  • I'm familiar with this case as I'm the blocking admin for the sockpuppeteer account. I'll have a look into this.--5 albert square (talk) 12:01, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK I've had a look into this, similar names and from the edits  Looks like a duck to me. Blocked as a duck and tagged, I've had a look through the pages targeted and I cannot see any other editor that's an obvious sock so I don't think there's anything else SPI can do here.--5 albert square (talk) 12:26, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets

Seems like the same block evasion as before, editing articles such as Kulhaiya, Azad Academy and Haroon Rashid Ghafil, and linking others to them.

Zsaeditor is repeating Sonashaskew's idiosyncratic behaviour of adding ref tags with a single wikilink inside. (1, 2). Both suspect sockpuppets are starting a lot of sentences with "Actually..." (1, 2) All three editors have added unsourced, positive material about people with the name "Haque". (1, 2, 3). McGeddon (talk) 09:58, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Clerk endorsed per the behavioral evidence provided. Mike V • Talk 04:17, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Zsaeditor is  Likely to the master, Ddzzazz is  Possible to the master and other account. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 04:49, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, CheckUser says Zsaeditor is likely, and Ddzzazz is possible, and my investigation of behavioural evidence says Zsaeditor is likely, and Ddzzazz is possible, so I shall block Zsaeditor. For the moment, I am leaving Ddzzazz, but there certainly is some evidence against that account, and I am leaving this investigation open for a while, in case any other administrator can make a more definite decision on it, or any other editor can provide more evidence.

  • Hasn't edited since Jan. 6th, so let's revisit this if Ddzzazz comes back and provides more evidence. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 16:52, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Block evasion; editing the same articles as previous socks and now openly reverting past cleanup of block evasion by the master account. McGeddon (talk) 20:20, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Only edits have been to directly revert two pieces of six-month-old block evasion cleanup related to this sockpuppeteer (1, 2). Similar "Sonash" username. McGeddon (talk) 18:01, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
