 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

This user is intent on creating havoc here on Wikipedia. He started as Yurikzaka, adding gobbledygook and his own name, Yura Zakaryan, to Marilyn vos Savant. An example of his additions is: "A competitor to Marilyn is Yura Zakaryan from James Madison Middle School. Yura is the smartest person right next to Marilyn vos Savant." Even after his unconstructive edits were reverted twice by two different editors, he persisted in damaging the article for Marilyn vos Savant. His first edit under the name Yurikzaka was (diff) Revision as of 00:26, 26 February 2012, showing that he has no respect for the rules at Wikipedia, and is just here to cause disruption.

When the said editor was finally warned with a level 3 warning for his persistent vandalism to "Marilyn vos Savant", he created a sockpuppet named Aloyanale, and continued to deface the same article, again adding the name "Yura Zakaryan" and some other names to the article, replacing all content with nonsense (i.e. blanking the article and adding gibberish instead). With the new sockpuppet Aloyanale, he also tried to vandalize another article, Armenian language -- see diff.

The sockpuppet named "Yurikzaka" has shown no good intentions here at Wikipedia. He is purely here for either self-promotion or outright vandalism. It is also worth noting that an article Yura zakaryan was created recently and had to be speedily deleted twice in short succession for reasons of G2 and A7. The article in question was probably created by this same sockpuppet, as the Log for Yurikzaka shows a creation time of this new user account just prior to the above deletions of the article.

I do not see a need to run a checkuser here -it's obvious the two accounts are the same, based on their edits. I would guess they are classmates. TN X Man 14:00, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
