Suspected sockpuppets

[edit]


All of these accounts have almost solely edited pages related to the Roper family, mostly within the last few days. All of them have used essentially the same modus operandi - large content removals, removal of wikilinks, etc., with some variation in the edit summary of "delete tags, promotion", "promotion to the Roper-Curzon family", or such. The (possible) original editor claimed in an edit summary Special:Diff/1016563608 to have been an undisclosed paid editor ("The family previously paid me to edit their page in their favor. Everything is promotion").

At Baron Teynham:

  • Special:Diff/1016203637 user Historymix prods the page with the only rationale "promotional page" on 5 April
  • Special:Diff/1016358671 user Castamour, removing wikilinks with the summary "Delete tags, promotion" on 6 April
  • Special:Diff/1016518542 user Everastromanof removes wikilinks and some content with the summary "It is promotion to the Roper-Curzon family" on 7 April
  • Special:Diff/1016563608 user Everastromanof again removes the material, while claiming to have been a paid editor

I may have missed a few socks, but I think the links above are very suggestive of a sock farm of some sort. PohranicniStraze (talk) 00:15, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
