Previous sock accounts of this puppeteer were all blocked on June 5th. This new account was created today and happens to find a random draft and removes the G5 tag? [3]  Looks like a duck to me. In any case, the draft was still created by a block evading sockpuppet and should be deleted per G5 but since this is a case of sockpuppetry I thought I would bring it here. --Majora (talk) 00:09, 15 June 2016 (UTC) Majora (talk) 00:09, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Gufelagordge created Draft:Alexander Asiedu [4]. It was edited by the IP, and the draft was declined by Kikichugirl [5]. Armythorn1122 blanked the AfC page and moved it into mainspace. The now blank submission was declined again, and was then edited by Nightarmy1122. MSJapan (talk) 18:56, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked and tagged based on behavior. @OnionRing: Please don't file these reports in the wrong case. You should be aware of where they belong now. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:51, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And yet twice today in your deletion rationales for Samantha Steffen, you've written "G5: Created by a banned or blocked user (Newzealand123‎) in violation of ban or block". OnionRing (talk) 15:58, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@OnionRing: That was sloppy on my part. When I delete a tagged article, the default rationale is the one provided by the tagger (you). I should have wiped it out and deleted it per G5 without specifying a master (I don't usually bother specifying the master in the delete).--Bbb23 (talk) 17:18, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Not a problem! Just letting you know that it was unclear to me, so I erred on what seemed to be the side of caution as it seems likely that the two SPIs are for the same puppeteer. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 17:21, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@OnionRing: Actually, it's highly unlikely the two masters are related. Based on the CheckUser logs, as I suspected, they are not editing from the same continent.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:41, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Per DUCK, created Draft:Samantha Steffen(Television Personality), now found at Draft:Samantha Steffen, as their first and only edit. — Sam Sailor 10:47, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Adding Ruerrooe332, only two edits have been to Draft:Samantha Steffen. — Sam Sailor 10:49, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Adding Fireupon1234, created Draft:Samantha Steffen The television Actress. — Sam Sailor 10:52, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Adding Redwine2345, created Draft:The Chase Carlisle. The title Draft:Chase Carlisle created by previous socks is salted. Aslo adding Instagrammer007, only edits are to Draft:The Chase Carlisle. — Sam Sailor 11:39, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting a CU for sleepers.

Would an admin compare the deleted Dennis Koutoudis with Dennis S. Koutoudis, please? The way that Ksawery was hijacked (Diff) and then moved to Dennis S. Koutoudis 19 seconds later (Diff) catches my attention. I also notice that the editor performing the move has uploaded File:Dennis S. Koutoudis.jpg which looks like a cropped version of File:Dennis Koutoudis.jpg uploaded by SAEEDWEDSJHONNY1122 whose 1122-suffix matches multiple socks. — Sam Sailor 12:23, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Reopening and adding Murdocker32. Per DUCK: Created Draft:Michael Morelli Jr.; already blocked sock Redwine2345 created the identical Draft:The Michael Morelli Jr. and Draft:Michael morelli Jr.. — Sam Sailor 16:29, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As their only edit, they removed the {{db-banned}} from Ifeanyichukwu Onyeabo, an article created by blocked sock User:Vioieeww332. Also SIMNAME to several blocked accounts. A check for sleepers seems prudent in this case. — Sam Sailor 17:24, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

CU blocked account User:Troyforce334 created Hagay Mizrahi. It was deleted 12:24, 25 August 2016 under G5. Subject, Hagay Mizrahi, has disclosed that the article was a US$70 job, cf. Special:Permalink/736151403#Hagay Mizrahi. Less than six hours later, User:Uurete22 is created and recreates Hagay Mizrahi. Judging without admin-o-vision, it is a verbatim copy. A check for sleepers is suggested. — Sam Sailor 22:31, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Every time I run a check on this master, I look for sleepers and other accounts not detected, as you can see from the list above. There's no point in running another check so soon after the last one. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:24, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Recreating Dennis Koutoudis yet again, currently at Dennis S Koutoudis

Like other articles by this sock farm this one was created by hijacking another unrelated page [12] (Dento-alveolar), moving it to the desired location [13] and then repointing the resulting redirect [14]
