<translate> This page is for requesting CheckUser information on a wiki with no local CheckUsers (see also [[<tvar name="SRP">Steward requests/Permissions</tvar>|requesting checkuser access]]). Make sure to follow the following instructions, or your request may not be processed in a timely manner.</translate>

<translate> Before making a request:</translate>

  1. <translate> Make sure you have a good reason for the check. It will only be accepted to counter vandalism or disruption to Wikimedia wikis. Valid reasons include needing a block of the underlying IP or IP range, disruptive sockpuppetry, vote-stacking, and similar disruption where the technical evidence from running a check would prevent or reduce further disruption.</translate>
  2. <translate> Be specific in your reasons. Ambiguous or insufficient reasons will cause delays. Explain the disruption and why you believe the accounts are related, ideally using [[<tvar name="diff">mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Diff</tvar>|diff links]] or other evidence.</translate>
  3. <translate> Make sure there are no local checkusers.</translate>
  4. <translate> Please ensure that the check hasn't already been done:</translate>

backbeom (contr · deleted · block · log · block log · CA · guc · checkuser · lwcheckuser)
Reason(s): These user show equal pattern and thought including cutting edit off reason. So to speak, I think user:100범 use many multiplex user to avoid wiki blocking. User:100범 and its multi user follow communism and anti-feminism. So they hate opponents such as me and Altostratus etc. for example they raise conflict 김구,김두한,여성부,조리퐁 etc. but they avoid discussion. 100범,Leno and its multiuser are notorious for same that.So please check these user. Thank you --여성부의 눈 01:24, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I will be looking into this more indepth later, but from what I have seen now, I can already conclude:
  1. 100범's edits are too long ago to check
  2. Leno has a large number of sockpuppets
  3. At least some of the abovementioned users are among Leno's sockpuppets.
More precise information about the mentioned and unmentioned sockpuppets follows when I have been able to check this from my home computer (I am now at my work). - Andre Engels 14:26, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, it seems we're talking mobile internet here, with all complications going with that. As said, 100범 cannot be checked any more but Leno has a wealth of sockpuppets. Which exactly are sockpuppets, and which are other users on the same network is hard to distinguish, but the most likely sockpuppets seem to be:

Less sure I am about the following names, but still I would classify them as 'likely' scokpuppets.

Of the other names you provided, checkuser gives no information about Antinobba. And for History no. 1 and Backbeom, the checkuser comes out negative - no reason from the CU result to believe that they are among this sockpuppet group. - Andre Engels 00:18, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK. So these are Leno. Thank you check their sockpuppets. But I want to catch connetion of 100범 and Leno. That connetion is important in ko.wiki. --여성부의 눈 00:24, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could you check ka:user:Revenge time the IP-address of this user and, I’d like to know if there is still any contributions of this user in Georgian Wikipedia.

  • reason: His 13th change is about abusing of one admin.He was registered 21 feb. 2010 and has been active till 22 feb. See his contributions and talk.

P.S. Pay attention for the name of this user. --Jaba1977 20:19, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. The user contributions are too old for checking ( Stale) thus this request can not be processed. -- Dferg ☎ talk 22:07, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ouzo@ka.wikipedia

Status:    In progress

Could you check ka:user:Ouzo the IP-address of this user and, I’d like to know if there is still any contributions of this user in Georgian Wikipedia.

MoreInfo Additional information needed I think that we need more info here. Which are the suspected sockpuppet accounts?, where is the ongoing abuse? In case that there's abuse: are other methods (like blocking) not working? Why technical evidence will help you in this case? In few words: Fishing CheckUser is not for fishing
-- Dferg ☎ talk 18:12, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This user, which basic account is Diaoha, has been registering himself with variety names and tries to scandalize Georgian Wikipedia. One of his accounts is mentioned above (Revenge time). Except this, he has several accounts (ka:user talk:Iaponeli – we are sure in this.), 13th december he registered new name, after he changed template autocratically in Georgian Wikipedia, which caused harsh discussion. Admins can not block him, because of his intrigues, he made friends with some of admins and they interrupt us during working in Wikipedia. If you can assure us that these accounts belong to one and same user, so admins could could have appropriate arguments to block him. Hope, you will get correct decision and let avoid Georgian Wikipedia scandals. --Petre17 20:29, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Confirmed, globally locked for crosswiki abuse. They are all interested in v:User:Newseerr/List_of_president_of_Maybeury_Elementary_School_and_soccer --Melos 09:56, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
These are elementary school kids, and I've been trying to work with them to contain the behavior, including the obvious socking. I am not clear on how many users are involved, and TCNSV has not raised issues at Wikiversity, this is thus an end run around local handling. Mabuabsdd was just blocked for two hours on Wikiversity by a custodian who had not been involved at all, and there was no pending process or request for custodian action there. Please unlock and allow local handling first, this is radically premature and could cause long-term damage. Wikiversity is not like the other WMF wikis. --Abd 14:43, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Notice that the page they are all interested in is a user page, it was moved there to allow these kids to learn to use wikitext and to practice creative writing. The access is normally through the school computers and so checkuser could show positive even if the users are independent. --Abd 14:46, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict with below) TCNSV is not a WV custodian, does not understand WV policy and traditions, and had not complained about Mabuabsdd behavior, nor did he notify anyone at WV of this action, so there was no opportunity to protest it. WV ordinarily welcomes users who may have been blocked elsewhere, and will work with them on how to behave. I saw no current cross-wiki abuse, though I didn't look at all the accounts. Other accounts than shown above, also from w:Maybeury Elementary School, almost certainly, were globally locked. Please unlock unless there is true cross-wiki abuse. If there is, then we can do the 'crat trick on WV. --Abd 15:37, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It would actually be helpful if a CU could run a whois to confirm that this is actually a school terminal. Thanks. --SB_Johnny talk 15:26, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Almost all IP edits to related pages are from the school district. There are rare IP edits from apparent home access. The edits come at certain times of day, when kids would be in school. I've been watching this closely and managing it, keeping pages created out of mainspace, interdicting most usage of full real names (this was easier when I was a custodian), and trying to develop rapport with the kids (or kid), which was happening. They are apparently very young, 7 years was mentioned once, and that they can edit at all shows high performance. Confirmation of school terminal could be useful, but, from I saw and what CU has already revealed, I'd be astonished if it wasn't. --Abd 15:48, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Are you sure you want to do this? This is a sock of a long-term vandal w:User:NewPak2 and the net result has normally been harm across multiple projects, not just Wikiversity. However much this person plans to help the Wikiversity project, it still remains that he's disrupting Wikisource, and to be honest I first spotted him there. So if you do plan to unlock him please contain his behavior only to your project and not let him loose on the other ones. This is not solely confined to a Wikiversity matter. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 16:29, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Based on past performance requests by the user (TeleComNasSprVen) should be treated with some caution. I seem to recall another similar request (& there is one above too). --Herby talk thyme 15:36, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The one above that reported by Bsadowski1 is also about HVAC spam. I have no idea what you are talking about, but we have been trying to combat the spam for days on end, and this is just one of several CU requests. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 16:29, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The report above isn't related to this one at all. I see now with the other users reported, a small level of problem on other wikis, not high enough to normally justify a global lock when lesser local measures will handle it. Please understand that a page written by a 7-year-old may look like "nonsense," but as a class paper it could be wonderful! WV isn't like the other wikis, it's about education, including "student work." Global lock was designed for massive cross-wiki spam, but it creeps into other uses. The age of user involved here is probably not appropriate for most WMF editing, but part of the WV mission was education of the very young, and I've been trying to make interaction possible, with some success (what these kids have mostly done on WV has been create personal pages in mainspace, that's slowed greatly, and they have made a couple of experimental page moves, of user pages. They are learning to use wikitext! If this had reached a point where it could not be easily handled, I'd have been asking for local custodial assistance. TCNSV brought this here with no local discussion, and cited, in his report, my expression of concern about socking, intended to encourage the user to be careful about creating socks, as if it showed a serious problem. The user wasn't warned, nobody at WV was warned, AFAIK.
If the decision here is to keep the global locks, please so state, so that I can ask for a local 'crat account renaming to allow at least one of these accounts to edit Wikiversity. --Abd 16:47, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
