Rationale, discussion and results

Reason: The sockmaster has uploaded a good number of images, though some (such as File:Adrian Perez Ramirez.jpg, File:WhatsA Image 202f3-08-25 at 3.23.08 AM (2).jpg, File:Filmfinity.jpg, File:WhatsApp Imag 2023-08-25 at 3.16.53 AM.jpg, etc.) have been deleted for a number of reasons, including copyright and use of commons to advertise. The master was given a warning for uploading out-of scope files the morning (UTC) of 27 August, and was given another warning for advertising at 16:37 that same afternoon. After receiving these warnings, the sockpuppet account was created at 23:15 on 27 August and proceeded to re-upload photos that had previously been uploaded by the master and had been deleted for scope or copyright reasons (i.e. File:Adrian Perez Ramirez (2).jpg, File:Adrian Perez Ramirez (3).jpg, File:WhatsApp Imae 2023-08-25 at 3.23.08 AM.jpg). As such, I suspect that the two accounts are connected in some way.

If these accounts are run by the same individual, this would appear to be a case of evasion of scrutiny on one's own uploads after having received multiple warnings, which would amount to disruption of Commons via the abuse of multiple accounts. As such, I am requesting a checkuser examine these accounts to evaluate the extent of technical connection between them. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 03:25, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

These two are likely the same person. However this conclusion is subject to the same caveat as 서울출장 below -- they are two of at least a dozen accounts (including those listed under 서울출장 below) that are likely students at the same institution. While these two quack like the same duck, I doubt that all of them are the same person. I have blocked Gajifast.     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:35, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

Also noting Abayomi43, who was blocked by Mdaniels5757 and was confirmed to master at an EnWiki SPI. I'm indefing the master. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 03:47, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

And also Sulitake01, who in their first three uploads re-uploaded an image previously uploaded by master. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 03:54, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Noting that Mariaman81, who joined Commons this morning, is also uploading similar WhatsApp/garbled filenames and another photo of Adrian Perez Ramirez (File:Adrian Perez Ramirez (3).jpg). Belbury (talk) 10:56, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

I've also blocked Walikomu for doing the same sort of thing as described above.

@Jameslwoodward: Would it be possible for a rangeblock to work here, or would there be too much collateral?

For posterity sake, I'm going to also make note of Ticket:2023083110009876. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 14:26, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Another new sock account at Obaraka2, a few minutes ago. Belbury (talk) 15:16, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
