 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by Tajik

Besides being almost identical nicks, both are engaged in the same subject (Hazara people). Both accounts are active at the same time. And they award eith other:. Tajik (talk) 17:37, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

The user - very obviously - lacks knowledge and understanding of the subject he is editing. In the past few weeks, he has systematically and progressively destroyed the articles Hazara people and Hazaragi language with his own unsourced POV. He was already asked by another user not to spread nationalistic POV. The user is also removing tags without any discussion. Tajik (talk) 17:37, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

– Behavioral evidence clearly indicates that these accounts are the same person. No CU necessary. MuZemike 18:29, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

User:Time Buddha has been indefinitely blocked as a sock. I have blocked both User:Hazaraboys and User:Hazaraboyz for 2 weeks. I invite another neutral admin to review my blocks as it looks like some unclear username change has occurred (which doesn't take away from my conclusion that sock puppetry has occurred via usage of the Time Buddha account).

 * Good call -- *boys and *boyz do seem to be the same account, as there is no overlap in the edits.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:21, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

If no other admins wish to review it, then I'll mark as closed. MuZemike 04:29, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Suspected sockpuppets

Hazaraboyz is currently under a two-week block for socking; it was reset after a second sock,, was found. Nurbandma was created only one day after the block was reset, and his edits are similar. In fact, his first edit was to go straight to Hazaraboyz' page and copyedit info about the Wikiproject they created. Requesting a sweep; if found to be a sock, this user will be blocked indef.

Same POV and edits to the same articles. Hazara Democratic Party created by Hazaraboyz and is edited by Gharjistan. Facts, not fiction (talk) 19:09, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Further, this sock also edited Hazara Democratic Party which shows he can't leave it alone. All socks edit Hazara people which is his main focus. All the new socks edits are similar in style and POV as previous socks to this article. Facts, not fiction (talk) 19:18, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
