Per the findings at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/A portah29, Thebgcbaffie and The Texas state are socks of The fashionable baby.

Their modus operandi appears to be to add hoax info to Bad Girls Club articles, specifically fake cast members.

  • The fashionable baby (created March 19): [1], [2], [3]
  • The Texas state (created March 22): [4], [5], [6]
  • Thebgcbaffie (created April 6): [7], [8]
  • Kiyannahoe (created May 9): [9], [10], [11], [12]
  • Ilovezoey101andbgc (created May 9 by Kiyannahoe per user logs)

Check user requested to (1) confirm the most recent accounts to the past three and (2) to look for other sleepers since Kiyannahoe already created a backup amount. EvergreenFir (talk) 04:21, 9 May 2017 (UTC) EvergreenFir (talk) 04:21, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: on the other SPI page, Bbb23 said "The fashionable baby and Thebgcbaffie are Confirmed to The Texas state and are blocked without tags." They were unrelated to A portah29, right? So I thought the appropriate thing to do when I noticed a suspected new sock of those three, unrelated-to-A portah29 accounts was to open a new SPI for them under the oldest account. Should I have kept them under the other unrelated sock master's SPI? EvergreenFir (talk) 04:33, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oh, I may have missed that. Well, Bbb23 may show up here and set stuff straight, if he ever gets out of that bordello. Drmies (talk) 04:37, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Drmies and Bbb23: Thank you both! EvergreenFir (talk) 14:43, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

EvergreenFir, I'm sorry, but why did you start a new SPI when these users are linked to another SPI? Am I missing something? And let's ping Bbb23 while we're at it... Drmies (talk) 04:27, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

More insertion of hoax material into America's Next Top Model's season's articles.

First sock: [24][25] Second sock: [26][27] Third sock: [28][29]

I'm requesting a CheckUser to see if there are any more socks I've missed out/sleepers, and to see if a block on their IP or a range block is possible. Thanks. Linguisttalk|contribs 23:47, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Additional information needed - @Linguist111: In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
  1. At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
  2. At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
  3. In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this. Vanjagenije (talk) 19:35, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reopening the RealMissVoodo SPI with this filing. Today I came across Dreamdoll and immediately recognized it as the article deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DreamDoll. The tone is the same, the text is more or less the same, and the article was created in its entirety by an ostensibly new editor. I looked at User:PinkThingz's edit history and sure enough they began editing on 11 April (first edit [101] creating Dreamdoll with a single edit), the day after Realmissvodoo was banned for being a sockmaster. The new sock account has also recreated Realmissvodoo's article Life in Plastic as Life in Plastic (Dreamdoll EP). This is a clear case of a DUCK and another attempt by Realmissvodoo to force Dreamdoll onto Wikipedia. I would also recommend a salting of all four articles.

Comment I am pretty sure I added tags such as COI and notability tags which were removed by PinkThingz on both Dreamdoll and Life in Plastic. If my memory is correct I also remember that PinkThingz created the article in the draftspace or userspace and bypassed AfC. This will be easy for you to see the in the deleted logs if your an admin, but they are some suspicious things I noticed. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 19:24, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Quack quack. Changing names to fictional ones on BGC pages. [102]. Compare to past sock: [103]. Also abuse evident in edit filter.

CU requests for confirmation and sleeper check given history and persistence.

Adding Xxosedna based on name pattern and edit topic overlap. Similar edits too: [104]. Also see the filter log.

Please also see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Realmissvoodoo/Archive#27_August_2018 which had a sock with a similar name. My money is on this being the sockmaster of them all EvergreenFir (talk) 22:45, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Christ these reality show pages are a mess of socks and bad edits.

Compare: old sock and Juniebug1997gomaz. Though I think it was Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/A portah29/Archive that had a history of changing reasons for cast member removal. Check out the archive discussion. EvergreenFir (talk) 23:08, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I was digging into the SPIs and blocked accounts related to BGC... it seems like there's a number of possible sock masters to consider (e.g., Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Starbucks6789). If anyone who can access ip data or whatnot can try to sort these out based on geolocation and edits styles, it might help. EvergreenFir (talk) 08:22, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Confirmed to the master:

 Possible to A portah29 based on geolocation and the checkuser log:

Good call, EvergreenFir. The confirmed accounts are using specific IPs that have been used by the master in the past and some of these socks are sharing the same IP as Ilovesnooki25 from Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Realmissvoodoo and intersect on multiple ranges. These cases should be merged by a clerk. As far as I can tell, no checkuser would have been able to have made that connection from the log before because the precise technical overlap is new. Blocking the confirmed accounts. Starbucks6789 case appears Red X Unrelated based on checkuser log.
 — Berean Hunter (talk) 11:58, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • As an aside, Starbucks6789 is an edit warrior, not a vandal. He likes the articles a certain way and will edit war until blocked to maintain his preferred style. Starbucks6789 is definitely unrelated to this case, but Rpdrchbb is a sock of Starbucks6789. In fact, I think everyone who edits Bad Girl Club, The Challenge, Ink Master, and Ru Paul's Drag Race is a sock. I blocked Juniebug1997gomaz as a sock of A portah29 based on the above result and my own behavioral investigation. The other major sock on these articles is Leviathan648.

Recreated Draft:DreamDoll, which was previously created by a sock of User:Realmissvoodoo, later identified as a sock of TFB.

@NinjaRobotPirate: that's quite a coincidence if so. Any other usual suspects? Maybe Realmissvoodoo wasn't actually TFB?
Just dug this up.

Norbson12 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Compare [110] to [111]. Also Norbson12 created DREAMDOLL which was salted by RHaworth. EvergreenFir (talk) 05:47, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It seems like everyone has gone stale, so this will probably have to be decided by behavioral evidence, but that's an interesting find. The articles are pretty different from each other, though. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 06:25, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@NinjaRobotPirate: It's a frickin' mess. Back in January, Berean Hunter helped sort out some of this (see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/The_fashionable_baby/Archive#03_January_2019) by connecting Realmissvoodoo to TFB. A few other things I found while digging:
  • Special:Contributions/PinkThingz seems to be related to all this, and was the first sock of Realmissvoodoo to be reported. Note the edits related to DreamDoll
  • [112] vs this old edit [113]
I'll keep an eye on the account regardless. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:11, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Interestingly, this one is in a different country than The fashionable baby. Maybe random chance? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:23, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Confirmed to The fashionable baby.  No sleepers immediately visible. Would a clerk please move this report to the appropriate casename? No tags per DENY. Thank you.

I am blocking this user as a suspected sock (DUCK per target pages Bad Girls Club anne creation of fake contestants [114]). Possibly Starbucks6789 though based on messing with cast duration sections. Requesting CU for confirmation and sleeper check. Extensive history of socking. EvergreenFir (talk) 06:49, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Given the past 3 cases were sleeper negative, i'm going to pass on this one. Also CUs in the archive have driven away from Starbucks6789. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 08:27, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • @EvergreenFir: CU doesn't reveal much - all the old accounts are stale. CU logs indicate that this account is in the same large country as previous accounts, but not much more than that. There aren't any other accounts on the IP ranges they're using.  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation Girth Summit (blether) 12:37, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reopening with CU request after the user posted an unblock request. Not sure if technical data are available, but I fins the naming pattern, area of editing, and content edited to be DUCK. EvergreenFir (talk) 04:20, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Confirmed to Janeantm15, who is also now blocked. There is undoubtedly some improper use of multiple accounts going on. Don't see any other accounts. Closing. Girth Summit (blether) 09:45, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Actually, I'll add to this - I just combed through the CU logs, and I'm going to call these two accounts  Confirmed to the proposed master. Girth Summit (blether) 09:51, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
