Soprani

Suspected sock of indefblocked user Deathrocker aka Daddy Kindsoul (see Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Deathrocker), evidence given at WP:ANI looks not to be enough to me, so I'd like to ask for a checkuser here. Thank you. Angelo 17:51, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Note that most of these accounts are definitely sockpuppets of Soprani at least. The real question is whether Soprani is a sockpuppet of Deathrocker/Daddy Kindsoul (these two are confirmed as the same person). --Yamla 21:12, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
Note also that the evidence of sockpuppetry includes that Soprani was set up hours after Daddy Kindsoul was blocked, that Soprani immediately resumed editing full bore where Daddy Kindsoul left off the day before (Atalanta B.C.), edited a very similar set of articles, uploaded similar images, edited images created by and uploaded by Daddy Kindsoul, redid edits by Daddy Kindsoul that had been reverted by other users, etc. There's absolutely zero chance that Soprani was a new user and, in my opinion, no reasonable doubt that Soprani is not the same editor as Daddy Kindsoul. --Yamla 01:37, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
Request blocking of underlying IP addresses here. Soprani, even if unrelated to Daddy Kindsoul, which is very unlikely, is well past the point we'd block him on his own merits. With more than twenty abusive sockpuppet accounts, it's time to block the underlying address or, most likely, addresses to prevent further abuse. --Yamla 15:29, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Very Likely that Soprani = Daddy Kindsoul. Also, Iosis (talk · contribs). Unfortunately, an IP block is impossible due to the ISP. Dmcdevit·t 22:09, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
