{{user|Mauricio80}} was indef blocked in August 2012 for an odd pattern of vandalism: creating new articles about fictional international sporting events. Two apparent socks surfaced, {{user|World210}} and {{user|Trate32}}, showing the same pattern.

Trate32 recreated World Games 2021 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=World+Games+2021×tamp=20121226193913&diff=prev], which had been originally been created by Mauricio80 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=World+Games+2021×tamp=20120821173706&diff=prev|diff]. Also note the similar user name pattern. Both Trate32 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=2013+Cafe+de+colombia+Cup×tamp=20121226191332&diff=prev] and World210 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=Cafe+de+colombia+Cup×tamp=20121227023354&diff=prev] created pages for the fictional "Café de Colombia Cup". The listed IPs each made multiple contributions to Cafe de colombia Cup.

Olympia2000 and Hongkong43 have both been creating articles about fictional international sporting events, mimicking actions of other Mauricio80 socks. Olympia2000 added fake information ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2013_East_Asian_Games&diff=prev&oldid=532592199 here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2013_South_Asian_Games&diff=prev&oldid=532593468 here]) and created the hoax articles AFC King Asian Cup, 2017 AFC King Asian Cup and 2015 AFC Asian cup National Anthems performances. Hongkong created the hoax articles 2013 Asian Pacific Football 7-a-side Championship, 2013 African and South American Championship, Futsal at the 2013 World Indoor Games, 2013 World Indoor Games, Futsal at the 2013 World Indoor Games, 2012 Peace Star Cup and 2012 Peace Star Cup qualification.

Unistre34 created the fake article 2014 EAFF U-20 East Asian Cup, acting in a manner similar to Mauricio and his previous sockpuppets. The two IPs have both contributed to said article, which leads me to believe that they are socks of Mauricio's as well. One will notice that this vandal has a history of editing this way and his edits frequently go unnoticed at first glance. While it is important to note that one of the articles created by the suspected sockpuppet, 2013 EAFF East Asian Cup is legitimate, this user's edits continue to be disruptive.

• Users look like a relay team: starting from Ruso (16-18 Feb), than Feroz (20 Feb), Sangson (21 Feb), Unted (22 feb), Fenia (25 feb, afternoon), Wegrun (25-26 Feb), Wales (26-27 Feb) and Zaire (28 Feb/1 Mar). After 1 or 2 days of edits they stop and the other continue.
• Edit times are at almost in the evening/night (20 to 1 am), or sometimes in the afternoon.
• The field is almost the same, related to friendlies of NFT (National Football Teams) without sources, suddenly rollbacked as hoaxes. Another is the creation of pages about football competitions, also future as 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification (by Ruso) or 2019 AFC Kingdom Nations Cup (by Ruso, no thraces on Google, so possibly another hoax). By now we have 2014 Nagoya Cup (deleted as hoax), 2014 Hana Bank Cup and 2016 AFC United of Asia Cup (both, as said, unsourced and with no refs on Google). Another field is about singers of anthems/hymns and Olympics.
• Their edits are difficult to unmask: most of them are minor edits well formatted (in a table about friendlies)... and the hoax cups have plausible names: Nagoya, Hana Bank, AFC United, AFC Kingdom.
• Also the names are similar: a nick and after a digit. 200, 2000, 21, 23, 45. Last two are related to Wales and Zaire.

I hope I did a correct investigation, to have discovered that a vandal is makin' fun of us from 2 weeks changing account about once per day, with no resounding vandalisms but spreading a series of semi-invisible vandalisms buried here and there. Some of the edits look like correct (or maybe they are), but it could be a strategy: this is not a "page blanker" or a vandal using the edit summary to say wft trololol!!1. And, anyway, some of their contribs haven't been verified, also because they are "old" and in pages with lots of (also anon) edits. Thanks for attention. Dэя-Бøяg 03:49, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Colombia_national_football_team&diff=prev&oldid=588240193 Colombia], of course). Note that the "23" often recurs in the nicks.

Checking "histories", mainly of South Korea and Colombia national football teams, I found more and more possible and older vandals related to this issue. Also some IPs. The list could be much larger and the damage much more extensive, with an amount of uncontrolled edits, submerged by several other edits. I don't know if is possible to change this page to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Golan23 but with Ruso45 the work become daily and lesser occasional.

All three edited 2015 AFC Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament, the two named socks both created it. Juanew30 also created 2015 King's Cup. User:Gils34, a tagged sock of Mauricio80, created, apart from similar nonsense like 2025 FIFA Confederations Cup (until now a redirect, I'll just delete it instead), the 2014 King's Cup article. Note also the similarity of the username to another blocked sock, User:Juanes200.

I also seriously wonder whether the Mauricio80 sockfarm and the equally large User:FallandSpringOlympics sockfarm aren't one and the same. They have created many similar hoax articles on (often Asian) football tournaments, e.g. the contribs of User:Rio2InParadise. I even blocked User:Italiano34 as a sock of FallandSpring, only to have him checkusered as a Mauricio sock. Can a checkuser see whether the two sock farms are somehow technically related? A checkuser would be good in any case here, as there have been many socks in the past so chances are that already a few are editing. Fram (talk) 08:39, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

All these users/IPs belong to one person who is a vandalizer, you can follow those IP edits to find the connection between them.

• FallandSpringOlympics created a hoax article listing Olympics occurring in odd-numbered years on his user page in September 2013; he was the only editor. He also uploaded File:2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.png, a hoax about a FIFA tournament in South Africa in 2016. Again, he was the only editor save some license tagging before it was tagged for CSD#G3. FallandSpringOlympics does have an extensive contribution history outside this article that obviously stopped after his indefinite block.
• Sanglan231 created the hoax article 2016 AFF U-23 Youth Championship on March 15. He has no other edits outside this article. The 181.x.x.x IP edited the article to add dates and a flagicon.
• Kangson2001 created the hoax article Football at the 2020 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament on March 18. He has no other edits outside this article. It was prodded, and the 181.x.x.x IP removed the PROD tag.
• The other IP did not edit the articles at all.

• Based on the behavioral evidence, I think it would be worthwhile to ask for CU to see if these are related and to check for sleepers. I'm not sure FallandSpringOlympics is the master, though. Katie^talk 20:28, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

Creating articles about future sporting events which consist entirely of lists of countries and their flags. Also, the username follows the pattern of some of the past socks (it ends with "231"). - MrX 20:19, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
