Commons:Requests for checkuser

Shortcut: COM:CHECK, COM:RFCU Does your request belong here? This is the place to request sockpuppet checks or other investigations requiring CheckUser privileges. Checkuser is a last resort for difficult cases. Use other methods first. You can try posting on the administrator's noticeboard for example. Please do not ask us to run checks without good reason: These indicators are used by CheckUsers to allow easier at-a-glance reading of their notes, actions and comments. Confirmed Additional information needed Likely Deferred to Possible Completed Unlikely  Info Unrelated  Doing... Inconclusive Stale Declined Checkuser is not for fishing. Checkuser is not magic pixie dust. The CheckUser Magic 8-Ball says  It looks like a duck to me Checkuser is not a crystal ball. Running a check will only be done to combat disruption on Commons, or as required to assist CheckUser investigations on other Wikimedia wikis. Valid reasons for running a check include vandalism where a block of the underlying IP or IP range is needed, disruptive sockpuppetry, vote-stacking, and similar disruption where the technical evidence from running a check would prevent or reduce further disruption to Wikimedia projects. Requests to run a check with ambiguous reasoning will result in delays - please provide a rationale at the time you make the request Show what the disruption to the project is, and why you believe the accounts are related. Requests to run a check on yourself will be declined The privacy policy does not allow us to make a check that has the effect of revealing IP addresses. Outcome Responses will be brief in order to comply with Wikimedia privacy policy. Due to technical limitations, results are not always clear. Check back regularly to see the outcome of your request. Closed requests are archived after seven days. Privacy violation? If you feel that a checkuser has led to a violation of the Wikimedia Foundation privacy policy regarding yourself, please refer the case to the Ombudsman commission.

If this page is displaying outdated contents even after you refresh the page in your browser, please purge this page cache the cache.

To request a check: Cases are created on subpages of Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case. Creating a request Insert the name of the suspected sockpuppeteer (the main account or puppetmaster, not the sockpuppet!) in the box below, leaving out the "User:" prefix. Do not remove the text in the box, add to the end only. Please explain/justify the request by saying what it is you suspect and why it is important that the check be carried out. Indicate the usernames you suspect, using {{checkuser}}. Please do not use this template in the section header, as that makes it difficult to read the account names. Include the diffs or links required to support the request and reason for it. There are people to assist you and help with maintenance of the page. Just ask for help on the admin noticeboard if you really are stuck, or take your best shot and note that you weren't completely sure of what to say. If a case subpage already exists, edit the existing page instead, either adding to the currently open section (if the case is not yet archived) or adding a new section to the top (if the case has been archived). When editing an existing case, be sure to list/transclude the subpage here. Example If you want to request a checkuser on User:John Doe, enter the text Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case/John Doe then click "Request a checkuser." You will be taken to a page where you can fill out the request. Please make your request there brief and concise. Then transclude your subpage on the top of the list at Commons:Requests for checkuser and remove {{Checkuser requests to be listed}} from the top of the case subpage.

[edit] Rationale

• Reason: Just another sock of Paulinho15. Like all the others, uploading images of en:George Eads from various sources and from his Flickrwashing account. An IP in the 187.22 range then adds this image to multiple wikis. BTW someone should check why the image uploaded by him was reviewed and confirmed by the Flickrreview bot, it was from a known Flickrwashing account. --Denniss (talk) 23:36, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
  • Added today's version of him. --Denniss (talk) 20:41, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
    • I just added another incarnation of him and the IP adding the image to the pt wiki. Would you please check this one as well? --Denniss (talk) 01:05, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
      • Done. --Martin H. (talk) 08:16, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

  • I just added another one. Acting the usual way with a new Flickrwashing account. --Denniss (talk) 00:34, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Suspected related users

• Ganeshbhakt (talk • contribs • Luxo's • VVV's • deleted contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)

[edit] Rationale

• Reason: User upload copyvio images in both account Jayanta Nath (talk) 06:51, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Results

• Not much that checkuser can do as one of the accounts is stale. That said, it is pretty obvious. I went ahead and blocked one of the accounts, I do not think the socking justifies all of the accounts being blocked at this point. Tiptoety ^talk 03:21, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Suspected related users

• Gangsta way (talk • contribs • Luxo's • VVV's • deleted contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)
• 85.73.109.225 (talk • contribs • WHOIS • tor • RBL • tools • luxo's • crossblock • block user • block log • checkuser)

[edit] Rationale

• Reason: The two suspected users' only contribution was a stricken-out delete vote [1] [2] on this DR started by Meliniki [3] (they apparently mean to vote delete, as shown by their comments, but seem to have copied the stricken {{delete}} template from my earlier comment on the DR). User:Gangsta way was created today [4], four minutes before voting on the DR. I think the sockpuppetry is quite obvious, but since Meliniki might be a puppet themselves, I'm requesting this check. –Tryphon^☂ 11:17, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

• Şahzadə (talk • contribs • Luxo's • VVV's • deleted contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)

[edit] Rationale

• Reason: The question arose in Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems#Possible massive sockpuppetry, a followup to Commons:Deletion requests/File:Red kurdistan 1923 1929.png.
  I just checked their SUL account status and their userpages, there are some strange coincidences:
  • User:Acategory and User:Azeri Warrior have identical userpages.
  • User:Sortilegus, User:Sultan11 and User:Şahzadə have nearly identical userpages: Babel shows identical levels for az, tr and en (only ru differs).
  • User:Acategory, User:Azeri Warrior and User:Şahzadə have all been created in early 2010.
  Maybe just coincidence ... axp_de^Hello! 19:00, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
• No problem. See: Meeting page: Azerbaijani Wikipedia. --Cekli829 (talk) 11:56, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
• Yes, all of these are the just coincidence. --Sultan11 (talk) 18:17, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Suspected related users

• STREZA (talk • contribs • Luxo's • VVV's • deleted contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser)

[edit] Rationale

• Reason: Shortly after Beleiutz was indefinitely blocked for continuing to upload copyright violations in spite of multiple warnings and a previous block, STREZA has taken over, uploading very similar copyright violations nicked from various Internet sources and adding them to articles on the Romanian Wikipedia, just like Beleiutz did. The files uploaded by STREZA include File:Rudy rosenfeld web.jpg, which was previously uploaded by Beleiutz. —LX (talk, contribs) 12:06, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Rationale

• Reason: These three users have been exclusively uploading screenshots of movies featuring Laraine Day, claiming that their copyright had not been renewed although they were (except for My Dear Secretary). They do not seem to understand that these images simply aren't free, and that it's not a question of changing the license [5] [6]. –Tryphon^☂ 17:35, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Rationale

• Reason:User:Green, White and Gold made his first edit in the project in hr.wikipedia 4 April 2011 by reverting User:ComtesseDeMingrelie's edit and keep doing it in all other projects including commons. I believe that he keep doing it with the sock puppet user:Tammygeo to avoid block for edit waring. It is possible that this user is also sock puppet of more experienced user - User:Izzedine or other. Geagea (talk) 02:33, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

•  Comment - I had an email request which seems to be related to this. I really don't have the time to investigate in an appropriate way however I would say the request here seems entirely valid and there appears to be puppetry involving a number of users. If a fellow CU has the time it should be dealt with soon hopefully and thanks --Herby ^{talk thyme} 14:36, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

• I din't think Green, White and Gold is directly related.

[edit] Rationale

Reason: The suspected main account was registered on 2010-11-30, but was largely inactive until April this year. All of the suspected related users were registered in April this year (8, 12, 14, 15 and 17, respectively). The accounts have been used to upload old or semi-old photos with bogus authorship claims as well as blatant copyright violations. On English Wikipedia, they edit the same articles on the same topics. The accounts have no user pages, few or no talk page edits, do not use edit summaries and generally seem to ignore community practices, rules and interaction. Hawarjowan made this edit to change the source of Drea63's upload File:Adila jaf.jpg.

The following table illustrates the overlap in English Wikipedia articles:
