Alev13245 created their userpage saying "Long-time listener, first-time caller" wikipedia blocked my account veganlover1993 so here I am again! Dicks!!" And Veganlover1993 has already been determined to be a sock puppet of Muffinatorr. – Qpalzmmzlapq T C 21:48, 1 May 2016 (UTC) reply

I Just wanted to create one page. For that, I am sorry. If you must delete my account, I ask you all to please, keep that page I created. That is all I really wanted.

Appears edit "Wikipedia blocked my account" was made by Alev13245, not Alev12345. Removed speedy deletion tags from pages created by Alev12345. Alev12345 is not a sock puppet; Alev13245 is. Sorry about this. – Qpalzmmzlapq T C 14:05, 2 May 2016 (UTC) reply
  • @ Jpgordon: Were you thinking of the "Ilikeguys" account as the one creating pointless redirects? See [1]. A few of those are useful but a lot are pointless rds that the search box would easily have covered for a searching user. Should those be nuked? Crow Caw 15:40, 10 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Red X Unrelated, and I'm surprised it wasn't obvious to the blocking admin that Alev13245 is a malicious impersonation of Alev12345. However, I'd like another CU to follow the dots of Alev13245/Veganlover/Muffinator; there's another userid that keeps showing up, mostly creating questionable redirects. --jpgordon ::==( o ) 13:40, 2 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Mementomoriwikipedia's user page says "Wikipedia, they blocked my account of veganlover1993 because they thought it would be funny. I will be mad for a time but will get over it.

User created the same Death Note (upcoming film) article except under a slightly different title, which made me automatically suspicious, but I had to AGF because they were being so civil.

Suspected sockpuppets

The PROD of Matt Guthmiller, an article that has been relentlessly attacked by socks in the past, first grabbed my attention. Not only that, but this user meets so many other Veganlover1993 hallmarks that I couldn't help but be a bit suspicious. There's Northern State University: [3] [4], Roger (American Dad!): [5] [6], Aberdeen, South Dakota: [7] [8] [9] Vegans, of course: [10], the google doodle template: [11] [12] [13] [14], (also compare this with this), as well as the creation of several sometimes unhelpful redirects. It's since been all deleted, but User:Ilikeguys21 would make very many similar, often disruptive redirects. OldEnglishHero hasn't engaged in any obvious vandalism so far, but this user has operated good hand/bad hand accounts in the past. Sro23 ( talk) 01:16, 6 November 2016 (UTC) reply

Note how Veganlover1993 has said his name is Tony: [15], and OldEnglishHero spells out the word TONY on his userpage: [16] Sro23 ( talk) 11:37, 7 November 2016 (UTC) reply

Editor has been adding the deleted contents of Template:Google Doodle (see TfD: Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2016 May 14#Template:Google Doodle) to such pages, such as the one today ( [20] and [21]). One of the listed socks of this account ( NikolaTeslaCoil ( talk + · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser( log· investigate · cuwiki)) did the same thing to their talk page as their first edit ( here) and advocated keeping in the discussion. It's especially unlikely that this ~6 month old account would have the deleted contents of the template from over 3 years ago, as well. – Deacon Vorbis ( carbon •  videos) 01:42, 15 October 2019 (UTC) reply
