Similar username to Al-mazzTapha, editing Draft:Lin Quinan which was created by blocked sock Cptnwkpd. This is an obvious sock, but I'm requesting CU to flush out any sleepers since we're up to 6 socks by now and AFAIK CU has not been run yet. Spicy (talk) 23:16, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Both of these users have been adding “martial artist” to different articles, [2] [3] a pattern shared by other confirmed socks of Almustyy. Additionally, Venwikibot has been editing Draft:Lin Quinan, which was created by a blocked sock of Almustyy, and they also have a similar username to
Venmatthew, another confirmed sock. And Venwikibot also tried to say on Danchenng’s user page that ”This is Danchengg.”

only edits in articles that Cruzdelaman has also edited. Cruzdelaman himself is also a sock but i forgot from which user. note that he has already been caught creating other accounts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Cruzdelaman#Do_you_have_any_more_accounts_out_there? im expecting an IP check will reveal a whole sock farm --FMSky (talk) 07:12, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

- If I may add to this, I believe that these users may be tied to Almustyy (which may or may not be who FMSky is referring to), and I created an SPI containing that information, and that information may be useful to your investigation here.

Powermodel was created by Delasarah, a blocked sock of Cruzdelaman. [6] However, based on behavioral patterns, I believe that Cruzdelaman is actually Almustyy. Almustyy has been known to edit Draft:Lin Quinan and add things like “martial artist” and other things to several BLPs, a pattern that every user on this list shares. [7] [8] [9] Additionally, Powermodel and Miguel coco have been harassing FMSky on their talk page, a user that Cruzdelaman has also interacted with.

This account attempted to disrupt the above report by editing the accused account name but was blocked by an abuse filter, so is likely the same person. See abuse filter logs. WaggersTALK 09:49, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
