Suspected sockpuppets
  • On 9 July 2011 I blocked Theunknownnun with an expiry time of 1 month ‎ (Creating copyright violations: uploading unlicenced photographs in spite of repeated requests and warning).
  • On 17 July, Coorslite created Xiola Gray, an article about a very young female child actress.
  • Xiola Gray is almost identical in kind to a long series of articles - now deleted - by the Theunknownnun.
  • 85.211.124.151 removed the PROD from Sydney Wade - one of Theunknownnun's creations.
  • Passes the duck test, but it may be an odd coincidence; hence CU request. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:56, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Similar username to Wikibabyxxx and has just recreated an article (Sydney Wade) that the Theunknownnun had deleted a while ago. JuneGloom Talk 20:21, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am in no doubt that the two accounts are the same as the user also re-created Lucy Hutchinson (actress) which was also created by Theunknownnun. I have indefinitely blocked the sock and also changed Theunknownnun's block to indefinite.--5 albert square (talk) 21:09, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I must admit it is only a couple of edits that are drawing me here but the couple of edits are both copyright violations and are identical which leads me to believe that these are the same person.

The two edits are to the pages Lorna Fitzgerald and Maisie Smith. If you look you will see that both editors uploaded the exact same images both times. Also, the images appear to have the exact same file name both times which is another reason that I believe these editors are the same. What would be the chances of two editors uploading the exact same files with the exact same file names to Wikipedia?

Evidence includes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lorna_Fitzgerald&diff=prev&oldid=448202855

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maisie_Smith&diff=prev&oldid=437547631

I do appreciate that Crystalnite is now blocked, however the block is only for 31 hours.

I am requesting CheckUser for a couple of reasons. Firstly just to confirm my suspicions that these are the same editors and secondly because I think (though I'm not 100% certain) sleepers have been found before for this user. 5 albert square (talk) 23:05, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would execute this request, in order to confirm the duckish suspicions and find potential sleepers. — Kudu ~I/O~ 23:22, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Like Theunkownnun and their other accounts - this account raised an eyebrow with me and another editor straight away. All edits go to minor children associated with British Soap Operas. This user focuses on editing articles about soap opera children and their BLP counterparts. RaintheOne BAM 20:11, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Did a check per the quacking and history of abusing multiple accounts. The following are  Confirmed slepeers of Theunknownnun:

XxEastEndersFanxx is technically Red X Unrelated to these, but from my editorial point of view, it's an obvious sock. WilliamH (talk) 21:00, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Almost identical username to the last sock that was brought here. They are editing/creating articles about young child actors as per the sockmaster. JuneGloom Talk 21:48, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A trademark that comes with a sock from this user is "xx" - Their chosen subject is always soap operas - their favourite sub category is children in soap opera. As ever and matching all previous socks, this user is adding children to infoboxes, editing childrens entries.. If you check them over you'll spot the pattern in a couple of seconds. Isn't there anything else that could be done either? The blocks clearly are not working. RaintheOne BAM 03:03, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think User:Demilealouise may be related. The majority of this user's edits are to British soap opera characters, particularly those who are young or have children, and young actresses. - JuneGloom Talk 15:45, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Inconclusive on technical evidence, but the editing behaviors make this bloody obvious. –MuZemike 22:16, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think you can. I'll be keeping a close watch on User:Demilealouise's edits and the concerned articles. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:44, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
