I'm convinced that User:Kokobenin is a sock of User:amat lib and the account was created for destructive purpose to support their views at WP:AfDs. The account, User:Kokobenin was created on May 03, 2015 14:58:32 with 15 edits counts. 5 edits to this AfD nominated by User:amat lib here, here, here, here and. 1 edit here to this AfD, 1 edit here to this AfD, 1 edit here to this AfD, 1 edit here to this AfD, 1 edit here to this AfD all of which are nominated by User:amat lib. 3 edits to User:Spicevision, here, here and here. 2 edits to their own user page. I never notice the behavior of this sock account until I observed that the same sock account User:Kokobenin voted Delete again to support User:amat lib in this this AfD. I need a Checkuser attention on this Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 11:04, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

Editor votes on Samat Lib's AFDs as did Samat Lib's previous sockpuppet. Both users constantly write "NO reliables sources" in AFD discussions when there are reliable sources, always capitalising the "NO". They both put up clearly notable long-standing European jazz biographies up for deletion, and mess up the transclusion each time. -- haminoon  ( talk ) 21:39, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Technically, the two accounts are between and . .  Don't you mean that the editor initiates AfDs, not votes on Samat lib's AfDs?--Bbb23 (talk) 22:44, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Both. Yasima voted on the Christof May AFD, which was started by Samat. Previously another sockpuppet of Samat voted on 6 AFDs that Samat had started.
 * Additionally Yasima has started 3 AFDs on central European modern jazz musicians, which is also the area Samat started AFDs before they were blocked. All three accounts have the same writing style and the same odd capitalising. -- haminoon  ( talk ) 00:33, 25 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Inconclusive at best, especially since the previous case was much more clear-cut. Given the age of the case and the lack of further disruption, I am marking for closure with no action taken. &mdash;Darkwind (talk) 06:00, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

I've suspected the user as a sock due to previous instances where the master sock (, who has been blocked previously for a week) tends to create new accounts in order to support his views on an AfD per this edit where Rita magnoo voted Delete just 12 minutes after the account was created. —Oluwa2Chainz »» (talk to me) 14:15, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

 * - I don't see enough evidence specifically tying this to to justify checking that account. There is evidence that  is a returning editor. ~ Rob 13 Talk 14:50, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I've emailed with some thoughts. GABgab 00:04, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I've spoken with Rob. I'm going to turn on the Bat-Signal: and, I'd appreciate your thoughts. GABgab 01:56, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm inclined to believe this is Samat lib. Compare with past sockpuppet Special:Contributions/Kokobenin (supporting Samat lib on AFD, adding a similar little ditty to one's user/user talk page - Special:diff/804706902 Special:diff/804707668 Special:diff/661667057 Special:diff/661667619). Looking at Samat lib's edits you start to notice he has a very unique writing style, he often uses odd spacing/capitalization, and this matches up perfectly with Rita magnoo (example: vs ).

 * Sock, Samat lib blocked for 2 weeks. Any admin may extend that latter block if they believe it is too lenient. Closing. GABgab 13:28, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
