85.226.44.57 began to be used for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bl%C3%A5t%C3%A5rn&diff=prev&oldid=408633720 first time] less than two hours after LouisPhilippeCharles's plea to unblock his sockpuppet, I'm From England, was refused by an admin on 18 January 2011 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:I%27m_From_England&diff=prev&oldid=408613986 here]. All 85.226.44.57 edits relate, like LouisPhilippeCharles's, to historical royalty, but the first few were on articles LouisPhilippeCharles had not previously edited -- thus allowing him to remain below our radar. But all of the most recent edits are to articles LPC had previously edited and are bios of the royalty of France or Lorraine -- the prevalent topics of LouisPhilippeCharles's edits before he was indefinitely blocked.

An admin has suggested that this pattern of sockpuppetry be documented so that more effective corrective action can be pursued, since the proliferation of sockpuppets by this vandal is accelerating. As shown in the previous sockpuppetry findings, indefinitely blocked User:LouisPhilippeCharles maintains that his editing despite being blocked is beneficial to Wikipedia, should not be blocked, and that he does not accept that he may not edit Wikipedia. Thus he continues to use sockpuppets to edit, creating new ones or changing IPs whenever one is blocked. His pattern consists of using socks or anonymous IPs that 1. were created since he was blocked Dec. 2010, 2. make minor edits on a variety of subjects to deflect detection, but 3. make substantive edits to bios on European royalty and related topics (such as where they lived or are buried) 4. particularly articles he has edited in the past as LouisPhilippeCharles or while using an earlier sockpuppet.

Diffs reflecting LouisPhilippeCharles' pattern & revealing these editors as his socks:

After this IP had been used for a miscellany of edits (including vandalism) to Wikipedia, and following a five month hiatus, the IP began to be [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Marie_Louise_of_Orl%C3%A9ans_(1662%E2%80%931689)&diff=prev&oldid=209793354 used on 2 May 2008] by now indefinitely blocked LouisPhilippeCharles, simultaneously with other socks, to make edits on bios of historical royalty and places associated with them.

User was originally indeffed on de.wikipedia.org as :de:User:Sümpf, then :de:User:LouisPhilippeCharles was indeffed as a sock of that user. Behavioural evidence also looks convincing to me, although I didn't look too closely. IP is obvious. Note that edits reach very far back. Could something like http://www.usaproxyserver.com/ be involved? Not sure whether to request CU or not. Might be worthwhile for getting further socks, but I don't know how much effort it is. Hans Adler 09:50, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

:That's odd, but I take it that this just means technically unrelated? For the record, the block at de was prompted by :de:Wikipedia:Vandalismusmeldung/Archiv/2010/11/23#Benutzer:LouisPhilippeCharles (erl.). Translation of the IP's report: "It appears to me that LouisPhilippeCharles is a sockpuppet of Sümpf, who has been indefinitely blocked for persistent undiscussed page moves after multiple warnings. The account is older, but the undiscussed page moves of the account LouisPhilippeCharles (who has also been warned already) only start after Sümpf's block. For a CU report Sümpf's last contributions should be too old, but the behavioural pattern is markedly similar, as is the topical focus on nobility of the early modern era."

:I see now that the IP is in the wrong time zone (in contrast to previous IPs). However, for the record I want to note that there are numerous commonalities, and in particular there is this: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maria_Luisa_of_Spain&offset=20101130&limit=5&action=history], on an article started by Tbharding. It might be worthwhile to monitor this IP. Hans Adler 13:38, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

::"Technically unrelated" is correct. It sounds like the block on de. was based on behavioral similarities rather than CU data. Does that sound right? TNXMan 14:53, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

:::Absolutely. It does not look as if a checkuser was ever involved, and basically the block was just an admin's reaction to a vandalism report by an IP. Hans Adler 15:16, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

::::Gotcha. I think we can leave Sumpf unblocked. The IP has only edited once recently, so your suggestion to monitor it for future activity would probably be best. TNXMan 15:21, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

• {{clerknote}} FactStraight, two of these accounts are not new. Iamthecheese44 is from August, and Enredados from October. We've run several checks since then and these didn't come up. You can't keep accusing every account of being LPC. Stubes99 edited at least one article he same as Iamthecheese - who's to say it's not them? We'll need better evidence before we take any real action here, I think. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 00:50, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Okay, but you know the problem here as well as I do: LouisPhilippeCharles has had a pattern for years of creating accounts that he uses once or twice, then returns to weeks or months later. Lately, he has been high-jacking accounts and using them. His purpose is to overwhelm Wikipedia: "Although I'm indefinitely blocked, since I will never stop editing under different guises, you may as well give up and let me edit as if I had never been blocked." So what I look for is his pattern: Is the account one that has just been created? Or, if not, are the only substantive edits to royalty or nobility? Is it an article LouisPhilippeCharles edited before? Do the edits focus on 1. title 2. name 3. childhood tales or 4. marital or betrothal tales. If the edits are matters of fact (such as dates, done to "prove" that his edits are constructive), has this account been used to make such edits before LouisPhilippeCharles was blocked in April 2010. In addition there are certain very specific edits that almost no one else makes but him; such as insertion of the rarely used but official names of basilicas where royalty is buried. On the other hand, his edits are usually trivial: he almost never edits substantive actions of royalty, such as their martial deeds, or their politics or role in history. So unless I see one of these markers, I don't recommend blocking: in fact, there are a number of accounts I suspect he's using, but don't reco for blocks because the pattern isn't clear enough yet. Certainly I may sometimes be wrong. But in the vast majority of cases where blocks have been imposed as socks of LPC's, you will find the pattern above. He will stop when convinced that his edits won't stick, not otherwise. FactStraight (talk) 01:24, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:LouisPhilippeCharles&diff=prev&oldid=493343676 Enredados] acknowledges that he is blocked but continues to edit Wikipedia under this and other socks. He refuses to abide by the terms necessary for his account to be unblocked, and defiantly and constantly edits Wikipedia under other accounts and anons. The other socks and anons exhibit the same pattern without admitting it: accounts created or revived since LouisPhilippeCharles was banned over a year ago, often within the last few days, editing mostly royalty and nobility bios, concentrating on titles, names, weddings and burials rather than their actions, minimal edit summaries or sources added. Edits to other articles are decoys to avoid detection. The vast majority of these I simply revert without seeking to block, but lately he has stepped up activity and begun edit warring again. These are a tiny fraction of his socks: he LIVES to edit royalty/nobility on Wikipedia. But occsionally he needs to know he remains blocked for a reason and that there are consequences to ignoring Wiki's rules: I repeatedly point out to him that if he would stop socking for 6 months he could be re-instated -- but his addiction is too strong.

• Enredados has provided a {{diff2|493343676|signed confession}}, and Earphone123 looks very WP:DUCKy. I'm less certain about Iamthecheese44 and Lynx-Q. As for the IPs, 81.158.117.206 is an obvious sock in one of LPC's favorite ranges. The others are all over the map, so I'm reserving judgement. I am also requesting CU in the vain hope of getting some clarity. Most LPC socks are of course stale, but the corpses of HammyDoo and Templatier are still comparatively warm. Favonian (talk) 09:47, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
• {{endorse}} - THe IPs are no use to us for technical ground as he has IPs in Spain, United States, France, Britannia, and if you look in the archive, Canada, and more. So its obvious he can get around. As you look at the contribs of these accounts, the only thing I have to endorse on is editing previous articles that previous socks had edited, playing around with specific details as mentioned by the report, and the same topic area. Edit timings are useless to us, because proxies are not involved here, but there are multiple different time zones. Also, I note that Enredados and Iamthecheese44 were previously declared {{unrelated}}, but there have been many many edits since that we can take a second look at. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 16:25, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

:: Geographically {{Unrelated}}: None of these accounts edit from the same country. However, all the named accounts (except Lynx-Q) appear to be editing a great deal without being logged-in (though I make no comment as to from which IP) so there may be some logged-out abuse that ought to be addressed with liberal DUCK blocks.

Given the {{StaleIP}} data for LouisPhilippeCharles, I am unable to make a determination as to whether any of these socks have the same owner. However, the geographical disparity certainly matches what we have previously found with LPC socks, so I encourage the use of behavioural evidence in order to make a determination. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I think that Enredados is probably LPC, from what I can see in my query results; but an actual technical link is {{inconclusive}}.

Earphone123 is {{confirmed}} to have the same operator as Templatier and HammyDoo (DUCK-blocked LPC socks). I found no sleepers and made no IP blocks. AGK [•] 13:11, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Yes, based on his now notoriously established pattern, this is indefinitely blocked LouisPhilippeCharles once again violating his ban in one of his thousands of ongoing efforts to magnify the status and elongate bios with royalty trivia, specifically, his favorite royals, the House of Bourbon. We know it's him because the anon is recently created, adds trivial facts about royalty (their titles, styles, family gossip, burial sites, etc -- never anything about their historically significant deeds), uploads lots of photos of old portraits on dubious legal grounds, rarely adds reliable sources, and seldom comments in the edit summary. Recently he's taken to correcting typos and minor errors, as in this French succession article, in hopes that when he's reverted as a blocked vandal (usually by me) another editor will restore his edits, thus allowing him to continue editing Wikipedia despite the now year and a half long block. Although he periodically pleads, under socks, to be re-instated, he ignores admins' advice to seek reinstatement by desisting from editing under socks for 6 months, because he has no intention (and, I think, no power of self-restraint) to abstain from editing royalty on Wikipedia for more than 24 hours. See here, where he admits using socks and says that less than half of those sock edits have been reverted yet! He's one of LouisPhilippeCharle's proliferating ducklings. Please block & revert.

Hundreds of edits have been made by socks and anons to an obscure group of articles since January 2012, all aiming at changing the way that English refers to the Palatine lands of electors and to the titles of the various Counts and Princesses Palatine and prince electors. Made by User:-Ilhador- -- and anons. It is obvious that this is a sock, and we know whose sock because similar, extremely obscure edits were also made recently by User:HammyDoo; like [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Elizabeth_Charlotte,_Princess_Palatine&diff=prev&oldid=488337040 this one] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maria_of_the_Palatinate-Simmern&diff=prev&oldid=488337544 this one] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henry_Frederick,_Hereditary_Prince_of_the_Palatinate&diff=prev&oldid=488363700 this one]. HammyDoo [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:HammyDoo&diff=next&oldid=494961413 admitted on his talk page], before being blocked for sockpuppetry and vandalism, that he wants his old account as LouisPhilippeCharles un-blocked because half of his edits have been reverted. Since January 2012 -Ilhador-'s agenda has been to substitute the use of Electoral for the adjective Palatine and promote use of Palatine only in the noun-form of Palatinate -- unlike standard English (which prefers, e.g., Elector Palatine). Also, a blocked sock of LouisPhilippeCharles showing the same pre-occupation with the same Palatine family of royals was Moonpig12345, who got reverted for it [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Countess_Palatine_Elisabeth_Auguste_Sofie_of_Neuburg&diff=next&oldid=450367235 here].
