 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

Admin User:Jehochman blocked User:Dengero indefinitely last month after I complained to him about the long-term harassment User_talk:Jehochman. Dengero was also blocked for being a sockpuppet of the community banned Ideogram. Jehochman pointed out that Denegro is likely a sleeper sock of Ideogram or someone acting in concert with the Ideogram account. Jehochman himself was instrumental in banning Ideogram a few years ago Administrators%27_noticeboard/Community_sanction/Archive11. He later lifted the ban against Dengero with the edit summary "awaiting a case if one is filed" and asked me to file a sockpuppet report if I wish. This could be too stale and we might have to block based on behavioral evidence. If we could also see what other sleeper accounts might be hiding, that would be nice. --YOLO Swag (talk) 08:24, 15 November 2012 (UTC) YOLO Swag (talk) 08:24, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

 * In defence. First of all, let me say that Jehochman explicitly said that I wasn't blocked for sockpuppetry, so please stop using that as your argument. As for your accusation, I don't really know what to say other than I'm not them? Dengero (talk) 08:53, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Please take this investigation seriously and look over the evidence. I have no issue if Ideogram wants to return to Wikipedia and edit productively after the long expired ban.  My concern is that the user may be involved with this account and using it to pursue past conflicts with other editors.  That would be very bad.  Jehochman Talk 19:05, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I am glad to see that our Checkusers are as diligent as ever about looking into these reports... Hello?  Is anybody out there? Jehochman Talk 13:15, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

 * I see insufficient evidence to block Dengero at this time. If you look at the user compare utility, you will see little overlap between Dengero and Ideogram when compared to the overlap between the confirmed sock Slashem and Ideogram. Furthermore, they use somewhat dissimilar edit summaries, and Dengero is fond of user scripts while Ideogram wasn't. Reaper Eternal (talk) 17:01, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
