All accounts appear to be here to advance Yazidis with POV edits and anti-Kurdish sentiments. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Doritoboritoa121&oldid=1287460420 Doritoboritoa121] and [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Radwan_1828&oldid=1288472870 MILAN2875285275] independently came up with similar prose and language and are obvious WP:DUCKs to each other. cyberdog958Talk 22:08, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

  • I'm fairly sure that the two reported socks are the same person, whether or not they are Ezidishingali. Doritoboritoa121 has a draft of MILAN2875285275's article "Battle of Radwan 1828" as their user page. (It seems to be slightly better than the version currently at AfD but still no good.) --DanielRigal (talk) 23:01, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
  • :@DanielRigal@Cyberdog958, I have reported MILAN as a sock of {{User|MHD1234567890}}. The CU evidence appears inconclusive, but behaviorally it's an exact match. I wonder if MHD is also connected to Ezidishingali. Aintabli (talk) 01:41, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
  • :I'm requesting CU on this basis. Dorito is most likely a sock. Don't know if this will turn out inconclusive, too. Aintabli (talk) 01:45, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
  • ::@PhilKnight, thank you for the CU results. It's quite surprising that the accounts are technically unrelated, although the behavioral connection between MHD, MILAN, and Dorito is striking. If there is no way that someone could bypass CU, this might be some sort of meatpuppetry. It would be a one in a million chance for two new accounts to pop up within 3 days, and edit and create articles from the same narrow topic area. The fact that Dorito [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Doritoboritoa121&oldid=1287035290 drafted] the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Radwan_1828&oldid=1287553607 same article] as MILAN created several days later citing the same exact sources is difficult to miss.

This case is being reviewed by {{u|DoubleGrazing}} as part of the clerk training process. Please allow them to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on their talk page or on this page if more appropriate.

  • {{Endorse}} - the master is long since stale, as are the socks in the archive, but I reckon it's worth checking if the new suspected socks are connected. DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:40, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
  • The 2 accounts are {{unrelated}}. PhilKnight (talk) 17:01, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

:*{{U|PhilKnight|Phil}}, could you maybe take a look at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/MHD1234567890? Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:18, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
