 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

I suspect that User:DylanWayne0606 may be a sock of User:Rollbama4 based off his edits to Frederick High School. that the account has ever made was to revert an edit made by John from Idegon. The account was registered the same day as that edit. It just seems like a highly specific first and only edit to ever make. If not a sock puppet, I would suspect a meat puppet.

I've included User:Crimsonxxtide22 in this SPI because of a comment made on Rollbama4's talk page by. ("Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections.") I don't actually have very strong evidence for that particular accusation, but it might be worth looking into nevertheless. The name Crimsonxxtide22 came up when I was looking through recent edits made around the same time as Rollbama4's edits in order to try to determine the account TEDickey was referencing. The contribution history shows that he works almost exclusively in the same set of articles that Rollbama4 works on. Looking at the user interaction timelines, in both Frederick High School and Frederick, Maryland, which are Rollbama4's main articles to edit, Rollbama4's first edits appear within 24 hours of Crimsonxxtide22's last edits (actually Crimsonxxtide22 ceases to edit in general about 24 hours before Rollbama4's first edits). TEDickey may be able to provide more insight into what he was referring to in his message.

There have also been repeated attempts to add the semi-finalist listings to the article. The diffs listed all refer to the IP address listed in my sockpuppets list. I couldn't immediately locate a diff with Rollbama4 adding that list to the article, but I seem to recall it happening once. I may be mistaken here as well.

Rollbama4 has been causing issues in the article for some time, mostly in regards to copyrighted images. (couldn't find the diff in which these were added, but they were all uploaded by him)  Though there was at least one instance of copyrighted text as well.

I've never opened a SPI before, so let me know if I didn't do something right. Sorry for listing so many other diffs as well. I just wanted to show that he has been disruptive. I should have support in this. He may be able to provide some additional insight. I'm unsure if a checkuser is needed. Zell Faze (talk) 23:09, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

 * is ✅ from and was created specifically to support Rollbama4's edits at Frederick High School; I've blocked that account. I think it's obvious that  is the same editor, however the account is abandoned and there was no overlap in editing. I'll leave it be for now but will watch it to ensure it's not resurrected in the future. Rollbama4 hasn't edited in several days and any block at this point will likely be unnoticed by them and would therefore be more punitive than preventative. I've warned them that any further instances of multiple account use will lead to a block.--Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  18:58, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
