BluesCluesFan2021, whose name is similar in format to NickelodeonFan2021, is making similar unsourced and unexplained edits on Tinga Tinga Tales as those made by NickelodeonFan2021. BluesCluesFan2021 started editing only 3 days after NickelodeonFan2021 was indef blocked. The ducks are quacking.  Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 07:23, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

WP:DUCK Same name format as sockmaster and previously reported sock, editing the same articles, most notably Tinga Tinga Tales and RTÉjr. DuggeeFan2021 was created a few days after the last sock was banned, but couldn't edit Tinga Tinga Tales until page protection expired. The edits are similar, with common changes such as changing end date but the edits are not as extensive. Nevertheless, this is block evasion.  Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 08:10, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! - Once again this is the same name format as all the other accounts and as usual this one has edited Tinga Tinga Tales.  Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 18:41, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

blocked Numberblocks2021 for WP:DE but when I looked at it became clear there were other accounts.
 * Cbeebies 2025 account was blocked by as well.
 * NickJr2021 was blocked by
 * Danny Phantom 2028 was blocked by as a sockpuppet of JoeyPknowsalotbaoutthat and globally locked.

Another page with overlap is

The naming pattern and targeting of that article is WP:DUCK to me. The behavior, though, is making me question if this is actually a different account:. NickelodeonFan2021's sockpuppets have also edited extensively on that article and follow a similar naming pattern (e.g., and ). Moreover, NickelodeonFan2021 tends to target dates, which a number of these new accounts have done as well. ( compared to, , )

My CU request is either:
 * confirm these accounts to the identified sockpuppet (Danny Phantom 2028) or
 * confirm these accounts to NickelodeonFan2021

Considering the fact that some of these accounts (such as 'Numberblocks2021' and 'Cbeebies 2025') have added the same bogus season 4 information onto Raa Raa the Noisy Lion, could Joaqjoaq be related to this as well? And I know checkuser can't connect IPs, but that one would then possibly connect 2601:201:4201:A4B0:0:0:0:0/64 as well?... Magitroopa (talk) 19:16, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

The LittleCharleybear accounts are pretty obvious. As for the rest, I first noticed this set of edits by PapyrusSansUndyneFan on Furby Boom (creating an article where a redirect had been), and then this edit by HoopsAndYoyoFans2022 restoring the article after it had been restored as a redirect. A look into those accounts' edit histories began to show a series of similar edits related to children's programming vandalism. Hoops and Yoyo's editing history brought me to Little Charley Bear (and the similarity to many of the socks listed here) and that page history brought me to and thence to this SPI. Many of these socks are already blocked, but it's definitely worth looking into sleepers given the history of this sock farm.

I'm not super familiar with this entire case, but trying to go after what RoySmith said- Sockpuppet investigations/JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat/Archive seems to be the earliest with this type of username naming, with 'NickelodeonFan2021' originally being at Sockpuppet investigations/NickelodeonFan2021.

Going through the history of Numberjacks, 'NickJr Fanon2021' seems to actually be a further back account than NickelodeonFan2021. However, I'm wondering where the suspicion of this being JoeyP came from? As I said before, I'm not super familiar with this case (especially the farther back years), but prior to NickJr Fanon2021 (January-February 2021), are there JoeyP socks that were editing similar articles or doing similar style edits? Going through the history of Alphablocks as well, I'm not seeing any immediately visible JoeyP socks.

Something also looks weird at Sockpuppet investigations/JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat/Archive- Danny Phantom 2028 was blocked as being a JoeyP sock, but with only 2 edits, was this checked to be JoeyP or just assumed? Perhaps Bsadowski1 (original blocking admin of Danny Phantom 2028) can give an explanation to this?

Of course, if I'm getting anything wrong here, please disregard this. However, from what I'm able to observe, that's what I'm a bit confused about... Magitroopa (talk) 03:38, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

 * it looks the two of you were involved in the merge of the NickelodeonFan2021 case into here in 05 November 2021. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of data here, so we're going to have to rely on people's recollections of past events to sort this out. -- RoySmith (talk) 12:24, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * So, the 5 November group were reported as part of this SPI case, and the presence of a 'Danny Phantom' account in that cluster made it seem like a credible connection. I looked through the searches I made in the logs, and I've put a note on CU wiki about the IPs involved. All of the accounts in that case were operating out of the same IPv4 IP; the check I ran on NickelodeonFan2021 brought up an IPv6 address that geolocated to the same city, and given the usernames and editing interests I concluded that they were all the same person, so I proposed merging the NickelodeonFan2021 case into this one. I was not familiar with the case prior to that however, so if we are not confident that this group is connected to JoeyP, I would have no objection to them being split back out into a separate NF2021 case. Girth Summit <sub style="font-family:Segoe print;color:blue;"> (blether)  16:54, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * FYI, based on what I said above, if the split were to occur, then I believe NickJr Fanon2021 would be the 'correct' master account to split it out to. Magitroopa (talk) 17:29, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I've added a note to cuwiki, so checkusers can be clear about where I'm coming from and we can agree that this isn't JoeyP. I agree the recent socks all appear related. There's a close technical connection between them and Dimpsboyno3, but no directly smoking gun that I've found yet. My money remains on that. However NickJr Fanon2021 would be an adequate second choice. I'll add another thing to answer a point raised above, is a sock of JoeyP. -- zzuuzz (talk) 23:17, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
 * OK, I'm persuaded that these cases are separate based on the note on CU wiki. When I ran that check in November, all the JoeyP socks were stale, and I was pretty new to the CU toolset - the method of using the logs to infer stuff about stale accounts hadn't clicked. I noted at the time it was only a suspected connection to JoeyP; I can't recall exactly what I was thinking at the time, but I suspect it was just the Danny Phantom usernames. Looks like there are two different puppeteers who like that show. I'd agree that these cases should be split, with the following cases put into a separate case: 28 April 2021, 06 May 2021, 07 May 2021, 05 November 2021, 18 November 2021, 25 January 2022, 22 March 2022. I agree with Magitrooper that NickJr Fanon2021 seems to be the likely oldest account in that group (not currently tagged, but pretty obvious).

I've tagged this group and retagged the accounts that were already tagged (it seems like we've been inconsistent on whether or not to tag these in the past - I can see the WP:DENY argument here). Closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 23:01, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
At usual targets including Hey Duggee, Tinga Tinga Tales, Little Charley Bear, Hoops & Yoyo, etc. May possibly be Sockpuppet investigations/Dimpsboyno3 or Sockpuppet investigations/JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat, but based off of the username ("Fan" followed by 2-4 numbers), this seems like the most likely.

 * Undertalefan80 is ✅ to MLAATR, Sans, Papyrus and Frisk 2022, which was previously connected via CU to GoJettersXuli2022 (see )., closing. Mz7 (talk) 00:35, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for this. I figured it had to be a sock, what with the restoring Atlanta-area IP edits and all.  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) 00:55, 30 December 2022 (UTC)


 * , could you check these accounts against ? PapyrusSansUndyneFan was blocked as a sock of JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat, and the naming pattern and targets do seem to match. Papyrus, Sans, Undyne and Frisk are all from the same game, Undertale, so it would connect them to both Undertalefan80 and MLAATR, Sans, Papyrus and Frisk 2022.

 * - looking into this Mz7 (talk) 20:20, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Good catch, . The historical data for JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat is quite muddy (seems like there have been some half-hearted attempts to evade CU)—however, there is a particular red flag in the CU log data for GoJettersXuli2022 that is very characteristic of JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat. Based on that and combined with the behavioral similarities you mentioned (overlap with Undertale and on the article Go Jetters): . I will retag these accounts as socks of JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat and merge this case under Sockpuppet investigations/JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat. Mz7 (talk) 20:48, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * @Mz7 Many thanks!  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) 21:04, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the confusion. After further review, I believe this is not in fact JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat but rather Sockpuppet investigations/NickJr Fanon2021. Although PapyrusSansUndyneFan was originally blocked as a sockpuppet of JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat, we later changed the sock tag to reflect NickJr Fanon2021 as the sockmaster. It seems there has been confusion in the past between JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat socks and NickJr Fanon2021 socks, and it seems one main reason is because the two sockmasters share a common proxy IP. After reviewing the technical data again, I am now pretty confident that this group is NickJr Fanon2021. I will merge this case under NickJr Fanon2021 and retag the socks accordingly. Mz7 (talk) 21:08, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * OK, I think everything should be good now. Closing. Mz7 (talk) 21:16, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I can barely keep NickJr Fanon2021, Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan, JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat, and Dimpsboyno3 apart. They all look and behave similarly. Thanks for the update and your work on this!  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) 21:26, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

Username is similar to past socks: relating to a show with a year as well.

Editing on many usual targets including Raa Raa the Noisy Lion, Little Charley Bear, Tinga Tinga Tales, and many others. They've also edited Draft:Abadas which has mostly been edited by a currently-blocked IP range (might be them?...) and a past sock. Seems very WP:DUCKy.

I'd share diffs as well, but on mobile right now so it's a bit hard for that right now. Magitroopa (talk) 16:47, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

Most of the same usually-targeted articles including Draft:Abadas, Hey Duggee, Go Jetters, Tree Fu Tom, and more. Also another empty edit request at Talk:Tinga Tinga Tales: and. Similar edit request at Talk:Raa Raa the Noisy Lion as well: and. Magitroopa (talk) 14:53, 11 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I put this at 'NickJr Fanon2021' due to the above information. Upon further investigation, this may be Sockpuppet investigations/Agustin Sepulveda Venegas 2004 Fan due to all the 'stylised as' edits they've done, similar to this April 2022 edit, done by a blocked IP range that definitely appears to be Agustin. So I'm not 100% sure who, but HTF Disco Bear still looks like a sock of someone to me. Magitroopa (talk) 15:07, 11 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I will however say that the edit history of Draft:Abadas does still make me believe this to be NickJr Fanon2021. Magitroopa (talk) 15:12, 11 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Okay, and now given the edit history of Sky Kids (TV channel), it further seems to be NickJr Fanon2021. Compare vs.  vs. . Magitroopa (talk) 15:20, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

There's defo something wrong with this one, I'm just not quite sure what... Their edit history is clearly not that of a noob. Also, here they admit to being, who hasn't (yet) edited on en.wiki but is blocked on es.wiki.

Anyway, they've submitted Draft:Meet The Numberblocks, which reminded me of some of NickJr Fanon2021's earlier work. Also, NickJr Fanon2021 has many previous socks with 'Numberblocks' in their username. Yes, I realise that's a bit tenuous, but it's the best I've got! :)

There are also some other accounts with interest in this Numberblocks topic, which look a bit suspect to me, eg. and, but I can't find any smoking guns.

Can I have CU to scan for others, please? DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:01, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

 * I'm declining to check Ikeriti as there is no evidence of socking on en-wiki and they're behaviorally distinct from the NickJr Fanon2021 sock group. There is no solid evidence presented that they could be linked to another sock group other than an interest in a popular app for young children. If this changes the case can be revisited under a new name.-- Ponyo bons mots 19:50, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
