Suspected sockpuppets


Is it possible at all that this one is part of the gang as well? The MO certainly follows the pattern Akerbeltz (talk) 19:53, 6 October 2010 (UTC) :

Evidence submitted by Qwrk
I quote Akerbeltz; ''There's something fishy going on that someone might want to look into this. Out of nowhere, there's suddenly a rash of single purpose accounts coming up spewing (sorry, but there's no other term for it) POV nonsense and all edit warring over pretty much the same thing.'' On a great number of pages related to Spanish people of Basque origin we're trying to form some kind of consensus after these alleged sockpuppeteers started a rampage in indiscriminately deleting the Basque components from the descriptions. On top of that they initially used threatening expressions, and only after some careful attempts to get them to express their intentions they were willing to take part in the discussions going on on the respective talk pages. However, all of a sudden these newly registered one trick ponies start popping up, taking part in editing out what they perceive as Basque nationalist propaganda from our side. We're not Basque, not even Spanish. Qwrk (talk) 14:18, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I'll second that what Qwrk said. All on the same topic, all with the same bad English (that's not a crime but indicative to some extent), none editing any other pages and making similar "comments": Akerbeltz (talk) 14:53, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

 * That many? o.O Thank you for dealing with this so quick, we thought we were about to go insane! Akerbeltz (talk) 15:06, 6 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Would it be possible to keep this investigation open for a few days just in case there are more evasions, rather than opening up a new one every time? Akerbeltz (talk) 20:00, 6 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi there, thanks in advance for all your good work! I don't know exactly about the status of this case but since it's the same case... Anyway, everything points to Rolobando03 in Gipuzkoa being another sockpuppet used by Guipuscoa, so that he can be traced and blocked. Cheers Iñaki LL (talk) 11:02, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

I blocked User:Mario25c, who resorted to using a mobile device to evade the block; I started to run the CU, but then a certain popular quote from a much more prominent CheckUser came to mind. –MuZemike 20:00, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
