Blocked user Kingcutie under new sockpuppet HDClear

It appears that user Kingcutie is once again vandalizing his brother's wikipedia page under sockpuppet HDClear, for which he was previously banned by you.

It's not entirely clear to me how to proceed with bringing attention to this.

WIKI PAGE: Har Mar Superstar

OLD USER: User:Kingcutie

NEW USER: User talk:HDClear

Teenagers who never do anything useful and just sign each other's guestbooks all day

Do we really need to be indeffing them for it, though? It seems harmless, and some of them may become productive editors. jp×g🗯️ 03:45, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sock

Hi Bbb23,

This user Jessephu edited an article on Ben Okri's book and left an edit summary saying, "edited #everybookitsreader". Probably was a new user. Here again, Olaasunbo edited that page I why same or almost edit summaries here and here. However, I don't think these same user has done bad with it or maybe didn't know the implication og shocking. I'll suggest giving them a warn or blocking the alternative. Regards. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 11:09, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SafariScribe@Bbb23 i am sorry about this, i was logged out y the network over here, hence the mistake. will take note. Jessephu (talk) 11:14, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jessephu, the thing there is that you have to disclose all other accounts you've created and list them here so that Bbb23 will help analyse them and block them as well (it is his decision). You will be left with one account to avoid socking. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 11:17, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Olaasunbo is a new account actually which does not belong to me , was taking the user on how to edit on Wikipedia Jessephu (talk) 11:21, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will leave Bbb23 to see that. I have no talk here. I will also advise, if it belongs to you, disclose that. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 11:26, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SafariScribe thanks for the advice tho I really appreciate Jessephu (talk) 11:29, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ekpa-SPI update

[1] Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:34, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I commented at the SPI.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:53, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Something fishy going on here!

Just found a cryptocurrency enthusiast article of Waqar Zaka. It looks promotional, and looks being updated by paid editors and being sued by some paid editors. Even after being two time AFD they saved it. Looks like this cryptocurrency enthusiast got another Article, and this one advertise him in different way. (This )

 I only found this source reliable, but the content is just a short chit-chat interview. Other than that, not much was found. This seems old page which encourages COI culture. What do you think we should do?

Lkomdis (talk) 18:10, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What does this have to do with me?--Bbb23 (talk) 18:13, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How we can discourage this type of COI editing, you have years of experience as an administrator!.
Lkomdis (talk) 18:29, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Enough years to know that I have no interest in these issues. I suppose you could take it to WP:COIN, although I didn't look enough to determine how much merit your allegations have.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:37, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, for your suggestion, I appreciate your reply. Lkomdis (talk) 18:41, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does this need an SPI

Just looking for some advice, but I spotted a certain similarity between this pair of edits edits[2][3] and again with this pair.[4][5] -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested «@» °∆t° 19:29, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No SPI needed. Blocked and tagged. Good catch. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:54, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

SPI

Hi Bbb23, hope you're doing well. Can you please look into this SPI? It has been up there for almost two months now. Sutyarashi (talk) 15:13, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The evidence you've provided are mobile links. Please provide non-mobile diffs.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:33, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi. I asked this question on Courcelles talk about opening an investigation. It's been over a week now with no response, and I noticed Courcelles hasn't been editing since early April. If it's ok, could you look at my comment and tell me if I should open an investigation? Thanks. Vanezi (talk) 07:22, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like there's a lot of bad blood flowing among various editors in a rather contentious area. I looked at your post to Courcelles's Talk page a little, but it's way too complicated for me to evaluate easily, and I have no interest in spending the time to review it more deeply. If you do file a report at SPI, you should use diffs as evidence, not links.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:24, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand if you're not interested to review it more thoroughly, the AA2 topic area is quite tiring at times. I opened the investigation for clerks/admins to review. Thanks for your time. Vanezi (talk) 19:57, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Weatherextremes: If you need technical help, please ask at WP:VPT or a similar venue. Don't send the screenshots to me, though, as I have nothing to do with that case.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:52, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the reply. Who should I go about this case? Any admin to direct me to? Weatherextremes (talk) 23:59, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks to me like you've sent the same e-mail to Girth Summit - he's involved in the case.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:00, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok cheers! Weatherextremes (talk) 00:01, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
