Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Fma12/Archive

Suspected sockpuppets
(this is back in April, remainder of diffs are within the past few days), Fma12 reverts me, IP reverted me,, ,. Shortly after importing a file I uploaded locally here to Commons, the IP made some edits to the file (see edit history at c:File:General motors logo with wordmark.svg) Both are also active on Commons as well as Wikipedia, but strongly suspect the IP is just Fma12 editing logged out. If the IP and the editor are the same, this would be a violation of WP:SOCK, and an attempt to circumvent WP:EW. I don't know the accounts belong to one person, but I strongly suspect it and evidence checkuser evidence would make this clearer. —Locke Cole • t • c 02:59, 7 July 2022 (UTC)


 * On my talk page (you can see the eentire discussion here) I explained to all of my edits about GM logos. I was not disruptive at all although the user thinks that copying a PD-text logo file to commons is forbiden and disruptive. Moreover, user Locke Cole has accused me of editing using sockpuppets with is totally wrong and libelous and I hope he apologize for that.
 * Any editor/admin can verify that I'm not behind IP 185.172.241.184 so I don't need to hide or fake my identity for editing or discussing. Do you consider this edit I made to one of the logos uploaded by the user does as a "disruptive edit"? My only mistake was to have removed the "keeplocal" tag. Fma12 (talk) 18:51, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

 * I'm not running a check, and I suggest this be closed on behavior. It is not too believable that Fma12, an editor from Argentina (per his user page) would be operating an IP in Poland which has lots of edits to the Polish and Russian wikipedias. The SPI is apparently part of a dispute involving 'keep local'. There should be an appropriate noticeboard or talk page where a dispute about 'keep local' could be aired. Marking for close.
