Sock or no sock?

Hi Bbb23. I'd like to draw your attention to this COIN discussion: WP:COIN#COI, may be removed? May someone remove it? One person has admitted to having two accounts: FabioMaggiAngelini and FabiusCesareAngelini.

The first account is active primarily on Italian Wikipedia. They have an admitted COI [1] (family member) with the subject they're editing about, the author it:Cesare Angelini.

The second account created a counterpart article here, Cesare Angelini (author). On their userpage, they disclose that they are the same person as the first account. That was confirmed by them when I questioned them at COIN. The first account made two edits to the English article, which the second account says was a mistake.

So - is one person allowed to use two accounts across two Wikipedias, if each is used exclusively for one language-version? I don't think I've come across this situation before.

There is also a third account (LitteralContributor) editing the article here, a WP:SPA who has remained silent. The person at COIN claims there is no connection... but they also claimed not to have a COI, and that wasn't true. I'm inclined to file at SPI and ask for a CU. What do you think? --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 18:18, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

All accounts are using identical edit summaries, as is the ip 2001:B07:AD4:666D:2E02:41D8:911E:2A8A Catfish Jim and the soapdish 18:41, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I decided to proceed with a report: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/FabioMaggiAngelini --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:50, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Drm310: My apologies for not responding to this before, but I noticed it, intended to look at it later, and then...forgot. Opening an SPI is probably best.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:52, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio revision delete

Hello Bbb23, could you please check this revision delete request? Regards! DreamRimmer (talk) 18:44, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure why you've come to me, but I suggest you ask an administrator who's more familiar with such tasks, although I believe the template may attract an admin. I always go to Diannaa myself, but I'm sure there are others.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:27, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@DreamRimmer: It's up to the admin doing the revision deletion to check your work and verify that the requested action is appropriate. I see a couple of problems. One is that the curent version of the article still has an enormous overlap with the source webpage, and did have a similar amount of overlap even before the addition of the content you removed. Is it a Wikpedia mirror? A second problem is that the content you removed does not seem to be present in the purported source. — Diannaa (talk) 21:02, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Seeming block evasion

This page is a favourite of a known and long term banned user. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Theories_about_Alexander_the_Great_in_the_Quran&action=history If you look at this edit by Gamma737 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1149112662&oldid=1147893182&title=Theories_about_Alexander_the_Great_in_the_Quran&diffmode=source you'll see that they effectively reinstate the edits you reverted here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1146405804&oldid=1146400010&title=Theories_about_Alexander_the_Great_in_the_Quran&diffmode=source Seems a sleeper account to me. ThanksNEDOCHAN (talk) 13:24, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's not enough for me to block. Please file a report at WP:SPI.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:29, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why did this end up here? Did I do something stupid? Valereee (talk) 14:48, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, I created the page years ago when I tagged it for sock puppetry. Silly automation.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:49, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ah! Valereee (talk) 14:50, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
hahahahaha...I'm thinking I should've unchecked some box...sorry, never actually CSD'd a user page before Valereee (talk) 15:00, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably wouldn't have this time if the user hadn't been kind of obstreperous. Valereee (talk) 15:01, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I noticed on his Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:03, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nabela Noor

@Bbb23:, Would you be able to draftify the page you deleted (Nabela Noor) into Draft:Nabela Noor so I can improve the page in draftspace with the sources? Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 20:23, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Will you agree not to move the draft to article space on your own but instead use WP:AFC?--Bbb23 (talk) 20:24, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Awaiting your response

I was awaiting your response and you reverted my inquiry? Before you say I was editing the archive, I would not have had to do so if I wasn't ignored – Batreeq (Talk) (Contribs) 03:43, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
