 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

Strange behavior by these accounts. The user appears to create an account, use it for a day or two, and then move on to another account. I'm not certain why they feel the need to do this because I'm not sure they're doing much wrong (but they do always make sure to embed spam links to a book by Mary Moran, and they may be creating non-notable articles; I'd have to know more about camogie.) These accounts came to my attention because some of them are making the same typos - for instance, Balou Vogue created this page while Theresa Rooney created this one, and they both have Mary Moran improperly formatted (extra brackets) in the reflist. I'm hoping to get this person to use a single account instead of their current behavior.  Ja Ga  talk 17:13, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

✅ that and  are the same. Yola Mistress is a match. The others are. TN X Man 17:38, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Would it be worth doing a sweep? I'd guess that there are other active accounts as well (for instance, User:StAnthony's Prayers looks awfully familiar). -- Ja Ga  talk 17:44, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Sweep, with no other accounts showing up on the range used for Theresa Rooney and Balou Vogue. with regards to StAnthony's Prayers, because I see little behavioural correlation; and in any case, that account didn't appear on the range, so, without actually running a check, it also appears technically .

 * I have indefinitely blocked Theresa Rooney, Balou Vogue, and Yola Mistress as sockpuppets based on technical evidence. I have also blocked Maire O'Leary based on overwhelming behavioral evidence. I took no action against StAnthony's Prayers because this doesn't seem to be the same person. I've also taken no action against Camogie History, since JaGa has stated an intent to get the person to stick with a single account, and that editor's actions don't otherwise seem worthy of sanction. --  At am a  頭 19:08, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
