For archived investigations, see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Makecat/Archive.

– A checkuser has declined a request for CheckUser, and the case is now awaiting a behavioural investigation.

Makecat has been blocked for sockpuppetry at zh.wikipedia: zh:WP:VPM#Makecat, zh:维基百科:用戶查核請求/2013/5#WP:LHLS (4) or Makecat, zh:User_talk:Bencmq#已确认, zh:Wikipedia:持续出没的破坏者/Makecat, m:Special:Log/Bencmq, zh:WP:互助客栈/其他/存档/2013年5月#Makecat. I've taken a look at all the centauth pages of all the socks I saw, and there were some enwiki VOA blocks (though I have no way of knowing whether those VOAs were Confirmed or not as I do not understand zhwiki's CU/SPI system or Chinese), so this may require investigating to protect the interests of the project. Several accounts were blocked on Meta (and a few other random Wikipedias) and/or globally locked. This will obviously require coordination with the zhwiki CUs.

Clerk endorsed - in the strictest sense of the word, as I do not know if there will be enough evidence to run a check, yet CU attention is required as zhwiki CU info is obviously necessary. Rs chen 7754 12:25, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Declined While the zhwiki CU activity warranted a cursory check, I see nothing untoward in Makecat's user contributions on enwiki that justifies looking in any deeper. — Coren ^(talk) 13:02, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- From what I could tell it was mostly goodhand/badhand socking, but I've asked Bencmq to comment. --Rs chen 7754 22:11, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - "Mostly goodhand/badhand socking" that is right, but not so much 'goodhand' part for the last few months. Checking the main account alone is unlikely to find anything since most of the socks come from proxies while the main account usually don't. --Ben.MQ (talk) 04:17, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
