Known IP addresses of the suspected socked pupped zoo are in the ranges 77.211.64-255.* and 178.139.64-255.*.

Rationale

Reason: Me and several other dewiki users strongly suspect that Teufelskasper, Sir Sumsum and Dabelpapel are sock puppets of user:Cronista, see Category:Sockpuppets of Cronista. de:Benutzer:Jonas Dally has already been locked as Cronista SP because of bad behaviour. de:User:Minze Loot already was detected as Cronista SP through this CU and has been locked.

This SP zoo is known for coyright violation uploads. Of the users listed above,

• Minze Loot uploaded several copyvio files which have been deleted, see Special:Log/Minze_Loot;
• Sir Sumsum uploaded the copyvio File:Armec II.jpg, which has been deleted;
• Teufelskasper uploaded File:Worsley Hall .jpg, which is copyied from an undated source, so the estimated of 1700 may be wrong, it may be copyrighted.

All these accounts were created after the last de: Cronista CU and show typical Cronista behaviour: They all engaged (among other) in deletion discussions and in typical Cronista topics (Baleares, Engineering, Aviation, Motorsports). There are additional similarities in the style of writing, which I would not like to disclose here to avoid hints to the user how he can be detected. Teufelkasper [1] and Jonas Dally [2] also engaged in the typical Cronista 'hobby' of mobbing inclusionists exclusionists in/from deletion discussions, like several other sock pupptes which already were locked before (e.g. de:Benutzer:Snow path). --PM3 (talk) 15:57, 2 December 2014 (UTC) fixed several typos and an error--PM3 (talk) 17:06, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

de:Benutzer:Teufelkasper has just been locked as a Cronista sock puppet because of misbehaviour. --PM3 (talk) 16:25, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Results

• Cronista (talk • contribs • Luxo's • SUL • deleted contribs • logs • block user • block log • checkuser) is Stale. Any connection to them will need to be on behavioral evidence alone.

• The possible one's will need to be decided based on behavioral evidence, though most have never edited. Additionally, I have instituted a range block. Tiptoety ^talk 19:43, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

• In this dewiki CU, the accounts de:Benutzer:Cronista and de:Benutzer:Mode-Tante have been confirmed to be sock puppets. As Mode-Tante is included in the "confirmed" list above, I think we have hard evidence that all the confirmed accounts are connected to User:Cronista. --PM3 (talk) 21:55, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
