 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

Apparent sock-puppet vote-stacking at Articles for deletion/Rajagopal Kamath (via User:Sldgehmr) and at Articles for deletion/Neo-relativity (via IP addresses; most recently deletion of my vote by .81 and adding a new keep vote via .163). Checking contributions, User:Sldgehmr is newly-created and edits in tandem with User:Gameseeker, and the IPs in the 111.92.8(23).x range have a long history of edits at Rajagopal Kamath interleaved with User:Gameseeker's edits. My initial assumption was just that Gameseeker sometimes edited while logged out, without intentional socking, until the IP edits and sock account at the AfDs started happening. The socking needs to be shut down hard, in a timely manner. Christopher Thomas (talk) 00:44, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * CU won't connect IPs to accounts, and it's unnecessary here. I've blocked and tagged Sldgehmr as a sock of the master. I've also blocked the master for 48h for socking, and I've blocked 111.92.82.0/23 for three days. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 02:43, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
