another blatant sock of this blocked sockmaster, only editing AfD's for, and Articles created by, User:Vigneswaran Rajkumar Wuh  Wuz  Dat  02:27, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Evidence submitted by Wuh  Wuz  Dat
 * Adding Fauziah93, as yet another sock of this serial socker. Wuh  Wuz  Dat  16:41, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

User:Rhythm live (currently blocked as yet another of this family of socks) asks for and recieves advice on an article related to this socks editing pattern, then is subsequently blocked for his blatant socking activities (block evasion, etc).
 * Evidence submitted by Wuh  Wuz  Dat

IP 119.234.0.2 then makes precisely the same edit that was suggested to Rhythm live.

Geolocation of this IP corresponds with that of a previously blocked IP sock of this master.

This user currently has 5 blocked socks, all in the course of a single week. Wuh Wuz  Dat  03:05, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

User:Eveswing, previously identified as a "likely" sock of this confirmed sockmaster, has since edited the Afd for No Ten Dollars Ride, an article by User:Vigneswaran Rajkumar. Perhaps it is time to stop assuming good faith on the part of the sockmaster, as he continues to sock, despite numerous warnings, and 2 blocks Wuh  Wuz  Dat  05:06, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

I am aware of scrict pollicies of wikipedia and account abuse and violation. I am editing articles that are in interest of singapore and within the scope of WikiProject Singaporean Arts and Entertainment. Since my ip range is similar to the sockpuppet, i am being taged as one of the user. Please investigate and review my account. The admin above states that "Perhaps it is time to stop assuming good faith on the part of the sockmaster, as he continues to sock, despite numerous warnings". I have just created an account to contribute in good faith of wikipedia and what warnings does the admin talks about. Please review my case. eve swing (talk) 03:56, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

If i find any supporting article information and scopes within wiki i will be taged for sockpuppet? if i voice out my comments on article that are taged for deletion i will be taged for sockpuppet? if i come from singapore and share a ip with same range i will be taged for sockpuppet? i just created a account in "good faith" to edit article that lack information i will taged for sockpuppet and i voice out my comment i will be marked as "bad faith". eve swing (talk) 04:42, 27 December 2009 (UTC) My inclusion of Eveswing as a suspected sock in this investigation has nothing to do with his IP range (due to my NOT being an admin, I have no knowledge of his IP address(es), nor have I ever claimed to be an admin), but rather due to the combination of his edits at Articles for deletion/No Ten Dollars Ride, and his previous identification as a "likely" sockpuppet below.

 * Eveswing is another sockpuppet. I have also blocked a couple of IP ranges. Dominic·t 05:05, 22 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Conclusions
 * Socks blocked indefinitely. Master seems to have potential to become a good editor, so will leave him be for now. NW ( Talk ) 01:04, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

User:Eveswing and User:Vigneswaran Rajkumar are now indefinitely blocked per both behavioral and technical evidence. The sockmaster has had plenty of chances here, and he has used them all. –MuZemike 21:57, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
