already blocked Eezdare as an obvious sock of Whodatttt, and Loverofediting quit editing a while ago. Nevertheless, given the last few revdelled edits of the 2a04:4a43 range, it's probably better to also block the Loverofediting account and to keep track of them here. CU requested to look for additional accounts. ☿ Apaugasma  ( talk  ☉) 16:15, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Loverofediting used the 2a04:4a43 range to edit war on Fraxinetum ( vs ; cf. the history).
 * Loverofediting edited Theories about Alexander the Great in the Quran to stress that Dhu al-Qarnayn was Alexander the Great ; the 2a04:4a43 range edited warred over a similar POV on that article     (adding "In the Muslim world, Alexander the Great continues to be known as Dhul Qarnayn, Alexander Dhul Qarnayn" etc.).
 * In the edit war at Theories about Alexander the Great in the Quran, the 2a04:4a43 range was reinstating the same edits as Whodatttt and Eezdare.
 * The 2a04:4a43 range also reinstated the same edits as Whodatttt on numerous other articles:  vs  ;  vs  ;  vs

 * - there has been some seriously unpleasant harassment out of that range recently. Can I check whether anyone has contacted Trust and Safety/Emergencies about the threats? Pinging (the OP),  (who blocked the /40),  (who blocked 2a04:4a43:4d0f:cb37::/64), and  (who is mentioned in the report). I'm confident that the same person has been editing out of that /40 range for years; they sometimes use accounts, but much of the time they edit while logged out. I completely agree with the /40 range block, but am not confident that one week is going to cut it, and given the nature of the threats I think that T&S need to be made aware if they haven't been already.
 * With regards to the older account proposed here as the master, I do think it likely that it is the same person. The CU records are stale, but they seem to have abandoned the account after its one-month block and moved on elsewhere. I'm going to block without tags - I very much doubt that it's their first account, they have certainly been editing logged out since long before that account was created, and with only 81 edits I don't think it's significant enough to be worth moving the case and fiddling with the tags over. (Whichever clerk archives this case is welcome to disagree with me and move/retag everyone if they see any value in that).
 * I've made some notes on cuwiki to help us keep track of this individual moving forwards.  Girth Summit  (blether)  20:58, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks for that - good to know they're in the loop. As things stand, I'm inclined to close this case with no further action for now, but if they return and start that stuff again, please report immediately and I or another CU will look at a long-term range block. There will be some collateral, but not enough to make me hesitate to prevent abuse of that nature.  Girth Summit  (blether)  22:34, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

This is an LTA with a long and complex history of socking. Whodatttt is usually treated as the sockmaster. Satanic verses is one of their favourite articles. The real giveaway, though, is Theories about Alexander the Great in the Qu'ran. Here are diffs of confirmed socks editing this page. 1 2 3

In this example Gamma 737 effectively reinstates (using a very very similar edit summary style) the edits of this confirmed sock and this confirmed sock. Here we see that, after a handful of edits (and a dubious explanation of creating another account), Kaalaka finds their way to Satanic verses and begins making major changes like this that are essentially the same as Gamma 737, who has dozens of edits on the same page. If you compare edit summaries and topics chosen (this LTA tends to focus on Islam), it is clear that Gamma 737 and Kalakaaa are the same user, and that each is a sock of Whodatt and the roving IP.

 * I just wanted to point this out. The accuser, @NEDOCHAN did not like my edits that fixed some part of the Satanic Verses article that misrepresented its source, and he reverted them with a reason of “lgv(sock)” . So I posted the source text on the talk page of the article and invited him to have a discussion ; he refused the invitation and instead told me to "refer yourself to a check user" and kept reverting it with more accusation of sock.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaalakaa (talk • contribs) 03:51, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
 * here is some behavioral analysis after CU.I was already suspecting Warriorheydey of being a sock of Whodatttt, mainly for their editing interests (for being Whodatttt, see here) combined with a generally disruptive attitude. The fact that they now turn up in a CU check makes me fairly certain it's them. The shared interest in the citizenship of an Austrian-American actress  vs  more or less clinches it. Just as a note for future reference, this seems to suggest that they have temporarily lost their interest in the Dhu al-Qarnayn/Alexander subject they used to focus on previously.When looking at the editing interactions of the other accounts, it's striking that Kaalakaa has no overlap at all with either Whodatttt and their previously known socks (Loverofediting, , ), nor with new sock Warriorheydey. NEDOCHAN above claims that Kaalakaa's edits are similar to Gamma373 (who incidentally is not a proven sock), but they provide no diffs from Gamma373 to prove this claim (please provide diffs of both accounts to show the similarity). There seems to be essentially no behavioral evidence at this point for Kaalakaa.
 * As for Gamma373, the editing interaction tool shows that the only overlap they have with Whodatttt socks are all on articles related to the Dhu al-Qarnayn/Alexander subject, and none at all on any article outside of that particular subject. This in itself would tend to show that Gamma373 is not likely a Whodatttt sock, but the actual content and style of their edits is also completely different: see  vs ;  vs . As I noted before here, Whodatttt's entire focus in this subject area is on stressing that Dhu al-Qarnayn was Alexander the Great, while Gamma373's many constructive edits to this subject area seem to do nothing of the sort . This edit  may seem to reinstate known socks' edits , but this content was actually reinstated earlier by an IP  (81.128.181.106, clearly used by Whodatttt) and then removed by NEDOCHAN together with Gamma373's new edits , so when Gamma373 reverted NEDOCHAN's removal  they haphazardly also reinstated the socks' edits. To sum up, Gamma373 clearly is not a Whodatttt sock. ☿  Apaugasma  ( talk  ☉) 19:46, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

This one is already CU-blocked (not confirmed to Whodatttt but to a non-confirmed sock). I'm mainly reporting to list them here for future reference, but a tag on their user page would also be helpful, and perhaps a further CU check to confirm them to more recent accounts? If not feel free to close this immediately.

Some extra behavioral evidence just for the sake of it: vs ;  vs ;  vs  and.

 * Ziggy Wiggy Figgy made this addition to Umayyad dynasty, which was subsequently reverted when they were blocked on August 18 as a suspected sock of Loverofediting. A couple of weeks later, Mingles1662 reinstated that same edit without explanation.
 * This edit by Iftar7376 seems to promote a particular POV and it was copied by Mingles1662 to two other articles a few days later.
 * More generally, these new accounts also edit on very similar articles/topics in comparison with Loverofediting, Ziggy Wiggy Figgy, and Whodatttt; namely, on Islam (e.g. Quranism), the Umayyads, on some celebrities (especially Jean-Claude Van Damme, apparently).

92.0.65.92 is almost certainly being used for another WP:BLOCKEVADE by this sockpuppeteer. At Luqman they quickly restored content introduced by Jackie786, a recently blocked sockpuppet of Loverofediting, after I deleted it (same content was also previously reverted here).

I'm also noting that 92.40.215.220 was clearly also the same user, at least in July 2023, as both IPs edit-warred at Al-Hakam II over the same content (compare and ). However, this IP has not been active since July. R Prazeres (talk) 16:54, 9 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Update: this edit by 92.40.215.118 seems to be the same block evasion, restoring content added by the previous sock and recently deleted. So there may be various more IPs involved. R Prazeres (talk) 16:08, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Another update: 92.40.215.118 has been blocked for two weeks . Shortly after my comment above, they apparently retaliated against me, so I reported them to WP:ANI (see diff of my report here). R Prazeres (talk) 18:24, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

This user made their first edit on one of the sockmaster's favourite articles - Alexander the Great in the Quran.

Podolski6272 first edit reinstates a banned IP edit, here. They then continued to make the edit, and it is the only edit this account has made. Blatant sockpuppetry.

This new user's first edit was to reinstate an edit made by an IP here. The edit comes almost immediately after an edit by a confirmed sock of the same editor here. The idea that a new editor would join and immediately start reinstating edits by a confirmed sock makes no sense. Their reverted edits have been reinstated by Iskandar323, who has been assessed as Posslikely to be Loverofediting already. I think that the similarity of user names and their defence of a clear LTA merits taking another look at this user. Every page Swaglikeme has edited so far has also been edited by confirmed socks.NEDOCHAN (talk) 12:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC) NEDOCHAN (talk) 12:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Comments by other users
Behaviorally, the notion that Iskandar323 is Loverofediting is frankly ridiculous. In terms of editing patterns, temperament, and general helpfulness they are night and day. could you please clarify where they have been assessed possilikely to each other from a technical perspective?

On another level, Iskandar323's assessment of SwagLikeMe464 "I don't see a clear issue with these edits or the user" seems to be correct at least to the extent that the "block evasion" alleged by NEDOCHAN  is not in evidence (yet): SwagLikeMe464 shares with Loverofediting an interest in Quranism and in Non-denominational Muslim (interaction analyser), but I have found no diffs of SwagLikeMe464 reinstating any Loverofediting edit. ☿ Apaugasma  ( talk  ☉) 11:28, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

IP reinstated reverted content of a previous sock account, Mingles1662, at Umayyad dynasty (compare and ).

And just to eliminate all subtlety, they responded to my revert of this edit by mass-reverting my unrelated edits on other articles, which is exactly what Loverofediting's previous IP socks (92.40.214.86 and 92.40.215.118) did on a previous occasion (see this earlier report).

The IP has been automatically reported to WP:AIV by a bot, so this may become moot, but I'm still reporting it here so the evidence is at least on the record, per a previous recommendation at WP:ANI (see here). R Prazeres (talk) 00:45, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

Other possible socks of prolific sockpuppeteer Loverofediting.

WushuFighter reinstated a reverted edit by an earlier blocked sock account, Hero7373 (compare and ).

Loverofediting also typically edits in a rather distinct range of topics: Islam-related articles (like Quranism) and celebrities (especially Jean-Claude Van Damme). (Look for example at the histories of Ziggy Wiggy Figgy, Hero7373, Whodatttt, etc.) At least one other active account is editing the same topics, Rizzle685. E.g.: in addition to editing Jean-Claude Van Damme at the same time as WushuFighter, they've edited Yazid I, Mohammed bin Salman, Jet Li, Quranism, etc; all articles edited by previous blocked socks. That doesn't look like a coincidental overlap to me. BookOfEli131 also has some of the same overlap (Quranism, Islam and music, Torah in Islam, and Hadith, plus Val Valentino in common with Rizzle685).

If these are confirmed, there may be others still. R Prazeres (talk) 18:25, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Similar interest in Islam-related articles and MMA-related articles. Dido789 reinstated sock Jackie786's 30 August edit with a similar summary on Mu'awiya I. Jackie786: “He is seen as transforming the caliphate into a worldly and despotic kingship.” This does not fit with what the lead says about him being “honoured”. Dido789: "The word “honour” is far stretched. The main article does not mention this, but states even Sunnis have criticised him. There is no consensus in Sunnism that he should be “honoured”.
