Evidence submitted by Rami R
All users have repeatedly inserted unsourced and often false information, specifically to the Meir Dagan article. User:Dhall100067 is currently block over this.

Further more, User:Dhall10067 created Douglas Eivind Hall (speedy deleted). Same as User:Douglaseivindhall and similar to User:Dhall10067 usernames.  Rami  R  09:48, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Blocked indef. per WP:DUCK. Before this account was set up, the sockmaster had already been warned and his block reset; I have therefore reset it again and extended it to one month. JohnCD (talk) 10:01, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Note: alerted me to this message saying that Douglas wanted to use  and had scrambled all his other passwords. So I have transferred Dhall10067's temporary block to that account and indef-blocked Dhall10067 and also the newly-declared . JohnCD (talk) 21:59, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

seems to be dealt with then, closing. SpitfireTally-ho! 12:32, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Administrators' noticeboard/Archive253; this has been going on since 2005 (at least), with some socks identified and blocked in 2010. It now turns out that this has continued until now, with User:J341933 blocked today by me, and User:Bitachonalim blocked a few months ago for the same reason. It seems probable that this user has more socks and sleepers lying around, with User:Wariswronggodisfaith as the most obvious suspect: he has edited the exact same articles that other socks here have edited, e.g. William Eivind Hall (note the name similarity to the case master), Fredric N. Busch (created by User:J341933, while the current redirect Fredric Busch was originally created by sock User:Semasa in 2006). He also made similar identical nonsense edits about the same BLP as the other socks in this case, e.g. here. Considering the number of socks, I would like a checkuser to find the more hidden ones as well, if possible. Fram (talk) 07:19, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Are the two suspected socks indeed the same editor, and the same as User:Bitachonalim though? Or is something else going on? Thanks! Fram (talk) 12:46, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Except for J341933, every account is stale for CU purposes. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:00, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I thougt you could go back 3 months, but I haven't really checked the CU rules and limitations. Thanks for checking! Fram (talk) 13:09, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

 * There are no sleepers to report, and since every other account is, no technical connections can be made. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 12:38, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Everybody is already blocked. Closing. Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:11, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

More extensive attempts to add information about Douglas Eivind Hall, including this and this. There are many more: a simple perusal of RECACTED will provide the needed evidence. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:00, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

Quite a long-term issue, this: 21August1968 has been adding Douglas Eivind Hall to Douglas Hall, which I see is a pattern of behaviour that goes back a long way, including. Attempts to remove other entries for people by the same name, as in, are also typical. bonadea contributions talk 16:10, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Adding an IP who is very obviously the same user:, (the "poet and prophet" designation has also been used repeatedly by previous socks and IPs). --bonadea contributions talk 16:12, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Adding another IP. Woshiyiweizhongguoren (🇨🇳) 17:41, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' I was a reporter of the socks but not the master here, but my report got deleted because it was a duplicate. Just thought this was worth mentioning, so yeah.

 * Also, Check User probably won't work here, because every archived sock is stale. <b style="color:#00205B">Woshiyiwei</b><b style="color:#0077C0">zhongguo</b><b style="color:#00205B">ren</b> (<b style="color:#0077C0">🇨🇳</b>) 00:01, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Both the IP and account were given temporary blocks for disruptive editing. <b style="color:#00205B">Woshiyiwei</b><b style="color:#0077C0">zhongguo</b><b style="color:#00205B">ren</b> (<b style="color:#0077C0">🇨🇳</b>) 15:00, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Declining request for CU; there's no need given the obvious evidence...  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   19:20, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
 * The accused sock account has been indefinitely blocked and tagged, the IP range blocked for two weeks, and the other IP left as-is until more recent edits are reported from the range. This SPI can be closed.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   19:24, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
