Standing ovation from the cheap seats

Brav[oa] for this comment. I like using sports analogies myself, so I appreciate a well-placed one, and this is perfect! Definitely one for the SportsCentre Top Ten. —C.Fred (talk) 12:57, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sock

Hi Cabayi. This looks like a pretty open and shut case of socking, not worth SPI... Hsb66789 is a recently-created sock of SakshamDigra22. The nature of their edits and article/subject overlap is pretty obvious. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:18, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Drm310, even if it were a case I'd come across myself, and no matter how obvious, I'd file an SPI with evidence:
  1. to make it easier for editors who stumble across subsequent socks to see the connection, and assess their later socks in that light; and
  2. because SPI comes with all the tools & links for investigating, and
  3. the SPI tools ensure the appropriate blocking and tagging is done consistently, with nothing overlooked. Cabayi (talk) 06:16, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Most recent example is at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Melody Soldiers/Archive, just to reassure you I'm not asking you to do something I wouldn't do myself. Cabayi (talk) 06:25, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough - I've submitted a report at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SakshamDigra22. Thanks for the advice. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:23, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rename issue

You recently renamed my account, but I found out that there is an account named Arcen, which is quite similar to my username. Is it okay to keep this username, or should I request a more unique one? So that there are no misunderstandings or other circumstances against me and that user. The user seems to be still active but only on other Wikipedia language editions. Arcent (talk) 08:11, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The software didn't spot that conflict, just the long departed ARCENT (2 deleted edits in 2014). If you feel Arcen is a problem, feel free to suggest a new name. With 47,548,868 other users there are plenty of conflicts to avoid -- Cabayi (talk) 08:27, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Cabayi: Okay, if my former username (which is Anciez1) has no problems, and if there's no account similar to it, I just want to bring back my username. I think that's a better choice. But just to be sure, tell me if you have a suggestion for a very unique name, other than my former one. Arcent (talk) 08:54, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I can't choose for you. Take your time. You need to be comfortable with whatever you choose and happy to stay with it. It's not a frivolous decision. Cabayi (talk) 09:50, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Xaosflux: Arcxerit, please check if this username is very unique. if yes, this is the username I will use. Arcent (talk) 10:18, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
