Suspected sockpuppets

Created the same page, Aaron Javieas Christopher as the user Power rangers spd, with the same content(which seems to be a hoax as they have not provided RS to support it) 331dot (talk) 18:33, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Aside from the username their block seemed to be for being NOTHERE. 331dot (talk) 18:35, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also the above user; have blocked both as sockpuppets based on editing patterns. I blocked the original account for continued re-posting of unsourced material following multiple warnings. This appeared to be the sole purpose of the account, as evidenced by the username, and subsequent sockpuppet username. So yes, essentially WP:NOTHERE. └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 18:37, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets

Most accounts are stale, but a new series of user accounts was created just this morning. All accounts promoting "Aaron J Christopher" in some way, either by adding his name to various articles (the oldest two accounts are blocked for this) or creating biographical user pages for "Aaron J Christopher". I assumed good faith on today's new accounts before I found all of the others with behavior similarities. | Uncle Milty | talk | 11:30, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • @GeneralizationsAreBad: Can you please retag the accounts? Best should have a suspected master tag. The others should have two tags, one that shows they are CU-confirmed and one that shows they are a suspected sock of Best. I changed the status back to checked to keep this from archiving.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:48, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked the account without tagging.  Clerk assistance requested: I noticed this before, but all the accounts were  Stale. However, behaviorally it seems like a slam dunk and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Best22224444 should be merged into this one.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:06, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I copied that case in; could an admin clerk please take care of the old archive page? Thanks, GABgab 01:28, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done. @GeneralizationsAreBad: In such cases we perform WP:history merge. You are not able to do it because you are not an administrator. So, you shouldn't do anything, but ask an admin for help. Making partial merges (like you did here) is not helpful. Also, when you want to tag an account as a confirmed sock of one and suspected sock of another user, you should use one {{sockpuppet}} tag with two masters (see Template:Sockpuppet#Usage, example), not two templates as you made (example). Vanjagenije (talk) 08:37, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Vanjagenije: When I saw what GeneralizationsAreBad had done with the "merge", I figured he had been too ambitious to take on my request. I'm glad you've helped with that. However, the tagging is confusing. The tags for the pre-existing accounts in this case should, of course, remain the same. The new accounts, though, are a mix. If you assume that Best was the master before the merge, then the other new accounts are not confirmed to Best because I specifically did not confirm that relationship. The remaining new accounts, except any that have been blocked without a CU, are confirmed to each other. So, the new accounts other than Best could be confirmed to the oldest account in that group and suspected to Aaron j christopher 101, and you could use the template you suggest. Best would be tagged separately as simply a suspected puppet of the master. Does that make sense?--Bbb23 (talk) 14:32, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Bbb23: But, that is exactly what I did, isn't it (see User:Aaron J Christopher Google for example)? Or am I missing something? Vanjagenije (talk) 18:17, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
          • @Vanjagenije: I could have sworn I looked at a few of the accounts before leaving you the message, but it must be my screw-up. There is still the matter of the accounts I've recently blocked without running a CU. They aren't tagged properly, or are we going to stop tagging accounts in the future?--Bbb23 (talk) 18:24, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
            • @Bbb23: Which are those accounts? Where can I find them? Vanjagenije (talk) 18:27, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
              • @Vanjagenije: The one in this SPI and the one in the SPI below (not the one Crow said to add as that was blocked outside the SPI).--Bbb23 (talk) 18:29, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
                • I tagged them as proven socks of the master. Hope it's ok that way. Vanjagenije (talk) 18:35, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
                  • @Vanjagenije: Now it gets a bit weird, although not really all that important. What they really are is proven socks of the newer "master" but only a suspected sock of the old master if you want to be consistent to the tags on the others. I don't know how you do that. You can leave it as is or change it to suspected. Up to you--Bbb23 (talk) 18:46, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've blocked Fjdjskaki (talk · contribs) and checking for other 'ducks' also found the following

I'd ask for a check of possible sleeper accounts, but the edit filter stops 99% of their rubbish and anything which sneaks through is very quickly deleted (his last article to defeat the filter lasted 87 seconds) so I don't know whether it's worth CU time and effort, really.
