Suspected sockpuppets



 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

Both have a habit of mass nominating articles for deletion. The idiosyncrasies of these users are startling.

Calton: 1 2 3

Cylon B: 1 2 3

Can someone please check whether the users are same? 115.132.234.82 (talk) 05:09, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Calton and Cylon B are ❌.
 * The following accounts are ✅ to each other:
 * is ✅ from the above group of accounts. Indeed, the technical evidence is very strong. However, with the exception of Cylon B, who has a bit over 200 edits, the other accounts have at most a handful of edits each. Donnie Park, on the other hand, has over 17,000 edits. That means trying to do a behavioral analysis between Donnie Park and the other accounts is very difficult. There is some page overlap, but I don't know if it's enough to block, and I haven't examined other kinds of behavioral evidence. I'll leave the decision to a clerk.
 * In the meantime, I've blocked the confirmed group of accounts without tags.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:11, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Calton and Cylon B have quite different interests at AfD based on the evidence presented and what I was able to dig up. "Overzealous deletionist" is practically a cliché, so I can't make a determination of sockpuppetry on that alone. I don't see their idiosyncrasies as any more behaviorally connected than two random users pulled from the "overzealous deletionist" pile. As for Donnie Park, the behavior is starkly different from Calton or Cylon B. I'm not taking any action with respect to Donnie Park. Closing. ~ Rob 13 Talk 07:33, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I have reopened this report. A master, even if one of these accounts, needs to be determined, and should be split off to a separate case. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:07, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
