User:Kurdiyate352 was blocked as a result of this ANI report on July 3. User:Cityaram365 began editing on July 7 and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kifri&diff=prev&oldid=966582511 immediately returned] to one of Kurdiyate352's disputes with User:Semsûrî at Kifri. Both Kurdiyate352 and Cityaram365 are preoccupied with populations in several Iraqi towns. In addition to the similar username formats, here are some specific edits connecting these two accounts:
- In a later edit at Kifri, Cityaram365 [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kifri&diff=prev&oldid=966585136 mentioned Semsûrî in an edit summary], despite never having interacted with them.
- At Tuz Khurmatu, Cityaram365 [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tuz_Khurmatu&diff=prev&oldid=966584055 continued a dispute over census figures]. This is the same issue that led to the ANI.
- Both users blue-linked their User, User Talk, and Sandbox pages shortly after account creation: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Kurdiyate352&oldid=960170669 User:Kurdiyate352]/[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Kurdiyate352&oldid=960170702 User talk:Kurdiyate352]/[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Kurdiyate352/sandbox&oldid=960170724 User:Kurdiyate352/sandbox] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Cityaram365&oldid=966582584 User:Cityaram365]/[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Cityaram365&oldid=966582567 User talk:Cityaram365]/[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Cityaram365/sandbox&oldid=966583091 User:Cityaram365/sandbox]. Note that 5/6 of the initial messages were some variation of "hi".
- Both users tend to leave edit summaries with short, declarative sentences: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tuz_Khurmatu&diff=prev&oldid=965657170 this], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tuz_Khurmatu&diff=prev&oldid=965672577 this], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tuz_Khurmatu&diff=prev&oldid=965687494 this] from Kurdiyate352, and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kifri&diff=prev&oldid=966582511 this], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mandali,_Iraq&diff=prev&oldid=966583540 this], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mandali,_Iraq&diff=prev&oldid=966583770 this] from Cityaram365.
Because Kurdiyate352's first edits were to their User, User Talk, and Sandbox pages, I suspect that account was also created to circumvent a block, so I'm requesting that a CheckUser look for previous accounts. Woodroar (talk) 00:18, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

That account is not me. I made some simple fixes to articles and these changes were completely valid and not reverted. If there are any edits you genuinely don't agree with you can undo them with justification. Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Cityaram365 (talk • contribs) 17:19, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

I suspect this is a sock of 3Oh Hexelon for two reasons. One is pattern since it's the same articles that are being disrupted. Secondly, its the same type of anti-Kurdish POV-push (which clearly comes to show here with the removal of 'Kurdish principality'[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mandali,_Iraq&diff=prev&oldid=1063519088]
I would argue that showing page history is better as evidence (than diffs) since it'll give the clerk a clearer sense of my suspicion. Here are the main articles that both 3Oh Hexelon and WakaWakaQdh have edited:
- [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jalawla&action=history Jalawla]
- [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mandali,_Iraq&action=history Mandali]

- I've been watching these articles since at least 2019, and when its disruption season, it tends to be the same type of behavior, i.e. attempting to minimize the historical/current Kurdish link to these settlements. Similarity in edits include:
- Questioning census numbers on the Kurdish population
- 3Oh Hexelon added this note in the Jalawla article back in 2020[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jalawla&type=revision&diff=985557341&oldid=985553443] and thier sock account removed info on the 1947 census[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tuz_Khurmatu&type=revision&diff=965658592&oldid=960629556]. WakaWakaQdh made this edit at Altun Kupri[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Altun_Kupri&type=revision&diff=1062356710&oldid=1062344834] recently.

- "Syntax"
- Same concerns for alphabetization and syntax clean up. '3Oh Hexelon' had many edits with 'syntax' in the edit summary including [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kirkuk&diff=prev&oldid=984727327] while WakaWakaQdh recently had this [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mandali,_Iraq&diff=prev&oldid=1063552929]
- Moving info about historic Kurdish population from introduction to history section

An empty claim with no real evidence to support it. You're the one with a pro-Kurdish POV push, and this is clear in your edits. I have merely reinstated sourced information about Iraqi, Arab and Turkmen settlements which you removed for blatantly obvious racial reasons to propagate a Kurdish agenda. I have no relation to the other user in question, and all my edits are carried out with dignity in an attempt to make the articles fair and based on unbiased sources, which is obviously the opposite of whatever you are doing.

:You should report me then. This is about an Sockpuppet investigation on you. --Semsûrî (talk) 17:46, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
::1) You are claiming I am the sockpuppet of another user and citing articles which I haven't even edited before (Kifri).
::2) Many of the towns' articles you cite don't even have a historical Kurdish link, yet you relentlessly keep trying to assert that they do, even claiming that Altun Kupri is '70% Kurdish' and a 'Kurdish settlement' (which is obviously not true, it has a Turkmen name, and its population is predominantly Turkmen and always has been in recorded history, and all the Wikimedia pictures depict its Turkmen traditions and monuments. Kurdish irredentist politicians such as Ihsan Mohammed aren't reliable sources.) Plenty of others have taken notice of your pro-Kurdish Wikipedia agenda, and other people have raised concerns about this - this doesn't equal sockpuppetry. Have you ever actually thought that your perspective is not entirely reliable?
::3) Historical information about the population of a town belongs in the history section. That's why it exists...
::4) Many of my edits you cited were genuine improvements and concerns by me. Any additions I make to articles are based on references and sources. Just because they have been voiced by other users doesn't mean you should try to ban them and accuse them of sockpuppetry with no evidence. Wikipedia is about cooperation, not intolerance and ignorance, and attacking anyone that doesn't support your view. WakaWakaQdh (talk) 19:58, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

- One must be wary in a case like this, because these are all logical things for someone with this POV to do. However, the shared tactic of moving things from the lede to the history section and the overlap on some very low-visibility articles like Kifri District, Sulaymaniyah Governorate, currently a two-sentence microstub, is sufficiently suspicious to justify a check. {{endorse}}. To the reviewing checkuser, I note that, per this block log entry, it looks like this Kurdiyate352 is actually SanFranBanned user {{noping|King kong92}} (SPI), but I see no discussion of that in the archive. That's something we can clear up once this filing is resolved (one way or another), but noting it now in case there's information about King kong92 worth comparing to in a check. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 22:51, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Same articles of interest. I believe strongly that this is a sockpuppet of Kurdiyate352 because of one very specific behaviour being the desire to move information about the historic Kurdish presence from the introduction of of an article to its history section. See [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sadiyah&diff=prev&oldid=1154974227] compared to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Kurdiyate352/Archive#03_January_2022 the fourth section under 3 January 2022].

Not true. I have only been aware of the article you are referring to (Sadiyah) today as it was subject to disruptive editing. There was a clause in the introduction which clearly referred to the political history of the city, and I believed that a statement concerning the history of the city would surely be more appropriate in the history section.

Apart from editing the same range of topics and even the same articles, they somehow manage to find a thread among countless others on Talk:Kirkuk posted by a blocked sock, House of tabooleh, and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Kirkuk&diff=prev&oldid=1188553727 agree] with them completely. They happen to be edit-warring on Sulaiman Bek, an article that was previously [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sulaiman_Bek&action=history&offset=&limit=500 subject to] edit-warring with regard to the same POV by various IPs and globally locked accounts. On [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Al-Bayati&action=history Al-Bayati], shortly after an IP [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Al-Bayati&diff=next&oldid=1187881109 restores] House of Tabooleh's [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Al-Bayati&diff=prev&oldid=1183471571 reverted insertions], Mteiritay [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Al-Bayati&diff=prev&oldid=1217588511 "expands"] article a few days later in the very same manner as the IP with OR or poor sources.

:Another "coincidence": Blocked sock {{noping|Ibnquhis}} [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Arab_tribes_in_Iraq&diff=prev&oldid=1169118523 "expands"] a template with the exact same edit summary which Mteiritay and previous socks and IPs have incessantly used. They have linked Al-Bayati there, a page that Mteiritay has recently edited as pointed out above, which includes the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Al-Bayati&diff=prev&oldid=1218488234 addition of the aforementioned template].

:I couldn't add all the socks to the interaction utility, but [https://sigma.toolforge.org/editorinteract.py?users=Kurdiyate352&users=Mteiritay&users=3BeanyJackStalk&users=3Oh%20Hexelon&users=68.AleemcaseyToby&users=Abodiyar&users=BayyebHoo&users=BurrritoTattoo&users=Cityaram365&users=Dwasirkaram&users=Fhajekfjfnahuskxmk&users=HakkinAldiAldi&users=Kerk%C3%BCkli this] might still give an idea. Mteiritay's very [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uday_Hussein&diff=prev&oldid=1188401885 first edit] to English Wikipedia was Uday Hussein, a popular article among the socks (aka sock magnet).
