 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

I have indef blocked Chansep2009 as a total Duck sockpuppet. I don't intend to say what the evidence is, per WP:BEANS, but a few minutes' investigation of the editing history left me in no doubt whatsoever. I am starting this SPI, however, because of suspicions about TheGoldenHunter7. So far this account's only editing has been posting a rather obscure message at User talk:Chansep2009 and subsequently blanking that page. The message seems to imply that the same user has been around before, and that Chansep2009 is supposed to realise who it is. Blanking talk pages was also a persistent feature of both Chansep2009's and Ashleyleggat404's editing. It looks as though TheGoldenHunter7 is either a sockpuppet of either the same user or another user known to Ashleyleggat404/Chansep2009. I would be grateful for a checkuser to check this, and also to look for possible sleepers. The Chansep2009 account was created on 28 June 2011, but scarcely ever used until Ashleyleggat404 was blocked on 17 September, so sleepers are a definite possibility.

 * - It's likely there's some connection here, so I'll endorse to figure out what. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:10, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Ostensibly, is technically ❌, however I am strongly inclined to believe that a proxy was used.

The following accounts are ✅ as relating to each other: ...along with: I'm willing to block all these via the Checkuser interface if clerks are happy. WilliamH (talk) 14:31, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Blocked the lot and the one unrelated per WP:DUCK. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  14:51, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Noppy's editing has been entirely on pages which Ashleyleggat404 and various sockpuppets have edited, including one created by an Ashleyleggat404 sockpuppet. (Note: I am still checking the editing history. There may be more to come.) JamesBWatson (talk) 19:03, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Update: I have found only one more possible sockpuppet, and for that one the evidence is so slight that I think asking for a checkuser would be close to fishing, so I will leave it in MuZemike's capable hands. JamesBWatson (talk) 19:15, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Another update: I have blocked Noppy. The behavioural evidence was strongly suggestive, and that combined with the checkuser "likely" result is enough. JamesBWatson (talk) 19:20, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
