– An administrator or SPI clerk requires more information to determine what action to take.

Suspected sockpuppets

I see a similar account setup as their previous socks, similar interests, and similar editing patterns. gidonb (talk) 04:40, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

gidonb, all this over a template discussion? There is no evidence I'm a sockpuppet of a user I've never heard of. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 18:39, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

  • His edit summary states "JIC" or Just in case. That is not how a sockpuppetry investigation works. There needs to be evidence as stated on the main page. There must be immediate evidence provided and as gidonb states, "I see a similar account setup as their previous socks, similar interests, and similar editing patterns". That is pretty vague which of course won't be investigated per the rules. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:46, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
I've informed Catchpoke on his talk page. You can find it here. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:59, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
The summary Just In Case came with a change from "he" to "they". It means that I'm not 100% sure of the gender of a person in a discussion. gidonb (talk) 23:39, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
What a spurious nomination by a hypocrite.Catchpoke (talk) 02:54, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for being so careful in your wording, Gidonb. Now would you please comply with the CU request for diffs? -DePiep (talk) 10:11, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
  • I propose this investigation be closed, Blablubbs. It's been four days and no evidence has been provided because Gidonb is only here to cause drama because Catcpoke and I don't agree with him on the Tfd linked above. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 19:28, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

  • @Gidonb:  Additional information needed. 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. --Blablubbs|talk 19:25, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
