Narwhal90's edit was to !vote keep at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TanaCon: What Really Happened – that article was spammed by this farm (and, to my knowledge, only by this one). They then went on to create this rather spammy page after placing some cn tags to game autoconfirmed. They later found their way to Michael G. Weist, which was recently created by JakeDaMoonrat and also shows a bunch of telltale signs of UPE. Blablubbs | talk 11:58, 5 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Addendum: JakeDaMoonrat added. Blablubbs | talk 11:22, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Narwhal and User talk:Wishuknewdontu blocked as CU-confirmed, identical with Socialmedium11. Jake has nothing to do with this--from a technical point of view. Drmies (talk) 02:37, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

Created Michael G Weist III - this is a favoured target of this farm, and has been created multiple times in multiple locations by previously confirmed socks (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Other substantive edits focus on Weist and Tana Mongeau, another favoured target.

Unsure of the utility of CheckUser here as I'm not familiar with the case, will leave that to others. firefly ( t · c ) 10:25, 10 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Michael G Weist III appears substantially similar to the version of Michael G. Weist created by . Based on that and the singular focus on promoting this individual (including xwiki, which seems to be a new development; I'll be requesting a lock), looks like a duck to me. - please indef the sock. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 03:11, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Thanks. Tagged as proven,, closing. And courtesy ping to who's asked me to keep him in the loop about spam on frwiki (the account was created there). :) Spicy (talk) 21:53, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping, @Spicy. User blocked on fr-wp and page created deleted. Best, —  Jules*  Talk 22:31, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Very strange behavior for a new account: They added a bunch of Citation Needed tags, added Michael Weist and Michael G Weist III to the Article Rescue Squadron list and started a talk page for a 2015 AfD. Interestingly enough, previously caused disruption around the Weist articles and was blocked for sockpuppetry. Coincidence? –dlthewave ☎ 05:58, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

 * - 14th edit was to ARS requesting assistance in rescuing Michael Weist / Michael G Weist III. 15th was to the talkpage of the AFD in which the original article was deleted. Quack. CU for confirmation and sleeper check. --Jack Frost (talk) 12:37, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

I do not know who this Ashlynn user is - i was making countless edits, multiple pages (one got declined), and yet my page was deleted and now I am under investigations when I am spending a lot of time and energy - I do not know who that is and but I do know it isn't me. Additionally, I was not aware of the page titled Michael G Weist - i searched for previous articles at creation. I simply pulled data from available resources - even imported charts from articles in other languages. Uppertoots 09:16, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
