Suspected sockpuppets

edit


Since User:Gallura declared she was leaving the project in January, several other new users have appeared, with an unmistakable pattern of editing, mainly on the subject of art and design. Most of the subsequent edits are not damaging to the project, but the same habit of adding unreferenced POV content persists. Gallura herself has reappeared only once since then, to make a COI edit - something she has previously been warned about. I have tried to give these "new" users guidance on not using multiple IDs, but new ones are popping up nearly every day. It seems obvious to me that this is a sockfarm created with the intention of avoiding notice. Deb (talk) 12:22, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims. In attempting to make good contributions to Wikipedia, I have been forced to use new accounts every time I create a page, because I am being bullied by an editor who is trying to stop me contributing. I do not know why and nor do I wish to. The pages I have recently contributed are: County Herb Committee, Franco Grignani, Galerie Zak and Grete Reiner. Why are these contributions to be stopped? Why do you allow this kind of bullying on Wikipedia? It is supposed to be a platform open to all. The only COI edit I have made is to clarify something written about myself - I deleted one word which was inaccurate. Goyach (talk) 12:44, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This "new" editor appeared and made substantial edits to the article, including the addition of external links, and also removed all tags. S/he is clearly connected in some way with the subject even if not a sock. Deb (talk) 12:22, 24 March 2023 (UTC) Deb (talk) 12:22, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
