Possible sockmaster made this and this edit to Cooper Kupp's page. Ten minutes after being blocked, this edit was made, and then this one. Edits aren't the same content-wise, but timing seems a little more than coincidental. Spf121188 (talk) 18:50, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Just adding that the possible sock accounts contributions page also shows these were their first edits. Spf121188 (talk) 18:53, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

I'll also add that Smokinthateliapplepack hasn't made another edit since Cooper Kupps page was protected. Perhaps I jumped the gun a little bit... Spf121188 (talk) 18:11, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

 * This looks like petty vandalism - the proposed master seems to be unconnected, perhaps it's been prompted by some online gossip or whatever. I'll block the confirmed accounts without tags for wasting our time. Closing.  Girth Summit  (blether)  18:04, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
Potential sockmaster, made this edit on Cooper Kupp's page earlier in February. The IP adress made this edit on Kupps page today, a few days after the page's protection was lifted. The edits are very similar, as you can see. Also, the potential sockmaster was tied to another account on this SPI I opened a few weeks ago. Hopefully I'm not jumping the gun here, but it seemed like it might be worth looking at, but I do know that IP's can't be linked to accounts. SPF121188 (tell me!) (contribs) 21:57, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm just going to add this for some context about this users edit history... perhaps not relevant here, but thought it was worth noting. SPF121188  (tell me!) (contribs) 22:13, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

 * - This report should be moved/merged to Sockpuppet investigations/Qwerty123uiopl. Bbb23 (talk) 23:21, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅ (moved from Sockpuppet investigations/Smokinthateliapplepack). GABgab 23:26, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
 * The IP hasn't edited in several days. It belongs to a school, so I'm skeptical that the previous disruptive edits were done by this sockmaster. Closing without action for now. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 15:21, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Sockmaster made this edit back in February, and today made this edit. Not to mention the name is exactly the same pretty much. Looks pretty cut and dry. SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 15:24, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Adding this edit made from a confirmed puppet account based on this report. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 15:40, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

asked me if I could keep an eye out and contribute to this SPI if anything comes up, so I went through Cooper Kupp and Eli Apple's page histories to find examples of users vandalizing the pages specifically in a way that refers to Cooper Kupp as Eli Apple's father in some way.

Aside from your already listed suspected sockpuppet, I found the below on Cooper Kupp's page.


 * – 12
 * – 1
 * – 12
 * – 1234

On Eli Apple's page it was much, much more severe. The lower in this list they are, the further back their edit was. I placed all the registered accounts at the top first.

It's a bit of an information dump, but I'm unfamiliar with sockpuppet investigations. I wanted to contribute by at least finding some possibilities and the associated difs so that someone else didn't have to go through that effort. Hope I was of help in some way Spf121188.

 * Thank you for your help, as you know, vandalism has be pretty severe with certain player pages, I appreciate it! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 19:20, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Blocking Qwertyioup5594 as suspected. There's no point blocking all those IPs, but I've semi-protected Cooper Kupp for a while.  Eli Apple is already protected.  For future reference, checkuser and checkip templates are better than userlinks for SPI reports because various bits of automation know how to process those better. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:47, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
