Same idiosyncrasies and same interest around Indian news media. For example, compare Special:Diff/1069308399 with Special:Diff/1049495336 or Special:Diff/1069422692 with Special:Diff/1049512570.

  • CU won't allow me to connect this back to DavidWood11, but I suspect it is them from the editing pattern. They are  Confirmed them to Lelemer, so this is certainly block evasion. Blocking, closing. Girth Summit (blether) 11:41, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Ah, shoot - yes, I meant Lelemera. I made the same mistake in the tag too - will fix... Girth Summit (blether) 15:43, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Same edits at Arvind Kejriwal with the same edit summary. Same topic areas for editing. Both started editing because of The Kashmir Files kerfuffle. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:18, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well crap. Thanks for the hard work. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:16, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Lelemera is already blocked as a sock of DavidWood11, but by adding that account to the list, it gets added to Editor Interaction Utility.

Ddd421 is an account created to remove stuff unfavourable to the BJP (the political party of the Indian government). It does not behave like a new account. Its main actions, so far, have been to attempt to get two articles deleted:

The first AFD for Tek Fog: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tek Fog was started by Lelemera (confirmed sock of DavidWood11)

Anatoli eye is another new account, which appears to be linked to Ddd421 (though I do not know if they are a sock or a meat puppet). Their first edit was this one to support the AFD of Attack on Delhi Chief Minister's house Even though it is a "new" account, they can cite policies in their first post!

Both Ddd421 and Anatoli eye have collaborated on Draft:Gorakhnath temple attack - revision history -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:43, 13 April 2022 (UTC) -- Toddy1 (talk) 10:43, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • talk page behaviour similar to previous socks
  • same argument against The Wire as before, misinterpreting the same RSN discussion. Other socks have also extensively tried to litigate The Wire's reliability.
  • Similar fast-typing errors - compare this edit and the edit summary from Ghodbunder to older sock's edit and master's edit summary. Hemantha (talk) 13:36, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Compare this rant from Ipdesign1 to this old one from a sock. Hemantha (talk) 15:19, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • DavidWood11's sock Special:Contributions/Ghodbunder was blocked on 19 June by RoySmith.
  • Nalasopara was created on 19 June.

I can see some more behavior similarities, but I believe this should be enough for CU to establish sockpuppetry and look for other socks by the master. Venkat TL (talk) 10:06, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I do not know whether Maduadih is a sock of DavidWood11, but I think there is enough evidence to justify using checkuser. He/she has similar interests to socks of DavidWood11. There are differences between the kind of edits that DavidWood11's LodoVena sock did to NDTV,[4][5][6] than the kind listed below by a group of editors who all seem to have had exactly the same opinion.

  • Bijiigil (talk · contribs) is  Unlikely to Maduadih (talk · contribs) based on geolocation (They are editing from different countries). Behavior could be investigated further. Since Bijiigil has made only four edits we don't have much to go on. EdJohnston (talk) 14:22, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I wouldn't be surprised if this was a sock of someone but I don't think the technical or behavioural evidence is sufficient to connect them to DavidWood11. Closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 23:56, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Blablubbs I have not attacked Venkat TL. I have only shown one of his edit difference which is entirely opposing his argument on a poll that is now being reverted by himself. I have no relation with this DavidWood11. I endorse any investigation regarding this.Thanks.Kenstar1234 (talk) 04:25, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Pelab is  Confirmed to Jinnah47 (among others),  Blocked and tagged. Kenstar1234 is  Possible at best, but arguably less than that. I'd be interested in both behavioural and technical second opinions for that one. --Blablubbs (talk) 21:49, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree with Blabb's CU results, and don't see anything in the edit histories that makes me think sock. Closing with no further action. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:12, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
