* I have come here because I am investigating an unblock appeal for {{u|みたら}} on UTRS. The editor claims to be an innocent unrelated user caught by the block. So far they have edits on Japanese Wikipedia and on Wikidata, but not on English Wikipedia. The account was globally locked, but has now been unlocked, as explained above by {{u|EPIC}}. Unfortunately, checking numerous pages on Japanese Wikipedia via Google translate is far too troublesome for me to do anything remotely like enough checking to reach any conclusion, but I have seen nothing which looks to me as though it connects this account to any of the others that I have looked at. Also nobody on Japanese Wikipedia has, so far as I can see, raised any question of sockpuppetry. The evidence of abuse on en.wikipedia is nill, as the account has never edited. That leaves only the CU evidence, which must be regarded as inconclusive, as {{u|HJ Mitchell}} & {{u|Blablubbs}} read it differently. Under those circumstances I believe we have to assume good faith and unblock. The same may or may not apply to other accounts listed here, but I have not checked any others.

Comments by other users
- Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.
- After reading up on some of the CU comments, do we know the extent of their disruption on the Japanese Wikipedia? My big concerns with these socks are that they're either Isechika (whose names in Japanese are offensive, outing editors, or otherwise unacceptable - not to mention more harmful edits to mainspace) or they're using en wiki's general unfamiliarity with them to register a ton of accounts to disrupt globally. I do think they're minimally disruptive here at worst, and harmless (albeit prolific) here. If it's a waste of CU resources and time, I'm alright to cease submitting any further requests for this sockmaster in spite of my concerns. Schrödinger's jellyfish ✉ 21:39, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
- Going off of:
- 嬋點嬋ブイ (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- it does look like they're just registering here and attempting to go over to ja wiki. Schrödinger's jellyfish ✉ 21:42, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
- @0xDeadbeef and @Spicy. They were changed their editing patterns and started to vandalize articles after getting confirmed. see देंकृध्यानपया (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) -Lemonaka 04:54, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
- This is what usually happens on jawiki. This has happened before, however. (see this, for example). ClumsyOwlet (talk) 13:11, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

- Based on the edit filter, I also found:
- 嫗瑰蘋嫗 極 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- 嫗瑰蘋嫗シティ (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- 嫗瑰蘋嫗のわお! (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- I have to ask, because I keep wondering. Is there any indication that systematically seeking out, compiling, checking and blocking these accounts is ultimately providing a tangible benefit from an abuse prevention perspective? As far as I can tell, many of them never edit enwiki, and the ones that do only do so on their own talk pages. Basically all of them are long gone by the time they are blocked. Now, it is undesirable for someone to constantly produce these accounts, no doubt about it. But considering that getting blocked by the hundreds for years on end has done nothing to dissuade them, I'm not sure whether it's worth our time. Ultimately, it seems that the outcome remains essentially the same whether or not we end up investing our time: The accounts still get made, they still post a few words about building renovations or somesuch on their talk pages, and that cycle still repeats, with basically no reader-facing consequences. --Blablubbs (talk) 19:28, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- I very much agree. There's no point to blocking them and I'd even argue that even just blocking them would go a bit against WP:DENY. Though won't they run out of IP addresses? They seem to be really good at block evasion. I think in the case where the occasional user vandalizes and removes mentions of Aspergers syndrome, we can always use protection. 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 04:15, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

- the history of this case should indicate that that is very unlikely. Spicy (talk) 16:09, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

...Wow, OK, I'm going to do this in parts because it's breaking the template...
Non-obvious ducks here:
The first three socks (ਗੈਪ ਹੈ, Упгаз, ጋዝሉፔ) are tagged incorrectly and should be tagged to this case.
سپئا has a very similar username to a previous sockpuppet, سپئاە.
އަޕެގަރްޒުއާ އެވެ ("Apegaruza is") is probably an anagram of Asperger's and it's unlikely for anyone to register a Dhivehi name on the English Wikipedia.
AspergerNext is the oldest account tagged to Bulut on jawiki.
Everything else either is a WP:DUCK (editing their talk page), has some form of "Aspe" in their name, or is a rearrangement of previous usernames.ClumsyOwlet (talk) 02:38, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@HJ Mitchell: I don't know if all of those are ASPE. ファンウィジョは終わったな, 横山輝, マイペースなナマケモノ, 山田っち, 鶯乃理子, ぶるんぶるん, なもなも, 田中公侍|通りすがり69, 杉咲真尋, 大岡暁都, Issokiso, 長雄, 喵小爱, 嵯峨日暮, はにかむ幸三, にしざわけ, ジミー・北アイルランド, 小本祐紀, 臥龍點睛, and E5489 don't seem like ASPE's usernames (along with about 40 other accounts in the block log), and 青山貴弘, エオウプ, Сунгирь, 火乃狐 don't act like ASPE. Some in the log have also been blocked on itwiki. Can these be checked against ISECHIKA (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) and their sockpuppets? ClumsyOwlet (talk) 16:32, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- It's always possible you've got two sock farms on overlapping IPs, especially considering the proxy use. You can tell from the timings that the blocks were in clusters; each cluster roughly corresponds to one IP or range which in turn was detected by checking one of the accounts in the list above. For example, all the accounts blocked at 16:06 UTC would have been on one IP or range which they shared with ޕައެރޖަރއެސްވެސް, listed above.

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
- I've checked and blocked all non-stale accounts. I'm not bothering with tagging, I think it's a waste of time. I have to agree with the comments in the section above; I've just blocked >150 accounts but I'm not entirely convinced I've prevented any disruption (although I have detected several open proxies). Maybe just report the accounts that actually edit disruptively to AIV? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:26, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- @HJ Mitchell: I'm a bit puzzled by some of these blocks. A number of the accounts you blocked seem to have no relationship between each other, aside from having non-latin usernames and sharing (very wide!) ranges. Is there something I'm missing? --Blablubbs (talk) 16:45, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Blablubbs I swept some wide ranges for sleepers but the vast majority of the accounts shared a single IP address or much narrower range. You can see from the log in several cases I started with an individual IP and then widened to something like a /24 and then a /16 and in several cases the results were identical; in others, the wider check threw up a small number of accounts similar to the ones I was already looking at. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:55, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- @HJ Mitchell: I'm not saying all of them are FPs, but several of them, such as 火乃狐 have entirely distinct technical profiles and are clearly different people behaviourally. --Blablubbs (talk) 16:58, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- I'll go back through in a bit and double check some of the ones that weren't listed here before I started. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:04, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Blablubbs Most of these accounts just edit their own talk page over and over so instead of re-checking, I've been through and unblocked all accounts (four) that have constructive edits to mainspace/draftspace, including 火乃狐. If you spot any that I've missed, let me know or don't feel you need my permission if you want to unblock. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:39, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

- Some of these have dozens or even hundreds of global edits. All of them got locked, almost certainly based on the CU result here, which means they haven't just lost the ability to edit enwiki, a project that they may or may not have wanted to contribute to, but also lost the ability to contribute to any other project. --Blablubbs (talk) 10:03, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, that is correct. I will cite what I said on SRG:
OK, I took a quick look at the SPI page on enwiki and it looks like some of the accounts found in the CheckUser result have been questioned. I've unlocked all of these accordingly until this is cleared up. And yes, I locked based on checking CentralAuth for all of these accounts and the SPI page before I locked, to ensure I wasn't locking any innocent accounts. I think the CU has still been mistaken in their result though, and thus all of these have been unlocked now.
- Until this is cleared up I have therefore unlocked all of the questioned accounts above. And sorry if I caused some trouble. EPIC (talk) 16:31, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

You can see from the log in several cases I started with an individual IP and then widened to something like a /24 and then a /16 and in several cases the results were identical; in others, the wider check threw up a small number of accounts similar to the ones I was already looking at.

- @HJ Mitchell: I'm a bit puzzled by some of these blocks. A number of the accounts you blocked seem to have no relationship between each other, aside from having non-latin usernames and sharing (very wide!) ranges. Is there something I'm missing? --Blablubbs (talk) 16:45, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
- I have come here because I am investigating an unblock appeal for みたら on UTRS. The editor claims to be an innocent unrelated user caught by the block. So far they have edits on Japanese Wikipedia and on Wikidata, but not on English Wikipedia. The account was globally locked, but has now been unlocked, as explained above by EPIC. Unfortunately, checking numerous pages on Japanese Wikipedia via Google translate is far too troublesome for me to do anything remotely like enough checking to reach any conclusion, but I have seen nothing which looks to me as though it connects this account to any of the others that I have looked at. Also nobody on Japanese Wikipedia has, so far as I can see, raised any question of sockpuppetry. The evidence of abuse on en.wikipedia is nill, as the account has never edited. That leaves only the CU evidence, which must be regarded as inconclusive, as HJ Mitchell & Blablubbs read it differently. Under those circumstances I believe we have to assume good faith and unblock. The same may or may not apply to other accounts listed here, but I have not checked any others. JBW (talk) 19:38, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- @JBW if it helps, I am also rather unsure about lots of these blocks. I've not had a chance to review them in depth, but I trust Blablubbs to the point that if he says a CU block is 'unsafe' it probably is. firefly ( t · c ) 19:44, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
- I was pinged here, so I will also say that I support unblocking the accounts which are not likely to be related. EPIC (talk) 19:48, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
