 * Suspected sockpuppets


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

All three of these accounts have made the same type of edits: Removing content from Korea-related articles without explaining why. After I warn a (supposedly) brand new user about making those kinds of edits, another (supposedly) brand new user reverts me, also without explaining why they're removing the content. Also, note that the names of all three accounts are a bunch of random/incoherent letters. Therefore, I believe that all three of these accounts are throwaways being used by the same person, and also that there could be more of them in the future.

Here are some diffs, as requested:
 * Asdjioasjdio removing content without an explanation:, , ,
 * Ehdeehduru reverting my reverts of Asdjioasjdio, also with no explanation:, ,
 * Fhtbebe5jjyb reverting my reverts of Ehdeehduru (second edit seems to have a Korean edit summary, but I obviously have no clue what it says): ,

Note that all of these linked diffs are the only edits made by each account. As I said, they seem to be throwaways being used by the same person. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 01:52, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Whoa...this sockfarm is way bigger than I expected. This definitely reinforces my theory that the same person is (or a few of the same people are) behind a bunch of throwaways. Clearly, many of these accounts have been used to make subtle but disruptive changes to articles about Korean people and places. I think we definitely need to be on the lookout for more of them in the future, if this CU finding is any indication. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 22:35, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  10:31, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
