I am confident that this is the same individual behind Special:Contributions/Barney's New Man, whom I haven't added above only because the account is already indef blocked. This editor appears to come to Wikipedia from public terminals in and around Columbus, Ohio (often on the OSU campus), making characteristic anti-Semitic or homophobic edits to a variety of articles, including Diet of Worms, Jewish lawyer stereotype, Muffin Spencer-Devlin, List of Jewish economists and List of Rugrats episodes. The subject IPs (some of which were range blocked temporarily a few months ago) include Special:Contributions/164.107.191.108, 164.107.191.102, 140.254.227.56, 140.254.227.185, and 140.254.227.55. There are several other similarly suspicious IPs in these ranges, perhaps as many as 20. I can provide a list of many if any admin is interested. JohnInDC (talk) 18:13, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Here are a couple others, outside the above ranges: 132.235.129.86 (previously rangeblocked), and 174.101.125.106  JohnInDC (talk) 18:17, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
 * These come from a list I've been maintaining separately, to make AIV reports go a little more smoothly. (It goes back maybe 4-5 months - I mark it to a few weeks before this exchange on my Talk page.)  The identity is pretty clear in every case.  It's my entire list and so includes the ones already listed above.  There may also of course be others that I haven't noticed, too.

This guy is my cousin and roommate. A lot of times we have the same IP so I was blocked for awhile. I don't think he really means any harm; he's a wannabe comedian and thinks it's a lot funnier than it is. I can see how it would get really annoying for you guys though. He was bugging me to check out this page so I did. I don't think the username with the racial epithet is his but I know the others are. I've been trying to tell him to cut the crap. Maybe this will convince him.MCM0313 (talk) 02:05, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

My cousin's right-N***let isn't me. Don't know who it is, but it's not me. I'm sure the IP would back me up on this. Gaypoopybuttsexorgy (talk) 03:31, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

 * 174.101.112.0/20 looks somewhat feasible. But I would go for regular single blocks for those. Road Runner is one of our better ISPs. Elockid  ( Talk ) 21:33, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Obvious socks. The usernames (reflecting an anal fixation, or variations on Favonian) are the same variety as prior puppets, and the vandalizing edits (including the characteristic fake template message) are directed at editors who've reported or blocked prior puppets. (In this case, me, Special:Contributions/The Interior and Special:Contributions/Anthony Bradbury.) These two socks were quickly blocked for vandalism but I am reporting them anyhow in case someone wants to look for sleepers, or consider an IP rangeblock to head off this persistent abuser. If these post-facto reports aren't that helpful, please let me know. Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 01:28, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I've added another obvious sock, already blocked for vandalism - three edits, all vandalism, one to my user page. JohnInDC (talk) 02:30, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

The former admits his puppetry on this Talk page; the latter, already blocked for vandalism, exhibits the characteristic "prank" of a fake sockpuppet notice on the Talk page of other editors who revert him. He also helpfully links there to the name of one of his own prior socks. Diff here. Requesting checkuser to check for sleepers. JohnInDC (talk) 02:06, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I've added 3 IPs, all with subject edits directly to pages of or relating to prior puppets, for the sake of completeness and in case any admin action in connection with them is deemed necessary. The edits from these IPs are all at least a few days old.  JohnInDC (talk) 02:55, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Two more IPs, the latter (.60) still unblocked and editing. Evidence is, these are in the same IP range as prior socks and their contribution histories show substantial overlap with prior puppets. JohnInDC (talk) 00:14, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Characteristic edits (anti-U Michigan, homophobic), typical theme for typically offensive name (echoing prior sock Hoez2Pimp); already reported at AIV and may be blocked by now, but reporting here too to ensure all socks are tracked. Requesting CU for sleepers but edit evidence is certainly sufficient. JohnInDC (talk) 16:45, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Supersexuallyswell is already blocked for vandalism, then Fovanina added an abusive unblock request to User talk:Supersexuallyswell. Fovanina also vandalised User talk:Hoez2Pimp in a similar style to Supersexuallyswell, so those two appear to be connected. Hoez2Pimp is already blocked as a sock of Yummyanaljuices, and the styles of all four seem very similar. Might be worth doing a sleeper check too? -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:03, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Three vandalism-only accounts have as their focus the Talk pages of editors who've previously reported or had interaction with this master's puppets. All three of the above were quickly blocked but I suggest a CU to 1) check for sleepers and 2) evaluate a rangeblock for the associated IPs. This editor has been pretty active lately - see this list of contributions for a list of recent socks who have not necessarily been reported here. (The list should probably include that IP too - the detective work is a little too good to be believable.) JohnInDC (talk) 00:13, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah just noticed the prior SSI report on one of these editors already, along with the comment about CU. That one opened and closed quickly!  JohnInDC (talk) 00:16, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
