[edit] Elektronik

  • Code letter: C and F

Elektronik (talk contribs) and his/her sockpuppets have linkspammed theshadowsun.net in the past. It looks like Swiftkid (talk contribs) has the same M.O. Here's an applicable diff from Swiftkid: [1] Also, Swiftkid's user page and talk page content mirror that of many of Elektronik's sockpuppets. Would there happen to be anything we can do about this? All known sockpuppets of Elektronik have been blocked indefinitely so far as a result of a prior checkuser case. --Takeel 17:51, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Confirmed Swiftkid (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser) along with Gman2000 (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser) and Lights shadow (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser). All blocked. Perhaps this address should be added to the m:Spam blacklist? Sam Korn (smoddy) 19:05, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
Looks like the folks on meta have smiled upon that idea, but I think that the spamming user was evading the blacklist somehow. --Takeel 19:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
Oh, now I see how: shadowsun.com this time, shadowsun.net last time. Doh, how did I miss that? --Takeel 19:59, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elektronik

  • Code letter: C

The problem behavior is link spamming. Both of these accounts appear to be solely dedicated to the spamming of links that are all on the same domain, so including diffs is probably redundant because the contribs pretty much tell the whole story. These accounts also appear to remove warnings that are posted to the accounts' talk pages. --Takeel 17:37, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Additional information needed please - code C requires diffs to demonstrate the vandalistic behaviour, and to draw the link between the users. Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 22:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
I thought I mentioned that basically all of these two users' edits were spam edits. :/ Anyway, here you go --Takeel 00:21, 11 November 2006 (UTC):
Elektronik (talk contribs) [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13]
Elektronic (talk contribs) [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]
Confirmed sockpuppets include Elektronik, Elektronic, VGM20, BlueShizzTwo, Zealotgi, DNS7, OCR40, OCR50, OCR60, Unknownabyss, Analoq, RKC06, Nanoranger, and Mazedude. It appears to be a concerted effort to spam theshadowsun.net. I've blocked the IP. Dmcdevit·t 00:31, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
