08 August 2016

Suspected sockpuppets


Master has created valid articles on Ghanaian football players, including Kpah Sean Sherman. The user account under the latter name, however was just given a short block for creation and repeated removal of A7 speedy deletion tags from Daniel Kobe Ricks. Requesting checkuser to confirm the connection. Suggest an indef block for the sock and a short block for the master if socking is confirmed. --Finngall talk 17:53, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This editor has recreated the article on Dauda Mohammed, (under Dauda Mohammed (Striker)), which was previously created by a sockpuppet of Daniel Kobe Ricks Jr. The user name is also similar to that a of a previous sock, Kwame Kizito (talk · contribs).

  • Not sure I'm getting why the creation of this article is a problem; even I can see that the article subject meets notability standards. Is it a surprise that multiple people want to create that article? Incidentally,"Kwame" (and its variations)as a given name in Ghana is kind of like "Joe" (and its variations) in Western countries. I need to see a much stronger reason than this to do a CU. Risker (talk) 21:13, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Closed for the lack of evidence. The recreated article is also very different from the deleted one. Vanjagenije (talk) 22:08, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@KrakatoaKatie: mind pinging me when your finished so I can assist with tagging confirmed socks/accounts? --Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ (talk) 22:39, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Zppix: I appreciate your willingness to help but this one is going to be really complicated, and the clerks need to do it. Serious behavioral analysis ahead. Katietalk 22:42, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not done yet but that's a start. Katietalk 23:17, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Second group. Now that I've seen some of these deleted contributions, I think this whole thing is DKRJ. The deleted contributions of Markhooke23 in particular are compelling, but I'd like Vanjagenije or Bbb23 to make sure this as related to Ghana football players and DKRJ as I think it is:
  • @GAB: When you tag these, be sure to look at the article history for every single page and ping me if you find more possibilities. I've been working from the bottom up and I've deleted everything created by everyone up to Jackson Manneh, and I've already uncovered another range full of socks. I think I'll be busy with it for a while. This isn't Orangemoody-level stuff but it's enough. Katietalk 01:24, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contributions match up perfectly with puppeteers contributions at Worlea Saywah Dunah and Adams Bodomo which were previously deleted under G5. -- Dane2007 talk 18:35, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
