<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>

Yucazai@pt.wiktionary

This is related to a CU request that I did last month. This vandal keeps coming back with many different user names. In the past few days I have already identified and blocked the following users:

Now these three new users listed above have come and done what may seem inocuous changes, but they have his "style", so I'm almost sure it's him. I need CU confirmation to block them as well.

Also, if you could check other recent new users, it would be great, because this vandal is known to keep dozens of sleeper accounts.

If you identify that any of these users come from open proxies, please give me the ranges, so that I can block them locally.

Thanks once again for your help.

This user has many different IPs. Nevertheless I can confirm that
  • Cabo Henrique
  • Yucazai
  • Marina do Carmo
  • Fernando Nonemberg
are the same person.

The other  Confirmed group is

  • Mariano de Matos
  • Cpls não seja bobão
  • Liberdade sim, anarquia não!
  • Kagon
These two groups as well as Menesez, Manuel dos Santos, Ricardo S., Daniel Azevedo, Sem geito mesmo and Jorge es un Coitado are Likely Likely to be related to each other. Ruslik 12:44, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much for that. Now I have a new batch to be checked:
The first one is most certainly him (on his first modification he insulted the admins), the second one is probably him, the other three may be innocent bystanders, but I don't want to take a chance, so I would like to ask you to check them all. Thanks.

Another one for you to check: Cavaquinho.
I "know" it's him, I just need CU confirmation to block him. Thanks.

Unrelated Unrelated from a technical point of view; each have different IP ranges. However, Murilocaixeta may be a possible sleeper account (that is just for information; it is not confirmed). PeterSymonds (talk) 21:48, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please check Cavacum. Thanks.

Oops!The user David Mathicheus was created 5 minutes after the original account to take "another" notice in your talk page.Thanks,--Mamonas Assasinas 23:34, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest you ask a ptwiki admin to deal with it. Personally, I find it interesting that your only edits anywhere are to ask for CUs on a project that "you" haven't edited on ;) fr33kman 23:38, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The following request is closed: done. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Translation: Hi, I'm T.A Shirakawa, a sysop from Chinese Wikipedia. I request to check these proxy IPs whether they are controlled by Πrate or not. These IPs vandalized specific articles in zhwiki recently, and I suspect it was the user whom attacking Wikipedia for getting revenge on somebody. Please help check him and these IPs, thank you.

    • EL9836
    • EL900
    • EL902
  • Possible Possible:
    • Margaridabraga
    • Alvaro Azevedo Moura

Alvaro Azevedo Moura looks fairly established on ptwiki. However, technical evidence suggests a rather bizarre overlap of IP ranges. At some points the two users share IPs only digits apart. Edits with a similar IP range to the vandal occur hours apart. I would urge you to reserve judgement here, but at the same time, it may be worth pursuing the evidence with this user directly.

Why is a checkuser needed if they're already blocked? -- Mentifisto 14:49, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If many users are related (Tio Chiquinho, Criador de artigos, Leandrinho777, Soli Deo Gloria do Yahoo ... ...) with these destructive editions (wich have to be locally supressed due the sexually explicit content), may be have more users waiting to continue this "saga" adding sexually explicit images in religious articles like this. Thank you. Leandro Martinez msg 15:14, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Done, vandalism check to prevent continued abuse.  Confirmed that both users are the same and, also of interest blocked accounts:
are him. Regards,

Unlikely Unlikely The data shows them to be unrelated except by some edits. fr33kman 22:47, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
These accounts were earlier checked on Commons. See commons:Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case/CriciumaSC. Jafeluv 23:07, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I saw that and wondered to even do it as it seemed DUCKish and confirmed, and then I thought, no I'll do it. But the technical data in ptwiki's data (UA's/XFF) etcetera doesn't support that they are related. Feel free to recheck it. :) fr33kman 00:45, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Naruto239377@zh.wikipedia

There's recently a hot debate regarding our sysop, user:Shizhao's adminship recall (c.f. Requests for comment/Oppression in zh wikipedia). According to our local recall policy, user must at least meet the auto-confirm level in order to start the recall procedure and vote. These accounts are recently making massive extremely meaningless edits like removing a punctuation then self-reverted which I suspect their purpose is to meet the voting threshold. Naruto239377 has started a new recall which is simply by copying the reasons of the failed recall of last week. Judging from the behaviors I also suspect that they're related to user:Luke7956 who was blocked indefinitely for creating massive disruptive sockpuppet. -- Sameboat (talk) 16:36, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
