Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nildo ouriques/Archive

Suspected sockpuppets
Meridadotropico is already confirmed via checkuser on the polish Portuguese wikipedia, but isn't blocked here yet. The other three accounts have already been blocked by as obvious WP:DUCKs, the overlap in behaviour is obvious - creating nonsense redirects where they combine multiple words together, using Requested articles/Business and economics, an interest in the vital articles process, and an focus on Nazism.

Requesting checkuser for a scan and sleeper check, since they were using 3 accounts at once a few months ago. 192.76.8.78 (talk) 22:36, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Before this gets archived I'm just going to note that almost all the activity in appears to be the same person. 192.76.8.78 (talk) 02:14, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

If/when confirmed, can the blocking admin also mass-delete pages created? These tend to be very dubious redirects; if we have to go through the normal tagging-deletion process, it'll really gum up the works. Iseult  Δx parlez moi 22:57, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

 * All of these are ✅ to each other using current enwiki data. . Based on some notes from ptwiki, I'm comfortable calling them ✅ to Nildo ouriques. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:27, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
Users both have engaged in similar editing patterns on Requested articles/Business and economics. IP editor (2804:14C:5BB1:8298:1D53:1FE9:753E:3C61) has repeatedly tried making nonsense page requests (customary to Nildo's style of editing: 'creating nonsense redirects where they combine multiple words together') and has shown repeated interest in requesting Socialism and communism (here & here), a page that Nildo created under the sock User:Meridadotropico. IP's responses are equally grammatically erroneous, which would track for Nildo since they're not a native English speaker (I believe Portuguese is Nildo's primary language).

Addendum: User has now used a total of 4 IPs to respond to Wikipedia talk:Requested articles/Business and economics and this investigation. All have been added to the pile. All show similar edit histories, save for 2804:14C:5BB1:8298:3462:F43A:4A9B:570B who responded here, likely forgetting the change in accounts. 187.20.115.154's history is particularly similar to Nildo (Vital articles, Nazism, Requested articles, etc.), seems there is a broader WP:Meatpuppet effort going on this page.

 * Given the IPs some time off. Noting for the record that there aren't "4 IPs" being used, there is one IPv6 /64 (see WP:/64) and one IPv4, although you wouldn't really know that unless you have experience with IPv6. Closing. firefly  ( t · c ) 11:10, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
