Rationale, discussion and results

Reason: Raised by m:Requests for comment/Blatant sockpuppetry in good faith, it looks like there may also have sleepers IDK before?! Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 00:42, 24 February 2025 (UTC)

See Category:Sockpuppets of Anonymous Hong Kong Photographer 1. There are over 650 of these sockpuppets, without a main account that the user is associated. The name "Anonymous Hong Kong Photographer 1" is a term that describes this user by the community (this name was never created by this user). 〈興華街〉📅❓ 09:43, 24 February 2025 (UTC)

These are a real lot of accounts with a real lot of uploads each. What is the exact behaviour pattern? What is the proposed action against the confirmed socks? --Krd 12:14, 27 February 2025 (UTC)

What is the exact behaviour pattern?

1. Extremely serious socking without a main account, even though there are no warnings to the user (except FoP-related deletion requests).
2. Using strange names in accounts.
3. Serious FoP-violation in respective countries/regions.
4. Systematic, but inconsistent categorization.
5. Creation of categories with bilingual names.
6. User pages only created as galleries.
7. Never replied in talk pages.
8. Intentionally removing sockpuppetry tags.
9. Indirect disclosure of personal information.

What is the proposed action against the confirmed socks?

Getting the user globally locked. And if new socks appear, immediately lock it. 〈興華街〉📅❓ 15:33, 27 February 2025 (UTC)

There is no use by means of using the admins' noticeboard as this is now a difficult case. The best thing to do is to get the new accounts locked and contribs deleted just like what used to be done with MOHLEAOSONDWN 2300. If this was taken into account, he is deliberately evading blocks, and this is spamming. 〈興華街〉📅❓ 15:49, 27 February 2025 (UTC)
