Ran a check on Rajashreechavan first. Still looking. Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 13:13, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

  • Group 1   Confirmed:
  • Group 2   Confirmed:
  • Group 3   Confirmed:
  • There are a large number of accounts that all seem to be from a school all on one IP. The groups listed above are from distinct IPs that are on widely different ranges. Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 13:25, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
  •   Blocked but awaiting tags -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:26, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Thanks. I'm not going to tag these as it seems like this is a misguided school assignment rather than socking per se. See this ANI thread] and this one. Closing. Spicy (talk) 22:26, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets

Sockpuppeteer made this edit to the page JavaScript. Minutes later, Prachisathe01 made this edit to Python, followed by Ashish4215 making this edit to C (programming language).

They appear to be programming language sock accounts being used abusively. Similar editing behavior and time frame. NytharT.C 09:00, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

  •   Clerk assistance requested: - These are from the IP with the large number of accounts from Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Rajashreechavan. Please merge as appropriate, and would recommend normal vandal only blocks if appropriate. Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 11:46, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
  • These accounts haven't edited since they were reported on September 22nd. The consensus from previous ANI and SPI reports was that this is probably a poorly managed school project rather than socking. I'm guessing the project has ended by now, so I don't think a block at this point would prevent ongoing disruption. If these accounts continue to be disruptive I'd recommend reporting them to ANI. Closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 18:10, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
