 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

He has edited Wikipedia for only 6 times in the past 2 years (see his contributions here), then he wrote a section to defend a user and attack 2 other users. Link to his edit here. He knew who User:ברוקולי is without editing in Wikipedia for a really long time. I'm almost sure he's a sockpuppet of someone, and if not then I'm really sorry for writing this.

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' I would like to say something of myself. Ch1902 said in Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement that he makes his contributions in commons. I went there, and found this, meaning only 5 edits in the last 7 months. This is clearly does not coincide with his statement. Broccolo (talk) 21:44, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

I don't know what to say other than I'm not a sockpuppet, and believe me I already thoroughly regret daring to speak up with an outside opinion. The accusations and bad faith from some users is not a surprise at all. I already explained at AE why I don't contribute much here and how I came by. The latest P-I flare up spilled over to Commons recently and  and  and, I have those pages and the talk pages of several of those editors watched here because of map, category and upload warring. The two files that caused the problems were deleted yesterday and today, both were on my watchlist. Not to mention the dozens of articles I read here almost daily, including the weekly Signpost, DYK and ITN. I wasn't aware there was a limit on contributions to the free encylopaedia anyone can edit before you're entitled to speak, I'll have to remember that. I was going to spend some time over the Christmas holidays back contributing to Commons, but I won't bother now I know the worth of my contributions. —  ₪₪  ch1902   ₪₪  22:25, 12 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Just a note for Someone35 that, given the current interpretation of his topic ban, if he does want to provide additional evidence, he should probably do so by email, not by further editing this SPI case. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 04:01, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * Um... Someone35, can you give us any actual evidence of socking, or perhaps an indication who the master is? There's no way I'm taking action on such speculation. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 03:32, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not allowed to comment on the editor that I suspect he's the sockmaster, but see who he defended in his edits in AE (nableezy) and who he attacked (broccoli), so it's either nableezy or his friends or an enemy of broccoli. Can't you check if 2 users have the same IP or you need to check each user manually? Oops, I just read Demiurge's comment, I'll send you this by E-mail--  Someone35  12:17, 13 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Without any formal evidence of abuse, and no socks to compare to, there is nothing to do here. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  11:34, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
