Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Same topic area (Ror). Similar user ID. Seems to be a case of WP:DUCK. Requesting CU. Fylindfotberserk (talk) 17:36, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • They're looking pretty  Likely to me, and taking the time of creation and the editing history into account, I'm tagging as proven. Blocked. The page is already semi protected, I'm not sure there's been enough recent disruption to justify raising the protection level at present. Feel free to ask for a 2nd opinion at RfPP.

Same editing area (Ror; Neeraj Chopra; Teontha, Kaitha). Similar addition of kshatriya/warrior caste POV in the article [3] [4] [5]. Substantial interaction for a few day old sock [6]. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:12, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Same large country. Not much else that technically links.  Possible. Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 15:00, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pink clock Awaiting administrative action - despite the lukewarm CU result, I think the behavioural evidence is strong enough to block Kaithal as a suspected sock. Within only a handful of edits they are making similar edits emphasizing caste on Neeraj Chopra [7][8][9][10], editing the same obscure village article whose only substantial edits have been from Anujror socks [11], and inserting the same POV on Ror (caste) as noted in the filing.

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Edits concern mostly the Rors' ancestry and people with the surname Ror, except for Draft:KC Seedpuriya. Examples include [12], their own userpage, Draft:Rahul Turan, and Draft:Ancestral North India (deleted per G12, like four revisions of Draft:Rahul Turan). Grammar and spelling are mediocre, and the username means "Anuj Ror Haryana" in Hindi. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 16:24, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Diffs: [13] − by confirmed sockpuppet 'User:Chaudhary of Haryana' and [14] - by the User:अनुज रोड़ हरियाणा, are very similar, and considering the user name and the editing area, it seems like a WP:DUCK. - 117.201.113.82 (talk) 10:13, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • The behaviour makes this look pretty likely to be related. CU makes this technically  Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely). Given those two I've blocked as a suspected sock. Closing. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:32, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Diffs linked for each username: Anuj Choudhary Ror and Rudradaman127 making the same edit, similar edits back in 2022 from 103.48.65.132. All three have been editing similar pages: 103.48.65.132 and Anuj Choudhary Ror both editing Rohri, with Rudradaman127 having the exact same agenda as them without ever editing the page. Also see the interaction timeline, with no overlap between the timing of their edits. (Roundish ⋆t) 14:37, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Rudradaman127 @103.48.65.132 ,I don't know who they are, I have nothing to do with them, may be they are same editing guy because they are writing truth and erasing lies that's why they look alike and to you they are same -seems to be related

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

I believe I've encountered two sockpuppets associated with this case, both reverting to restore the edits made by User:Anuj Choudhary Ror to Iron pillar of Delhi. I had undone that editor's changes because they were harmful, and only later found that they were a blocked sockpuppet. The accounts I am now reporting are:

  • @Klastoy Well, I just reverted your one edit at the Iron Pillar page with an explanation that sourced content was removed, nothing else, and expect this undo. I didn't revert any edits of previous editors or socks that you're mentioning here, and yes, I made more than 4000 edits on old pages and new pages without knowing their creators just to improve all articles, nothing else. you can check my all previous history of edits.

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Exact same interest in the niche topic of creating articles on clans (sub-castes) of the Gurjar caste in India (also covered under WP:CASTE sanctions). The writing, referencing styles etc. are the same as well, see for e.g. Baniya (clan) and Vania clan by the sock and Hun clan and Tomar Gurjar (clan) by the master.

While the connection of these accounts is pretty apparent asking for CU to further verify this and see if this is part of a previous CASTE-based sock network. Gotitbro (talk) 17:53, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Another SPI has been opened regarding the sock (relaying apprehensions that the sock is indeed a part of a past network): Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Bensebgli. Gotitbro (talk) 03:47, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Similar to Fancy vibēs, O Chawal is also editing pages related to Gurjar castes, Turkish dynasties, and Muslim tribes. Both users prefer to edit similar topics and have created hoax articles associating certain dynasties with Gurjars. For instance, Fancy vibēs added Gurjara words to the Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty page here, while O Chawal created the Pratihara (clan) article and inserted the same Gurjar POV information. These actions mirror those of Fancy vibēs and previous socks. Both of them have edited many same pages.

Additionally, the edit summaries of both users are similar, including words such as Rmv (Diff1, Diff2), inclusion (Diff3, Diff4, Diff5, Diff6), colonial era ((Diff7, Diff8) and Good faith (Diff9, Diff10). O Chawal also removed content from caste-related articles by referencing the WP:RAJ essay in the summary, a tactic similar to Fancy vibēs (Diff11, Diff12).

O Chawal requested protection for the Pratihara (clan) page at WP:RFPP, emulating the actions of Fancy Vibes, who had done the same for the Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty.(Diff13, Permlink)

Fancy Vibes nominated Dewal Pratiharas for deletion, and O Chawal added a delete vote in the AfD. – DreamRimmer (talk) 12:27, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Clerk endorsed - Please, compare those three accounts. Vanjagenije (talk) 01:16, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've taken a look at these, and I'd be inclined to say  Inconclusive due to proxy use, but given the level of behavioural evidence presented I'll leave it as endorsed for another CU with a stronger grasp on proxies than me to take a look at. Girth Summit (blether) 12:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some separation going on, but I don't think it's proxies. I'd say O chawal is very  Likely to Fancy vibēs, while HorseRiderr borders on  Confirmed, and behaviour seals the deal (notes on cuwiki). Moving to Anujror, blocking (no TPA since we just had a revocation for FV), tagging, closing. --Blablubbs (talk) 13:25, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Fancy vibēs created their account in February 2022 but began editing on 2 October, 2023, making over 2,200 edits in just 20 days. Fancy vibēs recreated the Hun (clan) (Hun clan) page, which was previously created by masters User:Johnbendenz and User:Bensebgli. Additionally, Fancy vibēs created other Gurjar clan articles using Javed Rahi's books as sources, following a similar approach to that of master Bensebgli's socks,User:Oku Ali and User:أسامة بن عبد الله وليد, who previously created similar Gurjar POV-pushing articles on subjects like Maitrak, Pratihara clan, Kushan clan, and Chalukiya, among others. 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 05:29, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fancy Vibēs created an article titled 'Tomar Gurjar (clan)' and asserted in that article that 'Prominent rulers, such as "Anangpal I Gurjar" of the Tomara dynasty and "Man Singh Tomar Gujar" of the Tomaras of Gwalior, belonged to the Tomar Gurjar clan.' However, in the main articles (Tomaras of Gwalior and Tomara dynasty), it is stated that 'The Tomaras of Gwalior (also referred to as Tomar in modern vernaculars due to schwa deletion) were Rajput,' and 'The Tomara dynasty belonged to the Tomar clan of the Rajputs.' Fancy Vibēs has created numerous other hoax articles about South Indian castes (WP:GSCASTE), much like Master User:Bensebgli and User:Johnbendenz. They are attempting to introduce Gurjar POV into the articles by citing books authored by Gurjar writer Javaid Rahi as their source. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:25, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
They've recently made changes to the dynasties in WP:GSCASTE articles, by removing other dynasties and introducing the Gurjar caste. See here. – DreamRimmer (talk) 02:37, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by other users[edit]

WP:Duck, apart from the glaring evidences raised above which includes using non-reliable Javed Rahi as a source, they are also citing Rahul Khari just like previous socks. Abecedare is not around from last few months, who is familiar with this sockfarm as well. Re Pa©ker&Tra©ker (♀) 05:34, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

→ Further, I am pinging User:Doug Weller who caught User:Hanshingling earlier this year, to quickly take a look and issue the necessary block as it is apparently another case of ducking. Re Pa©ker&Tra©ker (♀) 05:42, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Similar interest in Gujjar clan editing, in particular restoring content created by a sockpuppet at Solankis. Kokaabi's pattern of speech appears very similar to recently-blocked sock User:Fancy vibēs, compare Special:Diff/1184990546 to Special:Diff/1197986736. In addition to having linguistic quirks in common, this comment from Kokaabi suggests a far wider familiarity with Wikipedia policy than could be explained by their own editing history. signed, Rosguill talk 18:15, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
