Beloki

I could do with an indepedent admin looking into the behaviour of Beloki (talk · contribs), which has become extreme very quickly. It might be a coincidence but the TheShadowCrow (talk · contribs) came to mind very quickly once the abuse started, which is why I'm asking you as you recently blocked him. If it is him, I would support an indef. block because he has had more than enough chances now. Many thanks in advance. CT Cooper · talk 20:52, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a little doubtful right now. Some of the pages like the African pages don't seem to be within their article interest. I'll monitor and see if anything develops. Elockid ^(Talk) 13:21, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Some else has had similar suspicions but has reached a different conclusion, Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Findblogging. CT Cooper · talk 18:27, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm concerned about E4024's evidence. Beloki and Kotsia2 don't look like the same user based on behavioral evidence. Elockid ^(Talk) 20:28, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Happy New Year, Elockid

Thanks. Happy New Year to you too! Elockid ^(Talk) 20:28, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, and a question

I do a lot of anti-vandalism work here, but tonight I ran across a pattern that I haven't seen in a long time - multiple rapid edits of a user talk page (User talk:NawlinWiki) by a host of IP's (which you suspended, hence the thanks). My question is how is this happening, and is there a better way to handle it than using Huggle to do one revert after another? I did end up reporting and asking for temporary semi-protection, but this was an odd incident. Is this one person who is somehow jumping IP's or a bunch of people somehow coordinating? Mostly, I am curious. Thanks for any information! Seaphoto^Talk 07:53, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is probably one person (or occasionally one person tricking lots of people). There really is not a good way to stop that except RBI (+protect the page). Prodego ^talk 08:06, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This was Grawp being his usual self. Elockid ^(Talk) 13:48, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, he's been stalking me last couple weeks, lately reverting anything I do on any article and I have to revert it back, noting stalker vandalism. Not sure if that's best way to note the revert. CarolMooreDC 15:29, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If things get worse, feel free to ask me to make protections and such. Elockid ^(Talk) 20:53, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

These aren't looked at by others who can revert them and he obviously intends to just keep reverting them, so maybe you can protect for a couple weeks: Israel–Gaza conflict casualties 2006–2008, Barrett, Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project (which he did after you protected it, or it ended, not sure). He's reverting a couple people here: Stop Islamization of America. CarolMooreDC 04:00, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've put Israel–Gaza conflict casualties 2006–2008 on my watchlist. I've put the other pages on 1 week protection. Elockid ^(Talk) 17:19, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I-G casualties is rarely changed, so I'm obviously suspicious of any AnonIP changes there - even the one that actually had an edit summary! CarolMooreDC 20:23, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, I think he's back to socks. See Wikipedia_talk:Long-term_abuse/JarlaxleArtemis#User:Shegetz_deleted_tag - Grawp's other ID as I'm sure you know. CarolMooreDC 03:14, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RTPking

You said that this editor was blocked, but they are still editing as far as I can see. BollyJeff | talk 01:07, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

They were blocked but the block expired. I've reblocked them for 3 days for continued edit warring. Elockid ^(Talk) 01:34, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sock

Could you look at Special:Contributions/Stealbared? Should be fairly obvious. nableezy - 01:39, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked and page protected. Elockid ^(Talk) 01:44, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Prolific sock

Hi, I've got a self-confessed sock on my talk page. In that thread, I name two other accounts used by this rather prolific block evader, whose master is Austereraj. There have actually been quite a few sock blocks of related accounts since those listed at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Austereraj. Should these have been noted anywhere? I ask because it is getting to the point where there are so many that I cannot recall them all! - Sitush (talk) 08:36, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've blocked both Rajwikipedian and Legalaidclinicssdlc as suspected socks. I would probably file a reference SPI since the archives go all the way back to last February. Elockid ^(Talk) 14:42, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And there's the rub! When you say a "reference SPI", do you mean file a case at SPI even though they are now blocked? And perhaps just note in that case that they are now blocked? I realise that this would then be added to the archives but it seems like additional work for the clerks and SPI always seems to have a backlog. I just want to be sure that I'm doing the right thing and, of course, you know a lot more about this than I do. - Sitush (talk) 15:01, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, just like the one I did here. Having more recent reports can be helpful if CU is necessary in the future (helps CUs have a reference point). Elockid ^(Talk) 15:04, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, yes, I hadn't considered the CU aspect. Will do. Thanks for your help. - Sitush (talk) 15:07, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've provided the diffs in the page. Would you mind having another look at it? —Vensatry _{(Ping me)} 05:56, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the edit from this IP though, it does look like RTPking is

Unrelated to Padmalaskhmisx. Based on what I know, 2001:420:4:EA02:4DAE:3835:E2C3:C76F (talk · contribs) appears to be

Unrelated. I might have overlooked something. Elockid ^(Talk) 18:32, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As a side note, I did block Rightjuncture (talk · contribs) as a suspected sock. Elockid ^(Talk) 18:42, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DUCK Sock

User:24.13.248.100 appears to be a DUCK sock of User:Smokeablunt420 who you blocked - see this edit of Toaster and one of Smoke's. Vacation9 04:08, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked. Elockid ^(Talk) 05:11, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

User 14.102.103.100 is spamming again

Sorry if this is the wrong place - I wasn't sure how to notify the proper admin, but it looked like you had issued a block against this IP before: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/14.102.103.100

It appears the block expired recently and they are at it again, inserting commercial links randomly. I fixed a few pages I saw but thought I would notify someone about it.

Thanks.

Globaldesign

Hi. It looks like there's a huge sock farm here. Kumar1328 (talk · contribs), Nagarajanarasan (talk · contribs) (you've blocked already), Kannadarakshanavedike (talk · contribs) (blocked already) and Tamilselvanhosur (talk · contribs) (a clear quacking). — Abhishek ^Talk 04:13, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Should I create an SPI to dig out if there are more? — Abhishek ^Talk 04:14, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I took a look. Kumar1328 is surprisingly

Unrelated to Globaldesign. I have doubts on Tamilselvanhosur though (I didn't run a check). Elockid ^(Talk) 16:48, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Aminul802

No action to be taken over the painfully obvious meatpuppet? Darkness Shines (talk) 17:09, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You also forgot to post a block notice to Aminul802 talk. Darkness Shines (talk) 18:38, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The thing is, meatpuppets are usually not dealt with at SPI. We usually just block the socks and suspected meatpuppets are left for another forum to decide what to do with them. Elockid ^(Talk) 21:35, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

PC2 protections

Just wanted to let you know — someone who agrees with your PC2 protections of pages like Transdev York has used them as evidence for an argument to extend the use of PC2.

I want to know the history of Maasranga Television

At December 1 Maasranga Television was deleted for A1. But I want you to watch the article history again if there was any problem with my article. I'm requesting you cause I know that admins can watch a deleted page's history. Please can you help me?

I am GeorgianJorjadze and I want my original account back. Please Elockid.

Hello Elockid. I never received your message back in December. I am tired of being hiding all the time but I cannot be without Wikipedia. I was creating all these socks because my original account which is GeorgianJorjadze is blocked with indefinite period without giving me a hope that in some month(s) term I can be back on Wiki. I understand I fucked up many things but cannot you just reconsider unblocking my original account for god's sake. Please give me a chance. I want my original account. At least give me a defined block term and I will know when I will be able to be back and contribute with that account. No more socks, edit wars etc. I cannot live without Wiki so please give me another last chance and give my original account back and unblock it or at least block it but not with indefinite period of time but some months and then I will know when I can use it again. I regret everything what I messed up. I will wait for your reply here on your page. GJ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.49.102.90 (talk • contribs) 20:18, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) You probably want to look at the the standard offer.--Jasper Deng (talk) 20:34, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GeorgianJorjadze. The problem is that we've tried responding to you and explaining to you what you must do to edit again. However, you keep trying to come back without taking our advice. Furthermore, you deliberately lied to us with your newest account, Lovingoni (talk · contribs). I am reluctant to unblock as a result of this. Pretty much the only way now to get unblocked is to take the standard offer (see the link that Jasper gave above). Elockid ^(Talk) 20:59, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please Elockid give me a last chance and be my supervisor. You can check all my edits. All of them will be a contribution-oriented. I promise. I will keep my word this time. Please just a last chance. I want my original account back. Tell me what should I do? GJ— Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.49.102.90 (talk • contribs)

As Elockid said, at this point you will likely only get this account unblocked by following the standard offer, which includes not editing nor socking for 6 months straight, in order to demonstrate that you truely know that sockpuppetry is bad. Elockid and other users cannot be forced to supervise every single one of your edits, so much of it will involve you demonstrating that you can hold yourself accountable to avoid edit warring or other disruptive activity.--Jasper Deng (talk) 21:18, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Jasper. What does that mean exactly? My indefinite block will be changed to 6 month term block? And please don't block my current IP address as I am not going to sock any more. This is the only way for me now to talk to Elockid by this IP address. GJ

I agree with Elockid and Jasper. Read, very carefully, the Standard Offer page (WP:OFFER). At the very minimum, it means waiting six months without any editing activity on any articles at all — no sockpuppets, no logged-out IP edits, no nothing. Some people might say this doesn't strictly apply to user talk pages, but there really isn't any need for that anyway if you're hoping to come back via the Standard Offer, so I'd strongly recommend not doing any IP-editing on anyone's talk page until the six months are done and you're ready to ask to come back. And note that the Standard Offer isn't an automatic thing; even after staying away for at least six months, you will still need to convince people to agree to let you come back. — Rich wales (no relation to Jimbo) 21:47, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Rich. Glad to see you here. All right. I'll do that. Name me an exact month and day when I would be able to be back? GJ

Exactly 6 months starting with the date of the above comment, and it resets if you make any more edits. --Jasper Deng (talk) 22:09, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
