  •  Additional information needed - @ Velella: 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.
  3. In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this. Vanjagenije (talk) 07:35, 2 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Both past sock User:RFX Dealers and User:Saleh handicrafts added "Buena Vista Television" to the same infobox within a week of each other ( 1, 2). Saleh handicrafts also added a spurious template to RFX Dealers' post-block user page. McGeddon ( talk) 11:25, 16 June 2016 (UTC) reply

WP:DUCK, if you notice the behavior of these two accounts (i.e. the way they contributed at GMA Network, and sharing the same userpage format, like a moving flag, the interested in any country userboxes, and the I-Don't-Know family tree of his / hers), then it is obvious that these both user account is leading to one contributor only.

Only article edits so far have been to the sockmaster's frequent target GMA Network and to two articles recently targetted by past sock Leaderman2000 ( talk · contribs) ( ABS-CBN Corporation and the vanishingly obscure Star S'mores). McGeddon ( talk) 08:55, 18 August 2016 (UTC) reply

Tonare means to thunder ( talk · contribs) joined Wikipedia to edit Star S'mores a few hours later. Their user page is very similar to past sock Xavier Cales, and was created as their first edit, the same as Xavier (and unusual for a genuine new user). -- McGeddon ( talk) 12:47, 18 August 2016 (UTC) reply

Hello, may I asked McGeddon about my sockpuppetry. I let my article like ABS-CBN Corporation. Tonare means to thunder ( talk) 13:12, 18 August 2016 (UTC) reply

I don't know what that means, but Tonare has never edited ABS-CBN Corporation. Lexiconsman and other Synthelabobabe21 socks have, though. -- McGeddon ( talk) 14:40, 18 August 2016 (UTC) reply

Family Tree on userpage, first edit two days after other socks banned, interest in media and telecommunications, adding category rollbacking to original master, and adding unneeded templates to articles are all signs that this user is another sock.

@ BU Rob13: can do; replying up here for tidiness' sake.
  • Sardonyxes's user page contains a clade tree (or "family tree") ( [2]). Previously confirmed socks have done the same: [3], [4].
  • The clade tree contains at least one link to a common topic: RTL CBS Entertainment. None of the socks have edited that article, but one added a cryptic {{ cleanup}} tag to RTL Group. Later, Sardonyxes wrapped the corrected cleanup tag with {{ multiple issues}}: [5]. Sardonyxes' clade tree also includes CBN Asia which has been edited by a sock in the past.
  • Previous accounts have often claimed userrights they do not have: [6], [7], [8]. Sardonyxes tagged the master's userpage as having rollback rights, although they did it incorrectly. Previous socks have also edited other socks' pages at least once: [9].
This was about as far as I got in my investigation; I found the behaviour convincing enough along with the "possible" CU result. Let me know if you need more. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 01:40, 11 November 2016 (UTC) reply

Continued creation (and sometimes re-creation) of articles on topics where notability cannot be established due to lack of reliable sources, and because of the creator's English being so poor as to be incomprehensible. Already blocked, requesting CU for sleepers based on master's history. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 14:08, 1 February 2017 (UTC) reply
