Suspected sockpuppets
There is a vandal haunting articles about Conan, creating made-up plot summaries. Most of their IPs have been blocked. Blocked IP, older IP, current IP, new IP. Please block their current IPs as well - preferably with a rangeblock. The range starting with 2600:1003 would be a good start, if that wouldn't have too much impact - there's several of those blocked already.

Other edits include blocked IP, old IP, previous IP, new IP. LordKulgur (talk) 15:32, 22 June 2023 (UTC) (updated with new examples.LordKulgur (talk) 07:23, 23 June 2023 (UTC))

 * blocked as the most recently used IP address of the user currently blocked as 2600:1003:b12c:66e0::/64 . I haven't looked at the others; this was just a quick measure to stop the most obvious block evasion. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 05:35, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The evidence is insufficient regarding . ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:44, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * is stale (last edited 1 year 8 months ago.) ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:30, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * is an obvious sock of 2600:1003:b12c:66e0::/64 . /64 blocked for 2 years. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:34, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The page overlap and timing of 's contributions suggest that it's used by the same person as 2600:1003:b12c:66e0::/64. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:36, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 's edits have at least been disruptive enough to justify a block independently of whether they're actually the same person. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:39, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 2600:1003:b100::/42 (or /40 if we include 2600:1003:B1A1:5D1A:F977:B3F:60E9:E5E8) is too busy for a rangeblock; I suggest requesting an edit filter blocking the /40 from editing Conan-related articles. Ping ; closing. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:42, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Edits made by the original IP: 1, 2. Similar edits made by their new IP: 3, 4. There are many similarities, but inventing a crocodile-infested marsh/snake-infested river is one of the signs. There is nothing like either in the story. LordKulgur (talk) 06:36, 6 July 2024 (UTC)


 * New IP used by the vandal. Old edit: 5. New edit: 6.LordKulgur (talk) 19:10, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

 * 2600:1003:b100:0:0:0:0:0/40 looks too busy for a rangeblock. I've blocked 2600:1003:B106:1829:1910:2DB7:9CFC:C986/64 and protected some pages; I think protection requests at RFPP will be more productive for stopping this specific kind of disruption where it has happened before.
