[edit] Xseor

Relisted

  • Supporting evidence:

Evidence of copyvio vandalism on Winshill article below in archive section, Xseor (talk · contribs) is the same as banned user Tile join (talk · contribs). The new account Too won (talk · contribs) reverted to the same edit, in this diff:[1]. A comparison with the versions[2] shows it is identical to the last sockpuppet edit. Obvious sock, but the user probably has more. --Snigbrook (talk) 19:40, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I have hard blocked the offending account, it is almost certainley a reappearance of Xseor. No further sock puppets have appeared yet but I am watching the page. Camaron | Chris (talk) 20:01, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Xseor

Ongoing, long term vandalism to Winshill (continuing for almost a year, despite the page having been semi- and fully-protected on several occasions, on the most recent occasion for 5 months). The vandal's MO is to revert to a version of the article which is entirely a copyvio from here as made clear by the "Copyright © 2007 University of London & History of Parliament Trust - All rights reserved" declaration at the bottom of that page. I suspect that this is one extraordinarily determined individual who cannot resist the temptation to disrupt the article where other users have made significant improvements over the last few weeks. If confirmed, rangeblock requested and check for any further sleeper accounts. DWaterson (talk) 20:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I think this is related to these two groups of accounts (I think these are blocked, but other accounts may have been created in these batches, which it may be possible to identify by checkuser):

created 9 April:

created 12 April:

Note: no contributions visible from Zazzes, but probably connected with the three accounts mentioned above.

What looks like it could be another group of accounts from the same vandal was created on 19 April, none have edited or been blocked yet. Of course it is likely that there were other accounts created since 12 April. --Snigbrook (talk) 18:26, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

The editor names, long-term determination, and creation histories seem a lot like Tile join/Eir Witt, the "Genesis vandal"/"Northwich Victoria" vandal. Check the names under Wikipedia sockpuppets of Tile join and see if they ring a bell. J. Spencer (talk) 03:46, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
It is the same vandal; Ferry real is already tagged as a sockpuppet of Tile join. --Snigbrook (talk) 14:09, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Confirmed all, and yes, this is Tile join. Thatcher 11:19, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
