This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reports@wikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergency@wikimedia.org.

Possible abuse by User:Elcobbola for blocking User:hetupeahelandia and claiming that it was a "sockpuppet" of User:Pricehissam[edit]

He blocked Hetupeahelandia (talk · contribs) for being "sockpuppet" of User:Pricehissam without proper evidence Melaza1978 (talk) 03:40, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. This is checkuser block, so the evidence is not public. Also I blocked Melaza indefinitely as obvious sockpuppet as well. Taivo (talk) 08:56, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Taivo: Thanks!   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:22, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For posterity, sockpuppetry by Hetupeahelandia is indeed Confirmed, and one does not even need CU tools to find evidence; for example:

Dear admins, please have a look at their edits. They are related to Swift Xi/Engineering, as well as their previous accounts in Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case/Masahiro007 and Special:Contributions/MasaMukai3. I have checked the edits in other wikis, they are related to Swift Xi/Engineering and the Matsushita family (w:simple:The Matsushita Institute of Government and Management, w:Draft:The Matsushita Institute of Government and Management) as well as the previous accounts. Please also see w:simple:Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Archive21#Accounts_related_to_T-ICU and w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Masahiro007/Archive. Thank you for your attention.

Fenraan[edit]

User: Fenraan (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Reason for reporting: All of his multiple contributions have been uploads of personal images used to vandalize enwiki, where he is now blocked as a VOA. Air on White (talk) 21:11, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment My previous post is not completely accurate: only his later uploaded images were used to vandalize enwiki, but he has still repeatedly reuploaded CSD'd images (or images similar to them) despite warnings. Air on White (talk) 21:13, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. User stopped after warnings. All contributions are deleted. Taivo (talk) 08:18, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
