 * [Response to Special:diff/899441180] yes, of course.
 * Similarity between the account and the IPs is continuously addition of unsourced content exclusively pictures to Iran-related articles (exclusively footbal, politic and military figures) with similar way. Please see the status of this history which that fulfilled by mass unsourced edits. this one, this one, this one and this one all are edits of one person on that article. He has uploaded hundreds pictures on Wikimedia Commons and then added them to articles via IPs. This one, this one and this one are other three examples.
 * He can't respect the block and always has tried to evasion the sanctions. in Februrary 2019, User:Hhkohh asked GTVM92: Why did you create sock Cyrus9595 (talk · contribs) while your main account is still blocked? and GTVM92 responded: I can't live without edits and uploads.
 * If you want to say anything to me, please ping me. Thanks. Benyamin-ln (talk) 21:55, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I also suspected to because of similar behavior of such edits in Persian Wikipedia. Ignoring the alerts is the other similarity of these accounts. Benyamin-ln (talk) 22:30, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I added 5 other IPs. Benyamin-ln (talk) 20:42, 4 June 2019 (UTC)


 * User:GTVM92 is now active in Fawiki. Please contact Fawiki checkusers via checkuser mailing list for a cross-wiki check. Benyamin-ln (talk) 15:33, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * latest edit of GTVM92 on FaWiki occurred on 3 June 2019. Benyamin-ln (talk) 23:25, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this. Sir Sputnik (talk) 02:18, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
 * - There's a fair amount of overlap between Amin marin and GTVM92 across a variety of subjects, enough to arouse suspicion. Please check to confirm Sir Sputnik (talk) 01:21, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , what accounts do you want ran? The gadget is only showing one non-stale account. TonyBallioni (talk) 22:20, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I could have sworn there was something to check against. I'll move this back into the open queue for now, and ping if I find it. Sir Sputnik (talk) 23:23, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Looks like it moved to stale at around 6am UTC this morning, so after you endorsed. Sorry that none of us got to it :/ TonyBallioni (talk) 23:32, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
 * If you had pinged me before it went stale, I would have looked into it. I've seen GTVM92's data, but it was a while ago.  This doesn't seem like a technical match to me, but how would I really know?  It's been three months.   do you think you could compare these accounts (Amin marin and GTVM92) on fa.wiki?  By the way:
 * ✅ only to :
 * Most of these accounts haven't edited English Wikipedia. Sleepers, maybe? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 19:43, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * User:NinjaRobotPirate: Done. I can confirm User:Amin marin and User:Giron Zarakis are the same but there's no data on User:GTVM92 in Persian Wikipedia either. Ladsgroupoverleg 21:13, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

 * I have the puppets of Amin marin. Primefac (talk) 03:44, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Amin marin was not blocked, I have fixed that. I'll make a new case for those accounts in a bit. are you confirming Giron Zarakis in your capacity as Persian Checkuser, or is that a comment based on behaviour? Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 15:25, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I do confirm on my CU role that these two are the same. Ladsgroupoverleg 15:28, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks, . The oldest account in this group is one which has not edited enwiki, and as noted, several of the other confirmed accounts also have not. In that case I'm electing not to create a separate case. If a clerk disagrees they can go for it, there wouldn't be any harm in doing so, I just don't think there would be much benefit either. Closing. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 23:40, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Salah caught my attention when adding dailymail here, their excessive edit count in just under a month and with all their edits to another users space: user:Tommieboi/bishops User:Tommieboi/Centenarians, User:Tommieboi/Nonagenarian where SCUTI85 and another sock habitually edited. They share the same overlapping interests with death lists/recent deaths and both editors consistently have the same tags (Mobile edit Mobile web edit Advanced mobile edit) etc... (here's the full list of overlap with SCUTI) And while I know edits elsewhere aren't really considered, it's worth noting that both SCUTI and Salah are editors of fawiki where they share more overlap. Also per your request. Praxidicae (talk) 16:45, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
 * There's also an even larger overlap with LABSJAY who I assume is related somehow to all of these other cases. Praxidicae (talk) 16:51, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

GTVM92 isn't blocked on Commons. There, they uploaded File:Pouri Banayi 13970619000020636721371151735795 67748 (cropped).jpg. One minute after the upload, 178.131.239.113 added it to Pouri Banayi. Same thing happened in the article Saeed Namaki; 178.131.239.113 added the lead photo to the article just one minute after it was uploaded on Commons by GTVM92. I know that IPs can't publicly be linked to accounts using CheckUser, but I think this is a WP:DUCK case and using CheckUser isn't needed anyways. Ahmadtalk 22:04, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
