Here are some fine examples of this: https://besttvshows.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Diff/149575 (King of the wikis) [02:09:12] [discord] [02:09:13] [discord] https://besttvshows.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Diff/148634 (EricCartman) [02:09:14] [url] Difference between revisions of "Smiling Friends" - Best Shows & Episodes Wiki | besttvshows.miraheze.org [02:09:15] [discord] [02:09:15] [url] Difference between revisions of "Smiling Friends" - Best Shows & Episodes Wiki | besttvshows.miraheze.org [02:09:16] [discord] This may look a bit weak, but zeroing in on the revert from the new account above should be an indication that the account might not be a new user at all, but a returning editor. [12:14:19] .mhca Yamla from English Wikipedia [12:14:19] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Yamla_from_English_Wikipedia [12:14:29] Looks like impersonation here. [12:26:41] He's even a steward over there, iirc [12:27:53] ugochimobi Ummm, no he's not a Steward over there at all. [12:28:06] Yamla? [12:28:17] .wmca Yamla [12:28:17] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Yamla [12:31:19] or Global Renamer I think [12:31:34] He is a global renamer on Meta Wikimedia. [12:32:58] So of course, can we have a lock on the latest Yamla impersonator at least? [12:33:06] Reception123: ^ [12:34:14] of course [12:35:08] Will lock, as the name itself is just strange [12:42:56] Thanks. [19:41:57] [discord] @SelfCloak Please stop triggering the abuse filters.

The **REAL** reason why I blocked the account was that I suspected that he was a sock of S [19:47:29] [discord] [19:47:29] [url] Blocked as a sock: on User talk:King of the wikis | besttvshows.miraheze.org [19:47:31] [discord] https://besttvshows.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Smiling_Friends&diff=prev&oldid=148634 (EricCartman) [19:47:32] [discord] [19:47:32] [url] Difference between revisions of "Smiling Friends" - Best Shows & Episodes Wiki | besttvshows.miraheze.org [19:47:33] [discord] Notice how the new account reverted my edit back to EricCartman's edit. General rule of thumb: A brand new editor should **NOT** make suspicious reverts back to a blocked editor's edit. [19:49:53] [discord] I don't like this case because frankly, a dispute over an nsfw tag is a very lightweight thing to get hung up on and accuse multiple account abuse over [19:49:58] [discord] hi [19:50:14] [discord] I'd much rather they had an opportunity to oust with a smoking gun, such as the edit on GMW that resulted in the solidification of their lock [19:50:15] [discord] Hmmmm, but I have something else I'm about to post. [19:52:47] [discord] Oh yeah, I completely forgot something else as well. There's one page that all 3 of them in particular have edited. The new one's edits is so suspiciously similar to the master's: https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Osomatsu-kun:_Hachamecha_Gekij%C5%8D&diff=prev&oldid=314110 (King of the wikis) [19:52:48] [discord] [19:52:49] [url] Difference between revisions of "Osomatsu-kun: Hachamecha Gekijō" - Crappy Games Wiki | crappygames.miraheze.org [19:52:49] [discord] https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Osomatsu-kun:_Hachamecha_Gekij%C5%8D&diff=prev&oldid=309937 (Maxwellthesupreme) [19:52:50] [discord] [19:52:52] [discord] https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Osomatsu-kun:_Hachamecha_Gekij%C5%8D&diff=prev&oldid=307806 (Stanley694) Notice how all 3 edits are almost exactly the same as one another, as the new account inserted in nearly the same generic pointer in the redeeming qualities section.

[20:04:54] [discord] I agree that the account is significantly suspicious with incidental factors though, may end up taking a look and taking the liberty anyway [20:07:06] [discord] I figured if the first edit from the `besttvshowswiki` wasn't suspicious enough, then the `crappygameswiki` edit from the edit would change your mind instantly.

[20:09:45] [url] Blocked as a sock: on User talk:King of the wikis | besttvshows.miraheze.org [20:10:43] [discord] yeah ok, that last one is the smoking gun I was looking for, he's done either way [20:12:48] [discord] And I yanked away his talk page. And when I did that, I replied to him with this comment: "Talk page access yanked for death threats. You should be very lucky that you're being given some type of chance to clean up your act, my friend." [20:14:24] [discord] well if it's stanley he's not getting a chance, he's getting a generic request to appeal to stewards@ [20:15:08] [discord] That's what I meant by that. And judging by his demeanor, that would mean that my suspicions will be confirmed after the CU has concluded. [20:15:18] [discord] That's what I meant by that. And judging by his demeanor, that would mean that my suspicions will likely be confirmed after the CU has concluded. (edited) [20:31:44] [discord] It seems like King of the wikis was indeed a confirmed sock after all. Not surprising whatsoever. [20:32:27] [discord] he's getting a pretty solid profile and aside from an initial snag is uncreative in technical evidence [20:37:46] [discord] @raidarr Do you want to respond to King of the wikis' replies over on the user talk page? https://besttvshows.miraheze.org/wiki/Topic:Wwwvmhhu45ksszok [20:37:46] [url] Blocked as a sock: on User talk:King of the wikis | besttvshows.miraheze.org [20:37:53] [discord] Or are you good for now? [20:38:13] [discord] They got locked [20:38:15] [discord] so [20:38:22] [discord] no, if he wants a conversation he can have it by email to stewards@ [20:38:26] [discord] I was talking to raidarr. [20:38:33] [discord] That's fine. 🙂 [20:38:37] [discord] I know, but just saying [20:39:20] [discord] I did advise the user to take a break until further notice though (although I doubt they'll do so anyway, considering the user's constant ban evasion). [20:39:29] [discord] The maximum I would accept is a conditional unlock of the original account, if such a contact is made. While I would have initially been persuaded to offer that unlock free, it's clear to me there is nothing desirable to extend that olive branch for until he appeals. [20:39:59] [discord] I'm not getting over his implications of pedophilia, which sealed the lock on all known accounts into place for me. [20:40:51] [discord] Yeah, I'll keep an eye out if I see any more accounts behaving similarly to him or that new account that was CheckUser-confirmed to the master via technical (and rather behavioral) evidence. [20:44:38] [discord] very well; in any case I know there's a number of pending CUs from various parties that have been missed, so I can try to get to them sometime this week if they're a) compiled into a discord message linking to them or b) posted to the SN [20:45:09] [discord] Oh yeah, not to worry. I could possibly compile them all into one thread if I have to. [20:48:44] [discord] I'm hoping to make/see progress on cvt streamlining one way or another, and there are a few options that should hopefully pan out soon [20:49:18] [discord] I would hope so too. The way I saw right through King of the wikis' deception wasn't hard at all. [20:49:19] [discord] still a ways from it alas, probably late summer at the soonest before I personally can see anything finalized [20:51:20] [discord] Oh yeah, come to think of it, in a couple of weeks, it'll be one whole year since you joined Miraheze. [20:56:42] [discord] been quite a ride, ei [21:05:46] [discord] [[Special:CentralAuth/Keep305363]] Oh look, it looks like the "Keep laughing" LTA has seemingly returned, somewhat.
