 * Comment. I saw their meta IPBE request (permalink). Qatariahmad (another alt which doesn't exist here) admitted they were a sock as well. I guess the original glock was because an admin on ar.wiki believes them to be a sockpuppet of an LTA named Ali Abu Omar (علي أبو عمر). Technically, whatever that LTA's original account was should be the master here. &#8211;  MJL &thinsp;‐Talk‐☖ 14:44, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Омар Али only became active after a previous sock, Ahmadqatari, was blocked and is now recreating drafts about the same subjects with their names being alternative spellings. Draft:Fkhrettin Altun is about Fahrettin Altun/Fakhreddin Altun; Draft:Yusuf Katipoglu is recreated in the same previously deleted draftspace; and the thrice-deleted Fahrettin Koca was recreated by this editor at Draft:Fkhrettin Koca. While this is a clear instance of WP:DUCK I am still requesting a CheckUser in case there are any other socks out there. GPL93 (talk) 14:47, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

 * You ready? CU confirmed to each other:, , , , , , and . Now, here's the fun part: and  are confirmed to each other, but not to your dude. Geolocation doesn't exclude their identity, but technically I can't make that call--you'll have to do that by connecting behavior, including that of Necati. And anyway, Necati is also globally blocked, so maybe it's of relatively little use. I'm also pinging  to express my regrets; she, in her typical fashion, was caring and helpful.

 * User:Ohnoitsjamie, the problem here is going to be what to call this. I just placed a bunch of CU blocks, pointing to this SPI. But who the real sockmaster is, I am not clear, and a whole bunch of these are already globally blocked, so someone knows more about this than I do. And Alex and Omar(s) may be different. Moreover, (who apparently does not get notifications?}} has blocked a couple of them with a CU block (which I "overrode" for the purpose of tagging), but they didn't leave any indication of a master. So the clerk may have their work cut out for them here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drmies (talk • contribs) 22:54, August 5, 2020 (UTC)
 * , that block is fine. If they keep persisting with more socks then you could hard block it. It is already heavy enough with socking so you could do that. There is someone socking at tr.wiki who looks to be the sockmaster. I've asked someone to look at this in both places in case there is something that we are missing. (I think your ping missed, so re-pinging him).
 * I was wondering the same thing, who to tag as the master (or, who is Sock Zero?) Likely either the same person or group of people behind all of them. OhNo itsJamie Talk 00:50, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * ,, I think I found it, thanks to a draft, Draft:Ali AL-Suleiman, that deleted. The relevant SPI is Sockpuppet investigations/علي أبو عمر--I knew a little bell was ringing when I found that username in Arabic when I ran CU. User:GSS, you just filed a report there for User:Mevlut Bin Omar.  and  are the most recent CUs who were on that case; it would be a good idea if either one of them would have a look at this one, maybe re-run CU and compare to their own data--which might also answer the question about Alex and Necati. Drmies (talk) 02:23, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks,, if there’s the possibility of cross-wiki socking in Arabic projects, you should probably talk to (Ala’a). I’ll also ping him off-wiki about this case. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:32, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

The article Ali Al Suleiman (Journalist) has been created today. It is a recreation of this article that was speedily deleted in August last year with indications of sock puppetry.

On 6 May this year I was contacted by an editor whose articles I’d reviewed, called User:Aliaboomar. When I looked on his user page I realised that he was the Ali Mahmoud Al Suleiman who had been the subject of the article deleted. I warned him to remove promotional links from his user page here.

The article Ali Al Suleiman (Journalist) has been created today by a new account, and if you look at all the refs in the article you will see that they’re the same as the links on this old version of Aliaboomar’s talk page. He removed them on 7 May after I warned him.

Based on this I believe the article Ali Al Suleiman (Journalist) is an autobiography and that its creator, User:Turkey1453turkey is a sockpuppet of User:Aliaboomar. Mccapra (talk) 17:46, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

 * How on earth did Ali Al Suleiman (journalist) get created in the first place? It looks like it was created by a long-term editor, which boggles my mind; I can't imagine how anyone would think the subject deserves an article without being asked to create it. Looking forward to salting it. OhNo itsJamie  Talk 13:20, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * @Ohnoitsjamie A couple of oddities here. One is that the un-disambiguated title Ali Al Suleiman was deleted and salted in 2019.  The other is that User:Silver seren discusses their reasons at Articles for deletion/Ali Al Suleiman (journalist).  I haven't yet figured out how all that relates to this SPI, however. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:51, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think Silverseren is a sock, they go too far back. Asked to create the article? Maybe. Frankly it's hard to imagine how an uninvolved editor would decide that person needed an article in Wikipedia. In any case, my question/comment is more about the general nuisance of this individual.

 * I see this editor has been blocked before the SPI crew had a chance take action on this filing. Typically that results in closing the case without further action but I'd like to appeal for confirmation that this is the same editor, just to keep a paper trail on his reappearances and so this account can be blocked as a sockpuppet/checkuser block. At this point, he is reaching out to other editors to write an article about him because the pages are protected and I expect this behavior to continue. When a blocked editor sets his sights on getting a bio on Wikipedia, they usually don't give up this pursuit very easily. Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read!

 * I see that they're trying to enforce "If I can't have my article then neither can that steward". Expect more of socks on the AfD. Pahunkat (talk) 14:17, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Indeed. While their argument has merit, the way they're going to a variety of editors that previous socks have interacted with isn't the way about it. I still think the puppetmaster is well-intentioned, but he has no idea how to approach Wikipedia, continues to attempt brute force even when warned, and with this kind of pettiness is certainly not helping himself.

 * Yup, thanks. I already put a link here about an example of his attacking to arwiki user who refuse to create the article (The user wrote that he received insults on his email from this LTA). Also I remember that he attacked a lot of times before. In fact, it's easy to prove this point, but I don't have time to see his 240 socks edits to prove that! Best -- Alaa  )..! 16:59, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Honestly, yes. His main intention, by routine, is to create a certain article on a subject that he believes is deserving of an article (while consensus is against it). No vandalism, no disruption, is intended IMO, just adding to the encyclopedia. Right or not, the intention seems good. And the same to "has no idea"; I said he continues to 'brute force' about Wikipedia, by which I mean 'does what he wants regardless of everyone else'. Maybe he's never bothered to read policy, but if that has been his approach from the very start, and ignoring other users is part of it, then warnings from other users aren't going to help. There's no doubt he's highly disruptive, but more by accident and/or ignorance than intention IMO. Until now, I hadn't seen any attacking, but knowing it discourages me from the thought that eventually he could have become a reformed valuable user. Kingsif (talk) 17:54, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

There were two or three more possible ranges one could compile from those data, but I chose the most obvious one. So in theory there's more that could be done, but in reality, I think we're done.

This user contacted me via email (i.e. off-Wiki) to request an article be created for Ali Al Suleiman, and later on-wiki (diff) to have Draft:Ortadoguhaberler.com resurrected. The former was created by User:علي أبو عمر, the sockmaster, and the latter by User:The Qatari Wikipedian, a confirmed sock account. The timescale of this tallies perfectly with the archived SPI, as does the MO of this user – Articles_for_deletion/Ali_Al_Suleiman_(journalist) has multiple comments referring to canvassing emails directly to editors.
