NYIT

Hi, thanks for keeping up with the sockpuppets editing NYIT. However, each day new socks are being created to make disruptive edits. Can the NYIT page be semi-protected to prevent new users from editing the page for the time being? MlaneNYIT (talk) 20:29, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi, please disregard request as page is now semi-protected. MlaneNYIT (talk) 03:45, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
Alright. Sadly, it does appear to be necessary. Cheers ​—DoRD (talk)​ 03:59, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
Thanks once again for the vigilance in keeping up with our persistent 'companion'. MlaneNYIT (talk) 13:55, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Semi?

Semi, perhaps? Bishonen | talk 13:21, 6 April 2014 (UTC).

Heh...I just did. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:22, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
I saw, and was trying to remove my comment — there was no edit conflict, but you apparently "won". :-) Maybe that's what happens if two people edit exactly simultaneously, or something. Bishonen | talk 13:24, 6 April 2014 (UTC).
Depends on the two people. :-) Actually, I find it annoying when you don't conflict because of the timing of the two edits.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:57, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Another one

I blocked User:DoRDalternate. I don't have the ability to do a CU block, so I tagged them as "suspected". Feel free to do whatever you want with the tag, including removing it. Funny how they impersonate you and go after me.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:54, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

It's him, of course, so I changed the tag. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 15:24, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

SockPuppet Investigation Immediately closed by an administrator when the accused requested him to close it- Need Immediate attention

Hi User:DoRD,

I had opened a sock puppet investigation on two users Shriram and Lihaas on India General election page- Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet_investigations/Shriram. One of them suddently made a request to another Administrator ( RequestMadeHere ) to close the investigation and the page was immediately closed.

Excerpt- User:JamesBWatson, I would think canvassing around for his view is turning disruptive. (Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Shriram) How about a topic ban?Lihaas (talk) 14:44, 10 April 2014 (UTC)


The immediate closure of topic looks suspicious. Please do the necessary.


Thanks Soorejmg (talk) 15:52, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

I see nothing wrong with JamesBWatson's reasoning, but if you disagree, please contact him rather than canvassing uninvolved admins. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 16:06, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Latest sock of Daffyduck1234

Hi. You CU-blocked Pomloverborn1999, a sock of Daffyduck1234. Now the editor User:GoldenCorral is editing the same suite of articles. Could you check to see if this is the same editor and block if appropriate? Thanks. BMK (talk) 14:10, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

That account and CocacolaRock (talk · contribs) are  Confirmed socks. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 14:38, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
No problem, thanks for the quick action. BMK (talk) 14:39, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

It's probable that User:Hellomyfairkitty is the latest sock. Although there's only one article overlap (Theresa Caputo), the pattern is exactly the same. BMK (talk) 04:18, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

They and Dodomother5985 are the latest socks. Cheers ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:35, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Topbill1818 might be another. BMK (talk) 20:03, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Yep, plus three others. :\ ​—DoRD (talk)​ 21:01, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Abusive socks of IpH95

I understand that some of the following accounts are extremely abusive, but could you please tag them for the record (well, the ones that are confirmed)?

Thanks LightandDark2000 (talk) 06:46, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
And based on the continued abuse of other users (including both direct and indirect personal attacks), should a WP:LTA be opened for him? He's been actively socking since August 2011, and I highly doubt that he's going to stop anytime soon. The personal attacks have been quite hurtful to some of the users, and the rest are very concerning. LightandDark2000 (talk) 06:47, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
The last account you listed above must have a typo in the name because it is not a registered account. Anyway, in reply to this and the message below, they're all blocked, but I will not be tagging them because it is counterproductive. Likewise for the LTA page. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:29, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Oops. Sorry about that. The actual username was: KaabiiNoHoshi. LightandDark2000 (talk) 22:02, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Please Help

Please help me. I think that User:Mr Wiki Pro supports Barack Obama is trolling me, because during four different days, he thanked me repetitively (49 times to be exact) for my edits to my Blocked section for no apparent reason, causing an "overload" in my notifications. I'm worried that he might be trolling me, and I don't know what to do. I don't like being abused by other users, and I'm hoping that you might have some solution to this problem? LightandDark2000 (talk) 07:05, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

By the way, User:Mr Wiki Pro did this using 4 different sock accounts:
You might want to tag these accounts, but that's entirely up to you. I think that we might need to get help from some other admins in order to stop his socking and his abuse of other users. LightandDark2000 (talk) 10:35, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Okay. I understand that they're going to be left untagged. However, I would really appreciate it if someone could find someone to keep him from coming back and spamming our notification bars. It's extremely agitating. LightandDark2000 (talk) 22:12, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
He just spammed my talk page, using User:Mr Wiki Pro ( fan of Barack Obama). He also abused me by adding a template to my user page without my permission. Can you please rangeblock him for a month? Thanks. LightandDark2000 (talk) 22:29, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Thank you so much for blocking him. :) LightandDark2000 (talk) 22:33, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

You're welcome, but I have to ask again: What part of "do not edit SPI archives" do you not understand? ​—DoRD (talk)​ 22:37, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Oh. So sorry about that. LightandDark2000 (talk) 22:59, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

One more sock of Wiki pro

Hi DoRD. Here is yet another sock: User:LightandDark2000, pls be my friend. Thank you. Δρ.Κ.  23:42, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

Do you mean LightandDark2000, pls be my friend? —C.Fred (talk) 23:50, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for reverting the edits on my talk, Dr.K. and C.Fred. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 23:53, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Yes, that's him. Please get rid of him for me, as I am feeling extremely uncomfortable about this attack. Can you please rangeblock him as well, in order to prevent him from continuously abusing me (and other users)? Thanks. LightandDark2000 (talk)
