Thanks, and request for help!

Hello! Hope you're well. Thank you for confirming that we have indeed been dealing with extremely persistent vandalism and sockpuppetry on the Russians at War Misplaced Pages page. I have filed an Edit Request and another editor has placed a notice on the administrator's noticeboard, but as it stands, one of the bad versions of the page written by one of the socks is still published.

In light of that information could you please aid us in reverting the page to the previous, balanced version instead of the current version that is essentially a poorly-sourced and whitewashed piece of PR propaganda for the film, written by the now-banned socks.

This is the version we need that the socks have been trying to erase (I personally still think it sounds too promotional but at this point I'll take what I can get):

No, I have no idea what the correct version is. What is your relationship to User:0lida0, who is also active at that article's talk page? --jpgordon 15:07, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
This is my backup for that account for dealing with suspected Russian trolls as I don't want to be harassed by them on my main account. As you can see, they're quite persistent and I often don't have the energy to deal with them. Stoptheprop (talk) 19:11, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
Further context:
Talk:Russians at War#Propose previous version of page be restored Stoptheprop (talk) 19:24, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
So, basically, you've been socking to avoid scrutiny. I'm blocking both accounts. --jpgordon 20:51, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Your signature

Could you fix your signature? Your talk page link has random box characters in them (which display "01D 122"). On another computer, it just comes as boxes. TheTechie@enwiki (she/they | talk) 04:35, 30 November 2024 (UTC)

I would've uploaded an image but Commons kept saying that my file name was too generic (yeah right). TheTechie@enwiki (she/they | talk) 04:42, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
Interesting that nobody has complained in the many years I've used those four unicode characters. Hey lurkers (do I have any lurkers? hello?), are my musical characters legible? --jpgordon 05:02, 30 November 2024 (UTC)

Galopindeschamps

You recently blocked sockpuppets of Budisgood. Now there is another brand new editor user:Galopindeschamps working on the same articles as Budisgood. I am hesitant about another sockpuppet investigation. What do you think? The Banner talk 19:02, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Oh hell yes. CU-blocked. --jpgordon 19:18, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
I reverted some of 'em, could you get the rest? (Gotta run.) --jpgordon 19:22, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
Okay, I will take care of it. The Banner talk 19:25, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
