Suspected sockpuppets


Going back in time, Magnonimous was blocked on December 30, 2007, after he was edit-warring at the article Coral calcium. He was then re-blocked indefinitely on the following day because he was found to be using sockpuppets while blocked. He was only recently unblocked on July 20 of this year because it was believed that he has not used sockpuppets in the interim.

Now to Bentheadvocate. Ben's account was created one day after Magnonimous was indefinitely blocked (On January 1, 2008). On his user page at the time, he wrote, " I am not a new user, I have had some experience on wikipedia in the past. So don't be surprised if I seem to know more than I should."

One of Ben's earliest actions was to propose a new project called "CE : Commission for Collaborative Editing". Nobody else agreed to help with the project, yes an anonymous editor (coincidentally?) added a request that coral calcium be looked at for having unreliable sources. Ben then contacted Ronz, who was the last person Magnonimous was arguing with before he was blocked. Nobody picked up on any of this at the time. Nothing came of it so Ben moved on to other subjects over the next couple of months, then slowed down his editing in late February and after only a few more edits he completely stopped editing in May 2008.

Just recently, on July 8 of this year, Magnonimous returned to request an unblock. That unblock request was declined. Magnonimous made another request, which was put on hold.

Three days later, Bentheadvocate returned out of nowhere, to confirm to Ronz that the IP that was battling Ronz was truly Ben. (Again, arguing with Magnonimous's rival.) Bentheadvocate has run into other problems, see here for some evidence of the most recent problems, but at the moment is blocked for edit-warring (just as Magnonimous was before).

There are just far too many coincidences here. And since Magnonimous has edited as recently as this month, CU evidence should be available for both editors. -- Atama 頭 00:23, 27 July 2011 (UTC) reply

Suspected sockpuppets


This set of three accounts—self-admitted accounts of the same person—was created recently out of the blue apparently with the single purpose of supporting Silver seren's arguments on Talk:Lewontin's Fallacy. There has been a slight coordination of editing on User talk:Causa sui, where the first account made their first edits outside userspace just prior to an edit of Silver seren; and on the talk page of the now-deleted article that SlowhandBlues created which was speedy deleted by SarekOfVulcan. In a now deleted edit, Silver seren had added an inaccurate template on the talk page of that article (see this comment by SarekOfVulcan [1] after the speedy deletion). I have no idea how Silver seren could have known that the fork article had been created. After it was speedily deleted, Silver seren moved the article, of which it was an unattributed copy, to an article of exactly the same title. It is possible that the new editor is a meatpuppet, rather then a sockpuppet, but that is impossible to tell. SlowhandMediator edited simultaneously on the same page as SlowhandBlues, against policy. This sequence of off-topic diffs by SlowhandBlues [2] and Silver seren [3] again suggests a link between the accounts. Mathsci ( talk) 06:26, 2 August 2011 (UTC) reply

Thanks Tnxman307. Since this turned out to be Bentheadvocate/Magnonimous, please could this case be archived under the name of the puppetmaster Magnonimous? (Apologies to Silver seren.) Mathsci ( talk) 14:11, 2 August 2011 (UTC) reply

And my IP address is 128.194.3.80, since i'm at Texas A&M University. And i've never heard of the Wolfdog Forum until...well, just now. But, either way, check all you want.

I ran a check earlier but was unable to post a result because of a network outage. I was initially concerned that Grawp might be involved (he's currently targeting this area) and there were personal attacks going on. Upon further investigation, it seems like Shanghai Sally ( talk · contribs) came out of a year long wikibreak and join the dispute. My initial suspicions were that Shanghai Sally was related to Anguished56 ( talk · contribs) due to the sudden reappearance, but they are Red X Unrelated. Checking Anguished56, it would appear that it is a  Confirmed sock of Foo Bar Buzz Netz ( talk · contribs). Elockid ( Talk) 22:43, 11 November 2011 (UTC) reply
