Suspected sockpuppets



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

Three users whose accounts have been around for a while (1.5 to 5 years) but very limited editing history (all under 100 edits). They all show up at Articles for deletion/Appy Pie (2nd nomination) within a couple of hours (in one case, a few minutes) of each other to make policy-free keep votes. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:31, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

I ain't no sock puppet, I am simply a big fan of No code Development Platforms and while I was researching I came across the Articles for deletion/Appy Pie (2nd nomination) and I decided to chime in, so stop trolling me and undermining my work. Vivekpegasus (talk) 06:43, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment : Also, other user names with Mach, Leo and Lion. But they are old accounts with no recent edits. @ what happens to the other SPI which I started, merge or close? I added the one I suspected from my case to your case. Thank you! :) AngusMEOW  ( chatter  •  paw trail ) 14:04, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , As I mentioned elsewhere, could you please list the specific usernames you believe are socks? As for the other SPI, don't worry about it, eventually it'll get merged into here. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:08, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I added other socks here, also if you take a look at they started the account to  save the page for Abhinav Girdhar which was nominated at AfD, who is the founder of Appy Pie.  AngusMEOW  ( chatter  •  paw trail ) 14:37, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

 * MacPoli1, JK.Kite, Vivekpegasus, and Mackshaun are ❌ from a technical standpoint. The rest of the accounts are (and generally I don't think it's worth our time to investigate accounts that have been abandoned for more than three months). Possibly some kind of off-wiki canvassing going on rather than sockpuppetry? Mz7 (talk) 22:23, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I stuck Not a ballot on Articles for deletion/Appy Pie (2nd nomination) and I'll let it go at that. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:53, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

@ based on their desperate Keep votes on AfD for Appy Pie and COI on the same page, also I suspect User:Vivekpegasus to have other multiple accounts too like the ones starting with Leo or Lion usernames, there might be a bigger sockpuppeteer out there on this one.

 * , Thanks for opening this, but see Sockpuppet investigations/MacPoli1. If you've got other specific user names, please add them there. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:55, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
