[edit] Requests for IP check

This page lists requests to identify and block the IP addresses behind attack and vandal accounts that were previously listed at Requests for checkuser/IP check. After the account has been reported as blocked or declined by the checkusers, the report is moved here for seven days (most recent sections at the bottom), after which it is deleted. Because there is no attempt to establish a relationship with a puppetmaster account, no separate archive is kept, other than the page history.

Clerks: when clearing this page, please make note of the names of the sections you are deleting in the edit summary.

All pretty obvious sockpuppets, but curious if there's more or if an IP block might be possible. They seem to make a habit of registering, immediately bluelinking their user and/or talk pages with one-character edits, and then adding a link to zipwho.com (either in the external links section or in an article's lead, sometimes using it as a source). Just caught one, tonight, but I see that this has been ongoing for around a month, now. Every sock listed here is already blocked and reverted. – Luna Santin (talk) 07:04, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Y Done unblockable range, with 1-2 accounts per IP. Some additional accounts blocked. Have you blacklisted the URL? Thatcher 15:18, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Avril Vandals

These accounts (and others) apparently really like our article on Avril Lavigne, so much that they plaster annoying Avril stuff on high-use templates, especially those that are used on the Help Desk, Reference Desks, and Admin Noticeboards. Someone please block the IP and any other sleepers? Thanks. Hersfold non-admin(t/a/c) 15:14, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Added User:Buffys is my slayer, an Avril vandal that I reverted a week ago, in case it provides additional help. Deor (talk) 15:23, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
Added User:N Fillion's biggest fan, who just engaged in Avril-related pagemove vandalism in a number of places. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 20:07, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
Added DNA to RNA, Plasticbounceman, Copy of a copy cat (all Avril pagemove vandals}. Hut 8.5 20:38, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Y Done, mostly tor, IP blocked but some dynamic, softblocked. Thatcher 15:05, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Paradocks

This user has sockpuppeted around twenty-two times. The above are all from this month. I believe its about time to block his IP.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 20:33, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

IP blocked - softblock /24 range for a few weeks - Alison 21:13, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Y Gah! - Alison 08:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Another one I just noticed after scrolling down on my watchlist: The Voice Of Your Heart (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser). His quote notwithstanding, this is one of the childish ones who thinks himself wise. -Jéské (v^_^v E pluribus unum) 08:15, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Personal attacks and vandalism, vandalism only accounts

Jimboss69 (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser) Please see Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Jimboss69 for evidence, and also my AN/I report: [1]. User and suspected sock have been blocked, but we should trace the IP to see if the user has created any other accounts. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 22:33, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Y Done Corporate IP so it is hard to know which accounts are controlled by whom. Thatcher 15:39, 2 June 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Grawp-a-like

Not sure if they are the real thing, probably a grawp-a-like.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 18:48, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Y Done - grawp-a-like, but socking under a different sockmaster. Blocked - Alison 19:02, 5 June 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Heyj00 at Montessori School of Westfield

These are the most recent suspected sockpuppets of User:Heyj00, and are involved in ongoing vandalism at Montessori School of Westfield, whenever it is unprotected, since March 2008. I would like to see if there is an underlying IP that can be blocked. The IP listed appears to be the same user, editing in the middle of the latest spate. Kevin (talk) 00:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

IP blocked - hardblocked for a month. There are dozens of socks under there. Shall I list them here for blocking? - Alison 00:46, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. I suspect most of them are already tagged as suspected sockpuppets of Heyj00, and have been blocked already. But if you list them at least we can change the suspected to confirmed. Kevin (talk) 01:00, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually there were quite a lot of unblocked accounts. You can see them in my block log if you want. Thatcher 02:45, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
I have, thanks. Sorry to create so much work for you. Hopefully a month on the IP will cause them to go elsewhere. Kevin (talk) 03:31, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Probably Unrelated. Thatcher 14:45, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Yard vandal

The above accounts vandalise and create articles with the word "lard" or "yard". After seeing a user report that this vandal was active earlier today, I searched the deletion logs for articles with the word "lard" or "yard" and found these accounts:

Can a CU clean out this sock drawer? Thanks, Spellcast (talk) 12:26, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I just found out about Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Lardland. It seems all the accounts were made today. Hopefully the underlying range is small. If not, it was probably coordinated off-wiki. Spellcast (talk) 12:39, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Looks like it's User:Random-5000, a daily active vandal with >100 other socks. There were 6 more accounts during 20 minutes today:
The following block of 121.90.0.0/16 (talk contribs logs block user block log checkuser), which is the suspected range used by Random-5000 (per edits he made logged out), stopped the creation of more socks. --Oxymoron83 13:36, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Y Done That's a good range block, too. It catches a small number of good users but most of the edits are this guy. Thatcher 05:34, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fumer tue

Additional socks from Fumer Tue. The original checkuser case can be found here. APK yada yada 00:43, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Y Done IP and socks blocked. Thatcher 02:23, 10 June 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Grawp

Sneaky vandalism whereby a picture and obscene comment was inserted into multiple high-vis templates, wrapped in noinclude tags to obfuscate. Grawp has been using OPs recently, so this may come up negative. RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 18:41, June 9, 2008 (UTC)
