 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

Apart from the obvious similarity in names, most of these accounts have been involved in vandalism at Neopolitan Business Park. The only exception is User:Clarence baladjay 3, which has no contributions so far, but was created just two minutes before User:Clarence Baladjay 15. See Special:ListUsers/Clarence baladjay and Special:ListUsers/Clarence Baladjay. The first two accounts have already been blocked for vandalism. I have not notified the accused, as I believe a notification would only lead to further disruption, based on. – PartTimeGnome (talk&#160;| contribs) 01:17, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

All blocked. Looks like we'll have to play whack-a-mole. No chance of a rangeblock. Elockid  ( Talk ) 14:14, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm not really sure what I'm looking at here. All of the above have made similar facetious comments at Articles for deletion/Charles Baladjay, edited one-another's user- and talk-pages in similar ways and generally shown duckish behaviour - I don't know whether this is a sockfarm, a meatfarm or just an unrelated group of young editors messing about...

Kj plma is OK - the oldest account (17 Feb, over 200 edits) and has made some constructive edits; his only contribution to this mess was a sensible "delete" !vote in the AfD. I think the rest are just kids playing about. I have deleted all their nonsense and given some "Stop messing about" warnings; we probably won't hear from them again.

Unfortunately, there appears to be more going on here. The following are quite the same person -they are using the same IP/computer within minutes of each other:

The user name CBljay is one strong indication. The account's only edits are to vandalise a school article that has subsequently been vandalised by two very obvious Clarence baladjay socks. bonadea contributions talk 07:30, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Adding the two other socks in question for completeness' sake. User:Clarence baladjay 10 and User:Clarence baladjay 11 are already blocked. --bonadea contributions talk 08:02, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

And now User:Clarence baladjay 12 (reported to WP:AIV) --bonadea contributions talk 13:21, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

 * These socks are obvious, but I'd like a check to see if there are any more in the drawer. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 15:46, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅ that the 3 socks belong to CBljay. Not much we can do further. - Mailer Diablo 14:16, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * And with that, closing another one. Thanks. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 14:20, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Obvious sock based on the user name and the fact that he immediately started vandalising Lagro High School. A check for more accounts would be useful, given previous behaviour. bonadea contributions talk 08:16, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

I didn't find any sleepers. But I did find while digging around a bit. Elockid  ( Talk ) 17:00, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

Obvious sock, looking at the username (a previous sock was User:Noemi Baladjay) and focus on Lagro High School (with a frivolous AfD). See also this edit and compare with this from the original account. bonadea contributions talk 08:01, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

Adding User:Noemi baladjay 3. If evidence apart from the name is needed, compare this (by Nb3) and this (by one of the earliest socks) --bonadea contributions talk 14:40, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
