Suspected sockpuppets



 * Tools: Editor interaction utility • Interaction Timeline • User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

• 2018-09-06T12:36: The account is created.

• 18:46: User creates Draft:Bram Inscore (6,192 bytes) as their first and only edit. Bram Inscore has worked with Brett McLaughlin, known professionally as Leland, and the article Leland (musician) has apparently been used as a template for the draft.

• Next morning 2018-09-07T07:23: The account is created.

• 08:38: User makes their first edit in this diff to Draft:Bram Inscore. The edit shows editing knowledge about 1. General Wiki markup

2.  tags

3. CS1 templates

4. Wiki tables

5. Categories (although not WP:DRAFTNOCAT)

6. etc.

• They then make in main space, all marked as minor, 11 with the edit summary grammar. All edits are perfectly fine.

• They return immediately after to Draft:Bram Inscore and in this diff adds a cite web (should have been a cite book) to a book title found via Google Books. Notice that the the URL ends in .dk indicating that the user is working from a computer on a Danish IP. (I should know, I am Danish.)

• User:Hovedtelefoner then two minutes later adds a perfect {{subst:submit}} to the draft in this diff.

• Hovedtelefoner means "head phones", and Ladenmark is a rather rare Danish surname, although it could be a portmanteau of "LA"+"Denmark" as well. Bram Inscore is – coincidently? – based in Los Angeles.

• I suggest a CU for sleepers or connections to other previous accounts. Sam Sailor 15:35, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
