@ Blablubbs: As for your SanyHossain suspicion above: the account is confirmed to মো লুৎফর রহমান and possibly also to Radd ahmed from this report. CFW202, which is now a confirmed sock puppet of SR Alamgir Khan, said on their talk page that they actually know Rahad ahmed, Sany hd and Yeas07, who, according to CFW202, are in Bangladesh, while CFW202 is allegedly in South Africa. So yes, these accounts are probably at least related. It can constitute meatpuppetry, but it can also be sock puppetry—the user may be using IP addresses from different continents somehow (after all, the user is provably a pathological liar, as you can see on SR Alamgir Khan's talk page and their numerous user pages, and may not be telling the truth). In any way, when SanyHosaain, মো লুৎফর রহমান and Yeash07 (who is a suspected sock puppet) are blocked, then logically Radd ahmed, who is confirmed to SanyHosaain, should be blocked, too. Perhaps there could be a separate SPI branch for SanyHosaain and their confirmed socks should be moved there?

And finally (and I will keep repeating this until it happens), talk page access for SR Alamgir Khan should be revoked. This is screamingly obvious and nobody has been able to explain why it hasn't happened yet.— J. M. ( talk) 00:09, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Thanks. Just found another one; Md Rana Sheikh ( talk · contribs) got reactivated following the last round of blocks after having slept for a while, has a draft of the typical infobox userpage here, extensive overlap here, and shares the "real name" username pattern.  Relisted – please compare this one against both the confirmed SR Alamgir Khan socks and Radd ahmed ( talk · contribs) from above. Thanks. -- Blablubbs| talk 09:42, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
    • Md Rana Sheikh is  Confirmed to Radd Ahmed. This exposes REJWAN AHMED19 and Rejwan Ahmed36 as  Confirmed to that side of things, but not to SR Alamgir Khan. Please block and tag appropriately. -- Yamla ( talk) 10:40, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
      • @ Yamla, with the CU additional data from the two sleepers plus Md Rana Sheikh, can we say anything more specific about the relationship to the SanyHossein group? Thanks. -- Blablubbs| talk 11:19, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
        • Based on checkuser evidence, I believe we have three groups here. The SR Alamgir Khan group, the Radd Ahmed, and the SanyHossain group. I concur with the above finding that, based on checkuser evidence, these last two are a mix between possible and likely the same group. If I had to pick a side based on checkuser evidence, I'd say these are three separate people, not two (that is, the last two groups are separate), but this is not certain. As everyone knows, checkuser evidence cannot speak to WP:MEAT. Based on this comment, they do appear to all know each other, though frankly I haven't had enough coffee yet today to keep track of everyone here. -- Yamla ( talk) 12:50, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

This user's larger edits are in updating the dates in Template:Updated in football clubs articles, see this diff, this etc. which the previous socks also used to do. They are also updating the current squads of the articles related to club seasons, which was previously done by the other socks, see Special:Diff/1032646701. This user mostly edit the same pages as the previous socks, mostly related to Bangladeshi football clubs, seasons and Bangladeshi cricket. Compare Special:Contributions/Chowdhury07 with Special:Contributions/SH Alamgir Khan and Special:Contributions/Tigers Football 365. Their similarity in editing behaviour and pattern gives me the impression that they are the same person. Chowdhury07 has also built his userpage after his very first edit, which is really difficult for a new user. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 02:26, 9 July 2021 (UTC) reply

@ Oshwah: If he is unrelated to SR Alamgir, then he may be related to Yeash07 ( talk + · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser( log) · investigate · cuwiki). This is because, Yeash07 mentioned in his user infobox that he is from Chittagong. While Chowdhury07's userpage also says that he is from Chittagong, I am new Wikipedian from Chittagong, Bangladesh. So, there is perhaps similarity in geolocation. In fact, Chowdhury's edits are also similar to Yeash07. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 04:44, 9 July 2021 (UTC) reply

  • I just had a massive post typed out but it seems like spihelper doesn't like edit conflict, so here goes again: Pink clock Awaiting administrative action - I'm not sure if it's a joe job or good proxy use, but I'm convinced the remaining three in the SanyHossain group are related somehow. The master has the usual userpage ( [6], compare [7] [8] etc.), and there's enough overlap for both the master (e.g. [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16], and that's just part of it) and the sock ( [17] [18]) to essentially rule out coincidence. I also note that on 6 September, Mz7 blocked similarly-named Sanyhd ( talk · contribs) as a duck despite an "unrelated" CU result and mentioned the possibility of meat or CU evasion. I think it's likely that this is the same MO, or the same person again. Given the possibility of a joe job, and stuff like [19], I recommend leaving them all with  No tags, and will be updating the archive notice accordingly.

Suspected sockpuppets

Created CFW202 and Raad ahmed account just after 1 day since Rana Sheikh 1999 and SanyHosaain (socks of Alamgir) were blocked. CFW202 just joined 24 hours ago and completed creating userpage. He seems to have good knowledge about templates and source editing. They have already known how to create cricket match scorecards (as per the diffs)- [20], [21] etc. So, it is almost sure that CFW202 is not a new user. SannyHossain's only 2 edits are in the article Nepal Super League- [22] and [23]. While CFW202's first edit is of similar article 2021 Nepal Super League- [24]. CFW202 and Radd Ahmed doesn't use manual edit summaries other than the automated ones, while all the socks of Alamgir and most of socks of Wikipedia don't use edit summary. See [25], [26] etc examples to cite. By observing the user contributions of all socks of Alamgir, I observed that CFW202 and Radd ahmed's editing patterns are similar. They both edit articles related to Bangladesh Cricket and Football. CFW202 leaves messages in Bengali, while once Tigers Football365 also left me a message in Bengali. Now let me come to Radd Ahmed. Tigers Football365 and SannyHossain's larger number of edits are to 2020–21 Bangladesh Women's Football League, while Radd Ahmed's all edits are to 2020–21 Bangladesh Women's Football League. See his user contributions. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 14:14, 2 June 2021 (UTC) reply

I think we should keep eye on the pages those were edited by SR Alamgir and their socks. Because I think they will continue this nonsense job of creating new accounts even after being caught always. Thanks. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 11:42, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

To CaptainEek, Cabayi, Yamla, Oshwah, L235 or any other admin: This is it, enough is enough. Please revoke talk page access for SR Alamgir Khan. The fact that the user is still, after all that's happened in the last days, weeks and months, allowed to edit the page and post all the nonsense and lies there is one of the most inexplicable things I've ever seen on Wikipedia. Just a couple of hours ago, while using yet another confirmed sock puppet, the user was swearing to God that they would not do anything bad anymore, denying the CFW202 connection. Their talk page access should have been revoked a long time ago, but the fact that it still hasn't happened yet, after repeated requests, is now clearly indefensible.— J. M. ( talk) 22:55, 2 June 2021 (UTC) reply

@ Blablubbs: As for your SanyHossain suspicion above: the account is confirmed to মো লুৎফর রহমান and possibly also to Radd ahmed from this report. CFW202, which is now a confirmed sock puppet of SR Alamgir Khan, said on their talk page that they actually know Rahad ahmed, Sany hd and Yeas07, who, according to CFW202, are in Bangladesh, while CFW202 is allegedly in South Africa. So yes, these accounts are probably at least related. It can constitute meatpuppetry, but it can also be sock puppetry—the user may be using IP addresses from different continents somehow (after all, the user is provably a pathological liar, as you can see on SR Alamgir Khan's talk page and their numerous user pages, and may not be telling the truth). In any way, when SanyHosaain, মো লুৎফর রহমান and Yeash07 (who is a suspected sock puppet) are blocked, then logically Radd ahmed, who is confirmed to SanyHosaain, should be blocked, too. Perhaps there could be a separate SPI branch for SanyHosaain and their confirmed socks should be moved there?

And finally (and I will keep repeating this until it happens), talk page access for SR Alamgir Khan should be revoked. This is screamingly obvious and nobody has been able to explain why it hasn't happened yet.— J. M. ( talk) 00:09, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

  • CFW202 is  Confirmed to SR Alamgir Khan. Radd Ahmed is  Possible to the SanyHosaain accounts, but bears basically no resemblence to SR Alamgir Khan, probably different farms. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n! ⚓ 22:27, 2 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Thanks. Just found another one; Md Rana Sheikh ( talk · contribs) got reactivated following the last round of blocks after having slept for a while, has a draft of the typical infobox userpage here, extensive overlap here, and shares the "real name" username pattern.  Relisted – please compare this one against both the confirmed SR Alamgir Khan socks and Radd ahmed ( talk · contribs) from above. Thanks. -- Blablubbs| talk 09:42, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
    • Md Rana Sheikh is  Confirmed to Radd Ahmed. This exposes REJWAN AHMED19 and Rejwan Ahmed36 as  Confirmed to that side of things, but not to SR Alamgir Khan. Please block and tag appropriately. -- Yamla ( talk) 10:40, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
      • @ Yamla, with the CU additional data from the two sleepers plus Md Rana Sheikh, can we say anything more specific about the relationship to the SanyHossein group? Thanks. -- Blablubbs| talk 11:19, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply
        • Based on checkuser evidence, I believe we have three groups here. The SR Alamgir Khan group, the Radd Ahmed, and the SanyHossain group. I concur with the above finding that, based on checkuser evidence, these last two are a mix between possible and likely the same group. If I had to pick a side based on checkuser evidence, I'd say these are three separate people, not two (that is, the last two groups are separate), but this is not certain. As everyone knows, checkuser evidence cannot speak to WP:MEAT. Based on this comment, they do appear to all know each other, though frankly I haven't had enough coffee yet today to keep track of everyone here. -- Yamla ( talk) 12:50, 3 June 2021 (UTC) reply

This user's larger edits are in updating the dates in Template:Updated in football clubs articles, see this diff, this etc. which the previous socks also used to do. They are also updating the current squads of the articles related to club seasons, which was previously done by the other socks, see Special:Diff/1032646701. This user mostly edit the same pages as the previous socks, mostly related to Bangladeshi football clubs, seasons and Bangladeshi cricket. Compare Special:Contributions/Chowdhury07 with Special:Contributions/SH Alamgir Khan and Special:Contributions/Tigers Football 365. Their similarity in editing behaviour and pattern gives me the impression that they are the same person. Chowdhury07 has also built his userpage after his very first edit, which is really difficult for a new user. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 02:26, 9 July 2021 (UTC) reply

@ Oshwah: If he is unrelated to SR Alamgir, then he may be related to Yeash07 ( talk + · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser( log) · investigate · cuwiki). This is because, Yeash07 mentioned in his user infobox that he is from Chittagong. While Chowdhury07's userpage also says that he is from Chittagong, I am new Wikipedian from Chittagong, Bangladesh. So, there is perhaps similarity in geolocation. In fact, Chowdhury's edits are also similar to Yeash07. —  A.A Prinon  Leave a dialogue 04:44, 9 July 2021 (UTC) reply
