Suspected sockpuppets
All of them keep creating the same hoax userpage with claims of being a president of Turkey and shareholder in multiple companies. The list is based on accounts that I came across in recent-changes patrolling, as well as a quarry for usernames containing Samet Yücel. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:29, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I remembered I had seen them before and looked into my CSD-log: they have previously also edited with a different username pattern.– NJD-DE (talk) 21:45, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Just noticed already blocked who seems to be the oldest account (created 30 December 2021). – NJD-DE (talk) 22:24, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Same username pattern, same user pages. As part of the case filed 2 days earlier, I made a comment which fell in the same minutes the case was being closed, and as a result may have been overseen. I still suspect is the actual sockmaster. I believe we might need to move the case under that username. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:06, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Closing as redundant to the filing below. I don't see a compelling benefit to moving the case when they're all blatantly obvious throwaway accounts - and I wouldn't be surprised if there are older accounts than Samet2 out there. Spicy (talk) 03:55, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Fits the pattern of others users in and they've all created identical user pages (which I'm nominating for speedy delete). Hey man im josh (talk) 03:36, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

Any chance we can block user accounts with this name? Or does having it be obvious make catching them easier? Liz Read! Talk! 03:57, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

 * - suppose it's worth a check for any slightly less obvious socks and to see if a rangeblock can be put in place to stop this nonsense (if it hasn't already). Thanks, Spicy (talk) 03:57, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

is an obvious sock (username, userpage). – NJD-DE (talk) 16:50, 24 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Looking at the list of users there's multiple other users fitting the usual username/userpage. Samet19951TS was registered within few moments of SametTS19951. The following users have an enwiki account, haven't made edits here (yet) but created usual hoax userpages on other wikis: cs: Samet Yücel II Trabzon, Samet 6104; sl: Samet Trabzon; fr: Samet Yücel I; de: Samet 1995; es: El Patron Samet. – NJD-DE (talk) 20:51, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Same as usual... for a sleeper check especially since they are now creating accounts to use on other wikis. Thanks,  Spicy (talk) 19:01, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
