Rationale, discussion and results

Reason: Transferred original Commons:AN/BP request to here.

The suspected master is known to run a sockpuppet network on both Chinese Wikipedia and English Wikipedia. This is also the master account listed on both wikis and has been indefinitely blocked at both places, while currently serving a 3-month block here on Commons. However, there are CheckUser and behavioral evidences in both wikis that show the link between this account and others.

Here, these suspected related users are constantly uploading or editing photos of Joseph Shen, even when the master is currently serving a block.

The pages these suspected related users have uploaded or edited (mostly uploads, i.e. new page creations) are:

• File:Joseph Shen.jpg
• File:Joseph Shen沈永刚.jpg
• File:沈永刚的照片.jpg
• File:沈永刚2014年的照片.jpg
• File:Joseph Shen沈永刚的照片.jpg

See also confirmed sockpuppets on the two wikis:

• zhwiki category
• enwiki category

I believe this network is also running sockpuppets here since the accounts are still editing in the same topic, even after the master is currently blocked. Thanks very much. -★- PlyrStar93. _{→Message me. 🖉←} 15:21, 10 September 2017 (UTC)

• The following are Confirmed to be related to each other:

  Leonardo Di Ser Piero Da Finci = VissarionovichMutk

  VissarionovichStalin = Tendent

The relation of those groupings to each other and to the others is Inconclusive to Likely as a technical matter, but given the behavioural evidence and actions from other projects,  It looks like a duck to me. Эlcobbola _talk 21:02, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
