Both editors share an unusual interest on both Soviet tanks as well as Royalty related articles.[1][2] Both are Brazilians: the "rj" in "Paulomazzeirj" stands to "Rio de Janeiro" and Ilhador is a Portuguese name. Ilhador has voted on a page move request today and a few hours later Paulomazzeirj did the same. It's odd since Paulomazzeirj hasn't made any edit for almost 2 years. Why would he appear on an article he never contributed today after so long? Lastly, both users seem to enjoy quite a lot moving articles. --Lecen (talk) 21:47, 24 January 2012 (UTC) Lecen (talk) 21:47, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • I wasn't 100% convinced about this originally (though I agree it looked very suspicious). But I just saw this vote at the RM, which also supported the move (the same position as -Ilhador- and Paulomazzeirj). See -PRPM- (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki). Similar pattern in that the few edits it has made are relating to page moves and it hasn't edited since 2008. Most concerning is that the username is very similar to -Ilhador- in that it uses hyphens at both ends. Jenks24 (talk) 04:56, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • This third one ("-PRPM-") has also made a few edits on soviet tanks. --Lecen (talk) 12:05, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think I can hear something quacking - checked per that, the overlap, and the significant concern of !vote fraud.

  • Paulomazzeirj is a  Confirmed sock of -Ilhador-.
  • It is extremely  Likely that the same individual operates -PRPM-.

Socks blocked and tagged and the master blocked for 24 hours. WilliamH (talk) 12:35, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, WilliamH. --Lecen (talk) 12:39, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(i) Both Jack Bufalo Head and -Ilhador- follow an unusual campaign to remove the word "decisive" from battle-related infoboxes--see [3] and [4]. (ii) Both Jack Bufalo Head and -Ilhador- make controversial page moves without ever seeking consensus (the edit summary is always : "please discuss it first"): [5], [6], [7], [8] and [9] (Paulomazzeirj was a confirmed sock of -Ilhador-); these moves create a huge mess since they conflate German historical regions with German historical states--see the relevant discussion in my talk-page; also see Cristiano Tomás's complaint about -Ilhador-'s activity. (iii) Jack Bufalo Head restores -Ilhador-'s reverted edits: [10] and [11] (iv) Both Jack Bufalo Head and -Ilhador- keep placing unjustified 'copy edit'-tags in articles about German states--see [12] and [13]. (v) -Ilhador- has already been blocked once for sockmastering; also there is strong evidence that he frequently makes disruptive edits using IPs--see my comment on his talk-page. --Omnipaedista (talk) 06:28, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This request for investigation is related to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Turgeis/Archive . -Ilhador-, Turgeis, Moagim, Jack Buffalo Head, and Izraías are apparently the same editor—already blocked many times before for copyright violations and sockpuppeting ([14]; [15]). He keeps editing the same articles using various IPs (for example 187.14.247.157, 187.15.99.28, 187.15.22.180) and accounts (see also [16]) usually in order to insert original research or get involved in egregious cases of internal copyvio. Usual targets include: [17], [18], [19], [20], [21]. He changes government types [22], [23] (confer [24], [25]) to phrases from Europa Universalis III, and engages in the unusual campaign of removing the word "decisive" from battle-related infoboxes ([26] and [27]): see [28]. --Omnipaedista (talk) 16:35, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
