 * I blocked the master and the two socks per WP:DUCK. Recommend tagging as confirmed. Marking for close. EdJohnston (talk) 16:02, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , I'm confused – confirmed tags are usually reserved for socks on which CU was run and returns technically indistinguishable results. Since CU was never run here, my inclination would be to just tag them as suspected. Is there something I'm missing? Blablubbs&#124;talk 16:06, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Obvious indeed, they overlap with the master on every one of the few pages they've edited ( etc.); the likelihood of that being coincidental is very close to zero. – please block the sock indefinitely. Thanks and best,  Blablubbs&#124;talk 14:46, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

 * - Pretty confident is them – there is extensive overlap for Melllsi, including on drafts, which is often a red flag . Duck-blocked twice now, so requesting CU for sleepers and to see if there's an IP we can block. Thanks. --Blablubbs&#124;talk 14:03, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

The master account created Draft:Timo Flloko before being blocked. This account has now created Timo Flloko, which is identical to the draft, in article space. The most likely explanation is that they have the same feathers. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:45, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

 * - It's not just the Timo Flloko articles, but other significant overlap too. Similar timecards.  But, what bothers me is that Derwishi10 was mostly on mobile; the others, much less mobile, so it's worth CU looking under the covers. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:33, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

A certain Topsiii has been created recently to try to reverse the same editions as the known sockpuppet, 1 2 despite the fact that the original sockpuppet continues to be blocked, it continues to insist on repeatedly re-adding the dual nationalities of other already deceased actresses to which some IPs the had previously removed, same duck.

UPGRADE:

Apparently Topsiii left a message through Teahouse with the same intention of creating the article of a certain Kathleen Mulqueen as a draft that he has a draft saved there, see summary for more information: here. 148.101.37.154 (talk) 00:09, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment - Topsii copy-pasted Draft:Kathleen Mulqueen to Kathleen Mulqueen. The draft was the work of the blocked sockpuppet GLMD12345.  Robert McClenon (talk) 14:27, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * , no need for CU. Also deleted a bunch of pages under G5, and tagged a few more. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:19, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

New account immediately starting to create articles with infoboxes, reflists, and sections, about Turkish and Albanian actors. Specific overlaps: Draft:Arif Diren, previously created by blocked sock and see also the logs for Arif Diren ; Zija Grapshi, created by Lovingheartloving, previously created by blocked sock  while Draft:Zija Grapshi was created by the sockmaster  and edited by, another blocked sock ; Gökçe Akyıldız, edited by blocked socks Woopi71010, King1010, Topsiii, and now by Lovingheartloving ; Vito Kapo (a politician, for a change) edited by blocked sock Melllsi and now by Lovingheartloving. bonadea contributions talk 10:55, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

Likely another sock. See overlap with the previous socks on Gökçe Akyıldız and posting similar messages at WP:TEAHOUSE as the previous socks. Also created Eleni Qirici with very similar content to the sock that was blocked only last week. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 18:01, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

Editing patterns are identical (i.e. creating pages for little known bit part actresses) e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Barbara_Chilcott&oldid=1050920141, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Charmienne_Harker&oldid=1054524826, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Donald_Elson&oldid=1057286937 Jkaharper (talk) 14:34, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

I suspect that some or all of these accounts belong to Sockpuppet investigations/Derwishi10, so I've requested a CU to sort it out. Also,, please fix Roskou as no such account exists under that spelling.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:25, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. --Jkaharper (talk) 18:29, 30 November 2021 (UTC)


 * - they basically admitted to operating these accounts here, but the behaviour does look similar to Derwishi10 (creation of articles on non-notable actresses, interest in Albanian topics). Please compare against the non-stale accounts in that case, and check for others. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 05:48, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
 * - -- RoySmith (talk) 15:23, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
 * - All of these are ✅ to from Sockpuppet investigations/Derwishi10.  Wokipoki is only tagged as proven, but the 10 September 2021 notes say they are confirmed to, who in turn is confirmed to Derwishi10.  I'll merge the cases and finish up the blocking/tagging once I've done that. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:35, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Blocked/tagged.  -- RoySmith (talk) 15:43, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Moving to checked so somebody can look at the IP before closing. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:45, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. The range looks to have been used exclusively or near-exclusively by Derwishi10 since at least April.  - please block the range for 3 months (anon-only, account creation blocked). Thanks, Spicy (talk) 02:02, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅.--Bbb23 (talk) 03:11, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Well that's easier said than done. Most of the behaviour patterns between the master sock and all their subsequent accounts were picked up because of their page creations. I can't find any of these historic diffs because all their newly created articles were deleted once they were confirmed as sockpuppets. Here is a current one . Can you access the historic ones because I can't? Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 20:16, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * -, you must present evidence in the form of diffs, at least one for the suspected puppet and one of a previously blocked sock. Bbb23 (talk) 20:00, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I took a look and I think there is enough evidence to suspect that Ingkaa is Derwishi10. They created an article about an Albanian woman which is a common interest of Derwishi10 - see sock creations such as Monika Lubonja, Draft:Irini Qirjako, Eva Alikaj etc. They have an interest in the birth and death dates of actors and the tone of this edit summary  is similar to these from an IP previously blocked as Derwishi10 .  - to check for other accounts given the history. Previous accounts are stale but I think log data might be useful in this case. Thanks,   Spicy (talk) 23:23, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
