Suspected sockpuppets


Evidence submitted by Fæ

Both accounts are SPA. ID9.. created their user page with {{hi}} as did Moneyfizza. Both accounts are engaged in the same discussion thread (http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Labshare#Synthesis_problem) with the same point of view a nd Moneyfizza was created at 6:57 after ID9..'s last contribution at 6:30. WP:QUACK would seem to apply so checkuser not required. Fæ (talk) 07:07, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Similarly the SPA Hardrockfan203 created shortly after Moneyfizza stopped contributing to the same talk page. Fæ (talk) 07:13, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

The SPA KevinDogg35 was active 6:35 to 6:50 (just before Moneyfizza was created) with similar edits. Fæ (talk) 07:52, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Added a further 4 for consideration. Mostly SPA contributions with account creation and contribution timing dovetailing perfectly. WP:QUACK applies. Fæ (talk) 08:26, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Finally, if anyone has any doubt, consider the demonstrated sock of MileyFan, User:ID9082375835 (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs). The name varies only by one digit from the primary account originally considered here. Fæ (talk) 23:40, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Taking a quick guess User:Labsdir and User:Uts is the world is also involved. wiooiw (talk) 08:23, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
Labsdir has been warned for COI, they are an employee but probably not a sock. The second has only made one contribution to the talk page and does not seem that relevant. Fæ (talk) 08:31, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
User striked out reverted ID908237835. wiooiw (talk) 08:35, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
