Quack. Admitted that he was responsible for spamming my notifications bar with "thanking" me for my userpage edits, all of which were known to have been caused by 5 other sockpuppets of User:Mr Wiki Pro.

I added two more socks to the list; their editing behavior and harassing of other users give him away anyways. They appear to be already indeffed, but this hasn't stopped him from returning every day to create new socks to wreck havoc. Requesting a sleeper check for any possible hidden socks.

Really loud quacks. Seriously, just how long have we been putting up with this crap. Same behavior, same attacks targeted pages. Can someone please block this vandal?

 * Added another sock... Can someone please help out???
 * So you think. Perhaps you've never heard of multiple, separate rangeblocks? The admins save them for really disruptive vandals, like one other sockmaster that I won't mention here. He also had a "very dynamic and busy IP Range," but he's gone now, for a total of 2 months, in fact. You may be next, in which case everyone else will end up feeling a lot happier. LightandDark2000 (talk) 09:55, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

OK I honestly don't know what to do now. He was sending me multiple messages under different names on my talk page so I requested page protection. I really hated doing that because I like to communicate with new editors. So my page was protected and Mr Wiki Pro started thank spamming me instead. This was starting to make my time on Wikipedia very unpleasant for me and it upset members of my family (who don't edit here but know I do) as well. So I took a break from editing for a few weeks. Today, after resuming editing yesterday, I had a barnstar and an apologetic message from Mr Wiki Pro under his new identity on my talk page. Obviously, page protection didn't work, because he waited for the new account to be auto confirmed. Assuming he's for real and his apology is sincere, the rules say he has to undergo the six month standard offer from his original account, not a new one. I'm leaving it to the team of admins to judge his sincerity and whether the standard offer is appropriate. Any advice you have for me would be greatly appreciated as well.

These three appeared at Articles for deletion/Shaikh Burhunuddin Post Graduate College. One thanked me for my edit! I suspect these may be socks of another master, and request checkuser since I also fear there may be more masters of the cosmos.

I think we have to keep using Checkuser on this one. I suspect he wants to see how fast we can report him. Everyone needs a hobby. It's getting boring. How about a decent range block, too? Fiddle  Faddle  14:37, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

 * As I'm sure I've commented somewhere with respect to MWP: rangeblocks aren't going to be practical, and considering how much he enjoys the attention, RBI is probably the best approach. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 15:06, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Already blocked for obvious trolling and impersonation, but noting anyway. I'm not 100% sure this is Mr Wiki Pro, but Mr Wiki Pro seems to have a grudge against Ryulong (compare WP:ANI to Ballsofsteel's edit to ANI), and writing styles, such as it is, aren't dissimilar, I think. Needless to say, I'm quite sure this isn't actually Kohs. Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 18:27, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Requesting a Checkuser to take a look at this one, since this has been going on for quite some time. I'm requesting a sleeper check, just in case, because you never know what might be lying around. Sigh... This is just sad. LightandDark2000 (talk) 04:38, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Really??... When is this ever going to end? Can an Checkuser please run a sleeper check, and possibly implement some small Rangeblocks on his known ranges (several small-scale ones, if necessary)? It would really help. LightandDark2000 (talk) 09:39, 23 September 2014 (UTC)


 * CU request added, although this one sock has been blocked. Interestingly, he's not up to any shenanigans on Simple English Wikipedia, maybe because they have a policy of "ONE chance and that's it" when it comes to users banned from English Wikipedia. —This lousy T-shirt— (talk) 15:21, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Does he actually edit there? Hmmm... Apparently he does. Maybe he does have some good intentions, and has decided only to cause disruption here. I mean, he has been known to assist users against other vandals, usually on different Wikimedia sites. It appears that although he may have been angered by the indefinite block of his original account here, he has decided to limit the vandalism to the English Wikipedia site; that's all I can think of. It is strange though. Honestly, I think that he should end the vandalism/sockpuppetry altogether and focus more on the positive edits he contributes, as that will help much more in a potential unblock request. But then again, that isn't really my choice. LightandDark2000 (talk) 03:47, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
 * How many times have you been told to not ask for rangeblocks? I can't see where any of these socks had anything to do with you, so you shouldn't even be here. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:18, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

I came across this via a report at ANI. I'd initially just given them a warning about the serial thanks (with no actual edits) and then noticed the earlier post by User:Dr.K that stated that he was an extremely likely sock of Mr Wiki Pro. This looks like a duck scenario and I've blocked them, but there are likely other socks in the wings since Mr Wiki Pro seems to like to create multiple accounts at the same time. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   08:45, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I dunno if this is bad enough to warrant an IP range block or not yet, but it does look like he'll likely continue (if this is him). He's at almost 200 sockpuppets (suspected and confirmed) at this point. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   08:49, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
 * On a side note, is there a way to check for other accounts in a situation like this that wouldn't involve opening up a full SPI? Tokyogirl79  (｡◕‿◕｡)   09:48, 17 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I think this is a rather obvious duck. In fact a blocked sock,, also uses a name which is a self-reference to their signature behaviour. I support Tokyogirl's idea for a sleeper check. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις  11:26, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
