Filing for the record. All are tagged and blocked per CU evidence. FWIW, this is a herpetologist of sorts who can't leave Wikipedia alone. Drmies (talk) 19:01, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Drmies brought this to my attention -it's being filed just so we can have a record. I'll mark for close. TNXMan 19:12, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thegoodson is long blocked; adding this for the record. The IP was blocked before as a sock of Thegoodson, but behavioral evidence makes it abundantly obvious that they are all the same. The IP is static and has been used for years, therefore I find enough justification for a long block--though I invite your scrutiny. (I don't think we need a CU here.) Thanks to all you SPIers.

Account created soon after last sock block. Same unusual areas of interest (venomous snakes and opioids) and activity (has already begun activity in the GA process). Compare contribs to Sebastian80 and RedGKS. Danger High voltage! 19:25, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See ANI thread, "Disruptive, authoritarian editor in Snake articles". Most damning evidence is the fixation on Black mamba and getting it to GA. Editor's interest are a spitting image of those of Sebastian80; see this version of their user page. Note the toxicology, the Canada thing, note how both edited Temazepam (many of Veronica's socks have edited that article). Drmies (talk) 03:16, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Today, the brand new user id User:Enigmatic84 has been inappropriately spattering psychology articles with references to borderline personality disorder at a rapid rate see Special:Contributions/Enigmatic84. Similar inappropriate references to borderline personality disorder were made a few months ago by now banned sockpuppet User:DendroNaja - see [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. User:DendroNaja also wrote on my talk page telling me that he himself has been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder - see User talk:Penbat#Cluster B PD.27s and psychopathy. Its just far too much of a coincidence that User:DendroNaja and User:Enigmatic84 are both acting dysfunctionally and both have a strong interest in borderline personality disorder. In addition both wrongly specifically linked psychopathy to borderline User:DendroNaja [6] [7] User:Enigmatic84 [8].Penbat (talk) 09:09, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the 27 September section, so it's in the protocol for future reference. Admins Drmies and Cas Liber have dealt with this person before (01 May, 2014 case) and after checking and verifying that this is clearly the same person. have just banned him (again) in his new reincarnation. Debate can be seen here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Drmies#The_return_of_the_snake_article_vandal 79.182.37.12 (talk) 10:33, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Another account appeared, Angusticeps , on December 25. With its interest in cobras, black mambas, venom doses thereof and personaility disorders, I have blocked on behavioural grounds. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 20:12, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Almost exclusively edits snake related articles, especially concerning cobras. VeronicaPR has previously used account names with 'Red' in the title (User:RedGKS). Has created Tropidolaemus laticinctus and Nubian spitting cobra and introduced copyright violating material (just like Veronica). Has also edited those articles in close proximity to User:Angusticeps (another blocked sock) and edits by that account to Template:Taxonomy/nubiae further demonstrate the link between them and the creator of Nubian spitting cobra.

I've just noticed Draft:Nubian spitting cobra by Angusticeps as well. Bellerophon talk to me 09:27, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Inconclusive Given the master's extensive use of proxies in the past, checkuser is all but useless in this case. Any determination will need to be made based on behaviour.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 00:26, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • RedSasori15 appears to have the same difficulty with copyright violations as past socks. (e.g. RedSasori15: 1 , 2 Sebastian80: 3 RedGKS: 4) The account is interested in editing taxonomy boxes. (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and many more) Other confirmed accounts, like DendroNaja, show the same interest in the taxonomy of dangerous snakes. (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) As such, I've blocked the account as a sock based upon behavior. Mike V • Talk 04:49, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Other than that, I want to see them address Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/DendroNaja if they are to be unblocked. Moneytrees🏝️Talk/CCI guide 16:26, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
