Suspected sockpuppets

 * ( original case name)

Both of these users are attempting to add links to a post from the same Youtube channel on Planet Zoo. Both of the accounts are making very similar edits, as Willard Lester Walrus Boggs attempted to add the links here, and then GeorgeOstrich reverted the edits by Dissident93 a few days later that removed the links. Also, it may be worth mentioning that the YouTuber they are both trying to add is a guy named George Boggs, and both of these accounts have a portion of that name in their username.

Same focus on American zoos as previous socks. GTZLPZ attempted to cite to the George Boggs YouTube channel with the same tone of writing style like previous confirmed socks (compare to here and here). I've also noticed that socks tend to use exclamation points in most of their edit summaries, with summaries such as "All fixed up!" (GTZLPZ to Willard L.W. Boggs).

Not to mention the very first edit GTZLPZ made, which is to create their userpage which starts with "I am NOT a suckpuppetundefined!" which is generally code for "I am a sockpuppet". SkyWarrior 00:14, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

WP:DUCK. Important to note that the 73 IP address was previously used (and blocked as such) by this sockmaster. SkyWarrior 00:00, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Added . Rangeblock perhaps? SkyWarrior  19:23, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Added . 5 edits to National Zoological Park (United States) adding the same animals, like "secretary bird" that Meena Kurian added to Planet Zoo and other similar pages. Dr. Van Nostrand (talk) 19:38, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

 * I blocked the 73 IP for a longer period of time. 2601:846:C200:3558:0:0:0:0/64 is already blocked and I don't think there is enough editing history from the other IPs to justify a block at this time. Closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 10:34, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

WP:DUCK, similar editing behaviours (adding unsourced DLC pack to Planet Zoo) with similarly silly edit summary OceanHok (talk) 15:45, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

The first account created their userpage with something suggesting they were already blocked. The IPv6 edited the first account's talk page. The IPs use the edit summary "All fixed up". Also, username similarities (the last one is a more username based suspicion). Randomly changing animals in zoo articles, like previous socks. Previous socks:, ,. New socks:, , ,.

Two brand new users trying to claim the LTA case is closed (the IP claiming so on the LTA page, and the named user creating a category). Also, the named user is an obvious duck, judging by the username. Pretty sus, if you ask me.  Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 22:34, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
