Suspected sockpuppets[edit]


Pretty obvious overlap with Cuba-related topics, Wakefern Food Corporation and other companies. The last account seems to have continued just where Nozttradamuz left it when blocked. MarioGom (talk) 23:29, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Looks like a duck to me The interaction analysis tool shows a great deal of overlap - some articles about companies, some about geographic places and people. Editing style is also similar, almost never using edit summaries, and similar style when they do. Blocked and tagged. GirthSummit (blether) 16:55, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of days after the last block, resumed the activity without change at List of largest private non-governmental companies by revenue. MarioGom (talk) 10:43, 2 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a weird way of admitting it: [1]. The user couldn't help but continue editing Wakefern Food Corporation. --MarioGom (talk) 23:07, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • CheckUser requested and endorsed by clerk - Bitholov and Tivorr are virtually certain to be the same person; the later was created just a few hours after the former was blocked, and there's remarkable overlap. As these are the only two non-stale accounts, CU confirmation of them would help establish a baseline for future investigations. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:57, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Also, while I'm sure Tivorr and Bitholov are the same, and likewise the Nos/z twins, I'm not totally convinced they all trace back to Cgx8253. Just something for future investigators to consider. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:07, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tivorr is  Confirmed to Bitholov and even to Cgx8253 (CU now tracks logins).  Blocked and tagged, closing. Mz7 (talk) 06:55, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Use the same wrong rationale of member of the list of Fortune Global 500 = private company to claim Greenland Holdings is a private company. Special:Diff/998165726, Special:Diff/1006876950 Matthew hk (talk) 14:42, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Account created less than one hour after the last block. The two first edits are to the usual favorite pages of the user. Similar cross-wiki usage (see CentralAuth). MarioGom (talk) 18:50, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am not a clerk, but looking at the person's contributions, I can say that it's likely a sock of Cgx8253 due to habit of editing in the same page without edit summaries. MarioJump83! 08:57, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
