  • G: Block Evasion

A red flag is raised when three accounts reinsert, as their first edits here, strongly contested, and poorly-sourced material, to articles previously frequented by DavidYork71. --Rodhullandemu 13:54, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • G: Block Evasion

This user has been making edits similar to that of the blocked sockpuppet who had recently been visting this particular article. When this user goes to argue his/her case on the talk page, instead of making a new thread, they instead defend the edits of the banned sockpuppets. There is little to show for contributions, all of them are to the same article.— dαlus Contribs 10:22, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Supporting evidence: Besides the obvious similarity in the usernames, these two users have been seen POV pushing on the article Troy Davis case. The suspected sockpuppeteer made all of two edits, but these two edits had an obvious POV, and a very similar style to that of the suspected sockpuppet. I should not have to bother posting diffs, as both users have made contributions to about only one article, the one and only article they are really concerned with.

To the timeline of events, the suspected sock master made two POV heavy edits to the aforementioned article, which were then reverted as against policy, and the article was cleaned up by other editors for a time, then, maybe a month or two later, the suspected sockpuppet creates an account and starts editing with a very similar style to the master account.— dαlus Contribs 08:27, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another curious crossover is Islam and children. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 15:42, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
HonourOfficerMcPhaill is quite clearly DavidYork71, given the disruptive edits to Muhammad and slavery (where DY sock activity has again increased recently), Islam and children, Dick Cheney and other article topics reminiscent of DY editing interests.

All accounts listed(those below McPhail) have contributions solely consisting of either reverting an article the version last edited by the above sock, or defending the sock's edits on the talk page of the article.— dαlus Contribs 10:08, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Per a thread on #User:HonourOfficerMcPhaill|ANI, that one seems to be quacking pretty loud. Could you please see if there are any socks in the drawer? Thanks! -- lucasbfr talk 15:37, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Supporting evidence: Extremely similar pattern of editing on Muhammad and slavery by the above accounts with how DavidYork71 edited on Islam and slavery. Including: large amounts of tendentious, original research inserted; a long string of edits usually without edit summary; (see Islam and slavery article history and AN/I reports re DavidYork71) hasty, often pointish GA nominations of articles where he has just finished editing.[3][4] Using irrelevant pictures often to inflame sentiments.[5][6] IP's already showed considerable familiarity with on-wiki colloquialisms and policies.

Fairly obvious DavidYork71 sock--similar editing patterns. However, this guy has been known to use sleepers and open proxies, so this should still be run to smoke them out. Blueboy96 03:58, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Already took care of this one. Blocked. I think we know DavidYork71's standard targets and patterns at this point. I have just been watching his favorite targets and blocking on sight. We have enough history to spot the obvious ones without checkuser by now. If he becomes harder to spot, we may need some checkusers, but as of now he's pretty easy to catch. --Jayron32.talk.contribs 04:07, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

These are running with similar MO to previous socks, including trying to change the definition of Rape to indicate it's a successful evolutionary strategy; they've both been running around inserting questionable crosslinks to pornography articles and various similar targets into marginally related articles. Abreactive was blocked by NawlinWiki (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log· investigate · cuwiki) yesterday after recreating a category originally started by a previous sock.

I was, at first, inclined to believe that this wasn't DavidYork71 and just someone obsessed with Mike Gravel and related articles...the edit pattern didn't seem to quite match DavidYork71's at the time. But now I'm beginning to see the trademarks of DavidYork71, especially the flooding of article histories that DavidYork71 does. But the part that really set my radar off was this edit to Islam in Canada. It'd be a little weird for someone to have an obsession with Mike Gravel and Islam and not be related to DavidYork71. Metros 13:18, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've also added User:NewHampshireVolunteer who did many of the same edits. Metros 13:26, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I now have my suspicions too. Also, his responses on talk pages are just DavidYork71. And the sex-related edits that some may consider a little perverted are pure DavidYork71. I'm not 100% convinced, but it wouldn't surprise me on bit. And, the editing times are similar to the user below (Llangowen) which is almost certainly DavidYork71 Merbabu 13:25, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmmm - well, given the link between NewHampshireVolunteer and Llangowen and the fact that from the contribs, the community would be easily convinced that Llangowen (and today's other identical edit socks) is in fact DY71, then it is no leap at all to deduce that NewHampshiVolunteer is DavidYork. "inconclusive" may not mean "confirmed", but on the other hand, it doesn't mean "no connection", particularly when the edit histories are taken into account. That's my deduction anyway. Many thanks.

The above username has shown an immediate interest in topics and editors whom other DavidYork socks were involved with.

I've added 2 users and 2 IPs to be checked based on similar edit patterns, particular at Mike Gravel-related articles. These have all cropped up in the last few days and were all blocked (the users indefinitely, the IPs for 31 hours). Metros232 17:45, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
While the behaviour on 16 May for the 203. one definitely fits, it's an odd one - it's a defence.gov.au IP and its general history prior to the present has been military-related edits. I'd be amazed if it matches up with any of the others on the checkuser, but it's worth putting it in to check anyway. Orderinchaos 18:16, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
DavidYork is definitely based out of Australia and it'd be really weird if there was suddenly some other Australian who found an interest in an obscure American politician who's polling at about .5% right now, so, there's almost no doubt it's him, but I'm wondering if he's operating any other accounts off that IP.

DavidYork71 had a strong infinity for articles related to Mike Gravel. These accounts have shared in this infinity. NI4D showed up 2 days after the last checkuser blocked a whole bunch of the sockpuppets. In addition to the edits to many Mike Gravel articles, NI4D also has found himself in trouble for edit warring over categories of racism. This may seem like a random and odd connection between them, but also note that none of these accounts seem to know what the preview function is and make dozens of edits to the same articles in a row just like DavidYork71. The second IP (...244.253) was used yesterday to evade the block placed on NI4D's account for 3RR violations. The first IP follows the same editing behaviors as the other accounts.

This user has been extremely disruptive on a range of fronts, mainly on articles related to race and/or Islam - he was first blocked on 22 March 2007 for 3RR violation on Islam and slavery, an article with which this user has been consistently and persistently associated. On 31 March, he was blocked for canvassing on user talk pages [39] [40] [41] for Islam and slavery. AN/I discussion This block was extended for almost certain sockpuppetry under an IP address. On 5 April, he was blocked again for continuing disruptive behaviour, including attempting to place an image on his talk page repeatedly (most recent instance). Some other diffs around 5 April can be found here at AN/I.

He also embarked on a campaign to get autosodomy (now a deleted article) recognised as yogic practice, and has been disruptive at WP:GA - several of the suspected socks, as a first or second edit, have passed or failed articles in WP:GAC, including Hezbollah [42], Exponentiation [43] etc, as well as restoring contentious sections to Islam and slavery (talk · history · watch · protection log), Islamic terrorism and Australia (talk · history · watch · protection log) etc. Orderinchaos 12:16, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

DavidYork71 has managed to upset just about everyone with his trolling (supporting Hitler, posting swastika images and graphs of IQ-by-race, etc.), has a history of block evasion and apparently vote stacking. I urge RfCU to take this request.Proabivouac 20:52, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
also see the edits of this user(some of the user name characters aren't showing up for me), -GA reviews upon account creation, insertion of inappropriate images, as per previous DY socks. ITAQALLAH 01:38, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Has no interest in showing any effort in abiding by wikipedia rules and standards regarding blocks and sockpuppetry - for example the level of editing in latest sock Blandneutrality SatuSuro 01:51, 9 April 2007 (UTC) An example being the first edit at - 13:24, 8 April 2007 (hist) (diff) User:Blandneutrality Created page with '== Fave Links == http://www.fam.org.my/ NEGERI SEMBILAN NAZA! while the last edit at - ĐộclậpTudoHạnhphúc - 10:29, 8 April 2007 (hist) (diff) Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Moon a mere three hour rest before the edits at the new puppet.SatuSuro 04:16, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  Additional information needed so why is a checkuser needed? --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 03:30, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
To prove all the above are the same user so we can get a community ban happening which actually works. Orderinchaos 03:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Code letter F is also applicable. All these socks were created when David was under a Block by User:Sarah[44]. --Aminz 04:05, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It is difficult to envision a block which qualifies as a "community-based block" more than this one; see [45],[46].Proabivouac 05:20, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Just a wording caution - we have a block with reasonably wide community support, not a community ban per WP:CN just yet. I understand one will be proposed as soon as one can be worded by the appropriate people, and with the support on talk pages and AN/I and the continued violations, is likely to generate consensus and simply result in community sanction being added to the existing block.

  Confirmed in part. The ones marked "*" above are directly related. The ones marked "†" are not obviously related; some aren't even on the same continent. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 15:27, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. This is interesting. If we consider the contribs, the 'users' marked as not obviously related actually have the least direct evidence. And the least number of posts. The one exception is User:Gerwani's edit linking sodomy and yoga - it's hard to imagine that not being DY. Possibly a copy cat? [47] And those marked as confirmed are the ones with far more convincing contribs evidence. regards Merbabu 15:53, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
