How strange that Boomgaylove would show such an "Interest in Bay Area, California geography articles" Obuibo Mbstpo (talk) 19:54, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you stay out of all sock puppetry related pages because it is highly likely that your involvement will be viewed as disruptive. For your own good, and to help my unblock stick, I recommend you go edit an article. Jehochman Talk 20:03, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Checkuser results

[edit]

W-i-k-i-l-o-v-e-r-1-5 W-i-k-i-l-o-v-e-r-1-7 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) was brought to my attention earlier today. After reviewing their contributions, I decided there was enough evidence to link the account with Cholga (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and filed an RFCU. The result came back as "likely" for that account and several others, including IHate2BeAnonymous (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log), an obvious play on ILike2BeAnonymous (talk · contribs), a user who has butted heads with Boomgaylove in all her incarnations. Only the first account is active, and none of the accounts have been blocked yet, so I thought I'd put it here for anyone who has this case on their watchlist to review. --jonny-mt 07:29, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Check that--they've now been blocked courtesy of User:Lucasbfr. --jonny-mt 10:29, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So how about W-i-k-i-l-o-v-e-r-1-7? (Maybe you need to be on the lookout for any usernames in the form W-i-k-i-l-o-v-e-r-1-n?). +ILike2BeAnonymous (talk) 17:16, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Never mind; I see that one's already on the list. +ILike2BeAnonymous (talk) 17:34, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That...would be a typo on my part >.< --jonny-mt 03:02, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
While you're at it, you might add Hdshrnkr to the list of suspected sockpuppets (they edited the Martinez, California article mostly, one that was near and dear to the heart of Cholga, with many of the same errors made by that editor. +ILike2BeAnonymous (talk) 17:28, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'll take a closer look, but given that they didn't show up in the very recent checkuser, I'd have to say the odds are very low that they're related. --jonny-mt 14:49, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another one: I notice that Carritotito has been pretty active lately. I'm 100% positive that this is the same sockpuppeteer/sockpuppet as these other ones. (They're on the suspected list, but not confirmed.) Anyone who can run a checkuser on them? +ILike2BeAnonymous (talk) 07:06, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This account was marked as "likely" on the original Checkuser request. It seems they just started editing today after being inactive since March 10. --jonny-mt 13:53, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've indef blocked Carriotito as a Qrc2006/Boomgaylove/... sock, per the likely checkuser result, their editing pattern and particularly this edit. Gwernol 17:36, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
