Hello, I just thought I'd let you know that a sockpuppet has returned, and is editing articles in Quranism, Alexander Skarsgård and Cynthia Rothrock again. I'm informing you on your page, as you previously dealt with this individual, and I didn't want to engage in an edit war. The sockpuppet that was editing in the Cynthia Rothrock article was EnigmaticStale, who was blocked. This new sockpuppet account is MonkeyKing73619 and the IP address 148.252.144.218, which was partially blocked before. Dsaun100 (talk) 12:49, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There were a bunch of socks and sleepers, all blocked now: RepoMan73619, TheRunningMan8261, MightyWaysss, MusicalGeniuses, MonkeyKing73619, Phantomia837 and ShaolinMasta.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:46, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

At the prospect of 3rr or Admin noticeboard report! It's not easy on a mobile. Thank you. Knitsey (talk) 20:33, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing like someone obviously in the wrong calling the other guy a dumbass. Looks like they talked themselves into an indef care of The Professor.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:47, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well I don't think people should talk like that, yes. Professor--well, seven more years, Ponyo, unless I win the lottery first. Drmies (talk) 20:50, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

People have been talking like that to me for days; the trolls have been nastier than usual. Water off a duck's back!-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:54, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lemme at 'em. Knitsey (talk) 20:55, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ponyo, I want Knitsey to be an admin, but I'm going to pronounce the "k" every time I see her name. Drmies (talk) 21:04, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well that's one way to get me off someone's talk page. Knitsey (talk) 21:07, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But we kneed you! Drmies (talk) 21:13, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kuck off. Am I blocked now? Knitsey (talk) 21:18, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that escalated quickly. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 22:32, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now I'm worried that Drmies is sat in a corner crying. I went too far didn't I. Knitsey (talk) 22:39, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, it's pretty much the same reply I give whenever anyone suggests I throw my hat in the ring for Arbcom.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:40, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You should do though. Knitsey (talk) 22:43, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kno way, kno how, Knitsey.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:45, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pfft. Touché Knitsey (talk) 22:50, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I always get terrified if I ever were to drop the F-bomb on Wikipedia. I keep thinking that the site is elementary school and the administrators are teachers, because back in my day, if you were to say the F-bomb, you would be considered a legend (but at the same time you might get sent to the principal's office).NoobThreePointOh (talk) 22:52, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I swore at my dog last week.

Then spent an hour telling her I was sorry and that she was a good girl, a very good girl. Knitsey (talk) 22:56, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ouch. Hope you reconciled with her. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 23:01, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

She has been giving me the side-eye since then. Knitsey (talk) 23:07, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ponyo, can you do me a favour, please? When I put correctly in The Smurfs Movie, the genre and the release date but someone put unsourced cite, and it's vandalism, can you correctly please? 173.177.20.244 (talk) 02:19, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I need you to do me a favour first: stop socking.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:28, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was doing the same but you got there first! Doug Weller talk 19:02, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm rarely first at anything these days, so I'll take it!-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:03, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for figuring out Ditestic. In the blocklog, you mentioned "User: User:TotalTruthTeller24"; is it actually "User:TotalTruthTeller24"? DMacks (talk) 17:40, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the double user was just a typo.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:43, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We're having trouble with our dryer this morning; is this where we come to get it fixed? Maybe we shouldn't be drying socks.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:09, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do throw the socks in the laundry. You know fewer will come out than what you put in!-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 18:30, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But they're throwaway socks. BTW, the problem we're having is the vent is, um, blocked.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:35, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I actually don't know if clothes shrink in the dryer or washer. On one hand, I assume it's the washer because everybody says it, but on the other, I think they shrink in the dryer because the lint usually gets caught in the lint trap. To this day, it's still a mystery in my mind. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 18:33, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are you serious? The dryer at my house doesn't even dry my clothes properly, even after putting it for a 70-minute timed dry, which means I have to do another cycle. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 18:23, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Even if it doesn't dry at all, your dryer could have other uses, such as music[10]. DMacks (talk) 18:49, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I mean, I would love to have a laundry machine that could play lots of tunes. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 18:55, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There was a Sesame Street segment about laundry, where the characters danced around a washing maching singing "Do the Wash". DMacks (talk) 22:35, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I sure hope the fun department hears about this some day. They’d have a blast. Absolutely hilarious. Hurricane Clyde 🌀^{my talk page!} 19:10, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for blocking, I'd suggest revdel for the edit summary at Gossip Girl per RD2. AusLondonder (talk) 23:18, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ooops, don't know how I missed that. Done now!-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 23:19, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that! AusLondonder (talk) 23:28, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I'm an user from it.wiki (and I don't speak English very well). Thank you for the protection of my user talk, he is a vandal on it.wiki, but when administrators block him, he comes here... Thank you, bye bye! :) Smatteo499 (talk) 15:24, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Please stop removing relevant information on the Sports section of Fayetteville, Arkansas' page. If you continue doing so, further action will be taken. Afcnwa (talk) 19:47, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You continue to edit war to restore unsourced content that has no demonstrated relevance to the article. You are the one running afoul of our policies and guidelines, so if any further action is taken I have no concerns that it will be against me.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:49, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ponyo, do you remember who RedParrot is? You CU-blocked them in July and they were locked in August for long-term abuse. Thanks. C F A 💬 14:39, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@CFA: see this SPI.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:42, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When is my SPI going to be closed? If you are not the person I should contact, then contact the person I should contact. HurricaneKirk2024 (talk) 04:04, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I left a talk page message on Bbb23 talk page. Got no response, and just found out, he’s on vacation till the 1st of November (so I likely won’t hear back from him anytime soon); have since pinged Ponyo over to that discussion. Hurricane Clyde 🌀^{my talk page!} 06:39, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's been closed now.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:46, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to take a look at User talk:Sdfghuij where you noted BLP violations and said they would be blocked if it continued. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:19, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Coincidentally I've been puttering around random pages in Category:All articles with unsourced statements lately. What a breath of fresh air to actually dig in and do some article improvement as opposed to sorting socks. Brings back a little bit of the shine that drew me here in the first place. -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:22, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Signed up to help out, but I won't be tagging my sourcing for points. Not really my thing.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:25, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just curious, why are we adding tags to Andrew5 socks when the SPI page says “a clerk or checkuser recommends that new socks in this case don’t receive tags per WP:DENY”? Because I’ve blanked out at least one such user page for that reason; and pinged the checkuser who tagged him to the talk page. Hurricane Clyde 🌀^{my talk page!} 19:03, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New account; User:YDMCFreshMeadows192. You might want to remove their TFD nomination. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 00:12, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And I would heavily recommend blocking them, since they keep reverting our edits on this page. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 00:45, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@WikiCleanerMan: A little context would be helpful. You didn't provide any links, evidence or anything tangible for me to go on.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:19, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since @WikiCleanerMan didn’t; I have done some digging and found that the TfD of note is Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2024 October 21#Template:Foreign relations of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. Hurricane Clyde 🌀^{my talk page!} 21:11, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Compare the user page of this account and some of their previous ones. Same set of links related to NYC topics like trains and so on. One of them being QueensStreet188. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:13, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware, and had already blocked the account when I posted. I was only noting for future reference.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:22, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. The Javed Akhtar part was from YouTube, an unreliable source.

But you also reverted these things which are credible, and not supposed to be reverted:

1. His Alma Mater, and Education: he has actually done M.A. from Mithibai.
2. Mohamad Rafi is a Legendary singer, you may find it as an Exaggeration, and not neutral, but the Whole Film Industry of India would Agree to it.
3. His relatives were added by me, namely His maternal uncle Hasrat Jaipuri, and his brother's Son Arman Malik. That also was reverted by you.

So kindly make revisions regarding these topics.

Thanks. જય જલારામ (talk) 07:34, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@જય જલારામ: Credible is not the bar for inclusion of content in a biography articles. The information must be relevant, supported by reliable sources and be worded neutrally. In addition, no content should be added to the infobox this is not specifically supported by reliably sourced article content (see the instructions at Template:Infobox person).-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 15:52, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I, too, remove mass-sent messages from my talk page. In all honestly, I'm curious to know if that invitation to "a research" ticked anyone off. I know it caused a lot of watchlist noise. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 01:23, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was actually a pretty in depth survey on adminship across wikis. The results should be interesting.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 15:34, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could this deletion be reverted, as it gives people crucial information about Vantg Media for research projects and YouTube content, please? ItsElectricz (talk) 22:50, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The place to add crucial info about your business is your company website and social media platforms, not Wikipedia. -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:51, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As seen on my friend's company Wikipedia, he also has crucial information like what mine had. Would this also be deleted too? Night (company) ItsElectricz (talk) 22:54, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That article was written by an editor who did not have a conflict of interest in doing so, based on reliable secondary sources, regarding a company that meets our notability requirements for inclusion. -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:57, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wait, so editors with conflict of interest cannot publish their own articles? If so, could I at least have a copy for a supporter of mine to publish? ItsElectricz (talk) 22:59, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Editors with a conflict of interest are strongly discouraged from writing about themselves. If you have someone write the article because you asked them to, that would also be a conflict of interest (and possibly a violation of WP:PAID depending on the circumstances). Your company in no way meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion (which I linked above). Additional information can be found at WP:NOTYOU.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 23:05, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I won't do that. Could I at least still have a copy of what I had written for a document? ItsElectricz (talk) 23:12, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can send you a copy if you activate your email in your preferences (check the "Allow other users to email me"). You can disable it again after I send it to you.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 23:15, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done! ItsElectricz (talk) 23:16, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sent. Please don't be tempted to just have someone post the material I sent you on your behalf - it's considered an abuse of multiple accounts.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 23:19, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Please disregard my IP address unban request. My ISP has coincidentally changed my IP address as a result of unannounced service maintenance. This IP address range is still blocked, but editing via accounts is allowed. I shall make another request should I get assigned to a fully-blocked IP address again. Thank you for picking up my unban request. Cheers. Kyleroo (talk) 18:03, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If that happens, you may want to note that both Ponyo and I think it would be appropriate to grant you IPBE. :) --Yamla (talk) 18:04, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Halloween, and thanks for giving me a much-needed vacation, really appreciated it, and did a lot in the meantime too! 2601:147:4B80:3810:6888:3F0B:FC5A:D798 (talk) 21:39, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, my little Ponyo. I don't know if this info is any use to anybody, but the IP on your page is obviously the same person as this one, which I just blocked for 6 months. Maybe you want to up that also to a year? I'm asking you to do it because proxies are among the many, many things I don't understand. Bishonen | tålk 22:30, 31 October 2024 (UTC).[reply]

Sure, I upped it to a year and made it a hard block. You know so much about so many other things that a weak spot for proxies is more than forgiven.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:45, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome, welcome, welcome Ponyo! I'm glad that you are joining the November 2024 drive! Please, have a cup of WikiTea, and go cite some articles.

I think I beat you to it by a couple of minutes. You did the decline, I did the tagging. Girth Summit _(blether) 17:32, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I saw that - I went to add the tag and *poof* it was already there. Teamwork makes the dream work.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:34, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ponyo! I'm Royiswar, (and my main account was Royiswariii) I need help for my main account to get a checkuser review due to a accusations of violation that i violated WP:NOSHARE. Could you review my main account to unblock my account? Thank you very much. Royiswar Talk! 00:21, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) I've blocked the new account as a sock. I really don't think they are helping themself.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:54, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For tagging me on that block. I looked at the comment they left, and I'm laughing so hard. Joyous! Noise! 23:55, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the maturity level was off the charts with that comment. Also, is looking like a deer...bad? -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 00:03, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You Can Protect Rolo Because this IP address persistently makes disruptive edits. Thanks! GPMC ^{ontribs • ready to talk?} 01:47, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's so much fun blocking editors who come to your Talk page. Now I see why they came to you: Special:contributions/2601:246:CA00:5590:0:0:0:0/64. Apparently, they appreciated the block! --Bbb23 (talk) 02:42, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbb23, @Joyous!, and @Ponyo: (talk page watcher) I don't get compared to deer. I just get roasted for my username. /LightHearted I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 03:23, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, @I dream of horses. Maybe you'll get compared to a random animal someday. Joyous! Noise! 05:20, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Joyous! Come to think of it, I was once told "You'd make a good deer. You're so quiet." once, but that was offline. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 05:21, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ponyo A theater takes its name from this book, in which Mina Vahid, the star of Iranian cinema, plays, I swear to God, open the link below! This can be a very important resource: https://abadis.ir/fatofa/%D9%85%DB%8C%D9%86%D8%A7-%D9%88%D8%AD%DB%8C%D8%AF/ If you don't know Farsi, I swear to God, translate it! Kamanipour (talk) 14:50, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ponyo Did you read Mina Vahid's Wikipedia article? Kamanipour (talk) 09:21, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No; doing so is irrelevant to the content concerns I raised on your talk page.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:57, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Be sure it is not irrelevant, at least morally honest with our conscience! Kamanipour (talk) 06:40, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ponyo You should return the content you deleted because I just found out today that Mina Vahid owes her current fame to this book. Kamanipour (talk) 08:15, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is becoming clear that you have some sort of conflict of interest with this book; your sole purpose in editing Wikipedia has been to try to spam a paragraph regarding this book, either by adding it directly or canvassing others to do it for you. I see that you're still canvassing, despite my warnings. You cannot canvas editors to edit WP:EC-protected articles on contentious topics on your behalf. I'd block you myself if I hadn't been trying to explain this to you for so long. You are here for self-serving purposes and violation our policies and guidelines in doing so.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:04, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was in the process of typing out a big ANI message about that multi-IP edit warrer when I saw you'd dealt with it already. Thank you! AntiDionysius (talk) 21:28, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem!-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:29, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please reinstate the draft of Leigh Silverton's Wikipedia page that many students have worked on. All it needed to be was submitted. I just added a couple categories and i can't re-create all the hard work that her many students did over the years. ShortCat112 (talk) ShortCat112 (talk) 22:02, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple accounts have been working in conjunction to post promotional material regarding Silverton. There were also links to private files that made it clear that this was being done with Silverton's knowledge, and possibly behest. This violates Wikipedia's policies regarding multiple accounts, self-promotion and conflict of interest guidelines.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:12, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just to keep you updated, I have socks you blocked from Shiva Negar reported on the Commons as well for copyvio and socking. I have also requested page protection since this user has socked and indicated the intent to engage in meatpuppetry. TornadoLGS (talk) 00:16, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm already watching the article, in case any more socks emerge, and had planned to add semi-protection if needed.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 00:18, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just looking for someone to revdel this edit. Hope you don't mind me asking you here!

Hey, hope you're keeping dry. NotSoTough was created on November 5 but didn't started editing until 10 days later. They have an unusual fascination with WP:SPI and blocked editors, making useless comments at SPIs started by others like here. See also their edit filter for recent attempts to edit Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Simbaz12. I posted a "warning" to their Talk page about that and previous.

Trolls Talk pages of blocked users and blocked socks like here and here. They started an AfD because the article was created by a sock (and that was their rationale): Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of genocides committed by the United States. Finally, they are interested in old battles, which articles are rife with socks. What do you think?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:01, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/BaharatlıCheetos2.0. I guess we don't tag these? -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 00:24, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, Izno, who blocked most of 'em, doesn't like tagging. However, they've told me on cases I'm interested in that I'm welcome to tag. I, who do like tagging, would like to tag this one, although you should do it if you prefer; if it's me, what's the right tag?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:27, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm. Confirmed to BaharatlıCheetos2.0 based on this check? Because I can confirm that DevletGiray and NotSoTough are the same. I tried to update the SPI by f'ed it up.

Jesus, and I'm not even a clerk (or an anything for that matter). I deleted your f-up and updated the SPI with your stuff. I've also tagged NST as confirmed.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:48, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!!! I'm very hungry, so in my haste I messed up then grabbed a snack instead of fixing my mistake. Appreciate the assist!-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 00:50, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly you have your priorities straight; as you know, I always put eating before everything.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:58, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This user you blocked edits with an alternate account. Across various movies pages-[12][13], [14][15], [16][17], [18][19][20], [21][22], [23][24], [25][26]. Overlaps on former's creations: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. There are more diffs, I'm not putting everything here. Thanks. 117.230.89.141 (talk) 16:35, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) :You have an editor, Gotitbro, who has been editing Wikipedia for nearly 10 years and who has racked up almost 100k edits who edits film articles and adds categories to such articles (in addition to many other types of edits). Given that the supposed alt account also edited film articles and has 8600+ edits, it's unsurprising that there is significant overlap between the accounts. Just from a glance at the contributions they're using different devices to edit and I don't see a behavioural overlap. Do you have any evidence other than article intersection? If so, please start an SPI. If you don't have an account you can use to post to WP:SPI, you can post your evidence to the talk page and ask for someone to create it for you (Wikipedia talk:Sockpuppet investigations).-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:53, 27 November 2024 (UTC) strke based on Ivanvector's note below-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:54, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) The IP already posted this at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Fostera12 and was reverted, FYI. FWIW I took a look at it yesterday and was going to decline (case is stale) but got distracted by something, then Bbb23 removed it so I didn't bother. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 16:51, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted the IP, which is part of Special:contributions/117.230.88.0/22, because I thought it was absolute nonsense - and still do. But I'll let it be if you (Ponyo or Ivanvector) think I should.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:56, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In this case, the evidence is far too thin to act on, so it I suppose any SPI would be closed without action anyway.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:42, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So much moral ambiguity and consideration for an incompetent editor. Meanwhile, you guys conducted check-user on Sunuraju, an autistic girl with 30,000 edits since 2010, without a shred of consideration or benefit of the doubt. No results, yet still checking. Great job! This one is clearly less cruel than that. Signing off. 117.230.95.86 (talk) 20:02, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have no clue what you're talking about, but if you're insinuating that I should use the CU tool based on scant evidence whenever anyone asks me to, which is what you did with your request, you picked the wrong Checkuser.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:37, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please will you look at the revision history with particular reference to the blocked account Stephen McKeever. Something smells of fish to me, but I would need special goggles to work out what 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:21, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I checkuser-blocked the Stephen McKeever account; per the privacy policy I can't make any comment as to whether the new edits at Hopla are related. -- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:26, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I know that you cannot, nor would I expect you to. It would be a liberty even to consider requesting one. Just wanted you to see what was happening. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:40, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed you removed a talk page message from my account because a now-blocked user told me to nominate an article for deletion. In the future, is it possible to leave a reply under the message instead of deleting it without including a reason in the edit summary? You did the right thing, to be clear. It was just a little confusing to piece what was happening together. Thanks. HyperAccelerated (talk) 22:48, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the confusion, I though you would have noticed the editor had been repeatedly blocked for socking. Hopefully the situation won't happen again.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:52, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They were blocked right as I was about to nominate the article for deletion. That's why I was confused. It's no big deal though; thanks for taking care of the sockpuppet! HyperAccelerated (talk) 22:57, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re that editor you just pageblocked, [27] might be related. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 16:33, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I just blocked the new account as an impersonation of Egghead06 and probable sock of Super Mario 1887. Could you check to make sure it's not a joe job? If it is indeed a sock, the master's block should be changed to sitewide.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:56, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fwiw, the new account was created 10 min [28] after the pageblock. Presumed master now indeffed by @Valereee. This could be the start of a beautiful SPI. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:02, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:06, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not a joe job.  Confirmed, unfortunately.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:11, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While we're at it, wanna check [29] as well? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:15, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't link IPs to accounts.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:47, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:49, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OH, what a beautiful SOCKING, oh, what a beautiful BLOCK... Sorry, but you stirred my inner poet. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:12, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It might be a good idea to revoke talk page access here, given that this user has been attacking you and casting aspersions since their block. Just a heads up. JeffSpaceman (talk) 23:34, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's ok, some frustration is understandable after being blocked and their complaints just further demonstrate why the block is needed as they openly state that they're adding WP:OR to articles and intend to continue once the block expires.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 18:05, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
