- User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
- Editor interaction utility
- There appears to be a sockfarm going after Neelix (talk · contribs), possible purposes of trolling involved here.
- Compare very similar edits removing large chunks of material from exact same page by above accounts: Yaktaur, The The Fool on the Hill, IP address noted above, and also account Cactusjackbangbang.
- Cactusjackbangbang (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) account first edited 7 January 2015 -- yet somehow knows how to start AFDs on two (2) quality articles worked on by Neelix (talk · contribs), at at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/2012 tour of She Has a Name and Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Critical response to She Has a Name.
- According to Laser brain (talk · contribs) there are about 15-20 accounts involved in the sockfarm diff.
- Please investigate this harassment of a quality contributor and WP:FA writer Neelix (talk · contribs), thank you. — Cirt (talk) 01:29, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Update: Wow, there's possibly a lot more going on here, please see Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Johnnydowns/Archive. Bbb23 (talk · contribs) at that case page Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Johnnydowns/Archive had previously asked for diffs. I've not yet looked into that other case but I've given diffs above linking the users named above. Checkusers, please also have a look at the accounts named at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Johnnydowns/Archive in addition to above. They may possibly be all involved in an organized harassment campaign against Neelix (talk · contribs). Thank you. — Cirt (talk) 01:33, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Note: The article that all those above-named accounts were removing large chunks of material from -- was brought to WP:GA quality, by Neelix (talk · contribs). DIFF, DIFF, DIFF, DIFF. — Cirt (talk) 01:39, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Account Yaktaur (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) -- first edit 6 January 2015. Creates one-line-long-userpage which turns userpage from redlink to blue, DIFF. — Cirt (talk) 01:40, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Compare 204.187.101.226 (talk · tag · contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · proxy check · block user · spi block · block log · cross-wiki contribs · CheckUser (log)) with 69.158.90.116 (talk · tag · contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · proxy check · block user · spi block · block log · cross-wiki contribs · CheckUser (log)), which was listed at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Johnnydowns/Archive. Both geolocate to similar location, both have history of pursuing edits following quality contributions made by Neelix (talk · contribs). — Cirt (talk) 01:43, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Added one, Johnnydowns, to above list of suspected socks. Same exact article, same pattern of targeting article previously improved in quality to WP:GA by Neelix (talk · contribs), please see DIFF. — Cirt (talk) 02:00, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Johnnydowns, zero edits for three (3) years LINK. Returns on 2 January 2015 to an article being edited by Neelix (talk · contribs). Same day, creates his userpage with one-line-long-userpage, turning userpage link from red to blue, see DIFF. Compare with one-line-long-userpage creation by Yaktaur (talk · contribs), as noted, above. — Cirt (talk) 02:12, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

- This is a clear coordinated attack on Neelix for some reason, either a sock or meat farm. The accounts are focused around disrupting Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant, Tara Teng, She Has a Name, and related articles. These articles are not related at all other than Neelix being a primary editor. --Laser brain (talk) 15:37, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- It is very hard to believe that a new user would start editing by creating an AfD. Hawkeye7 (talk) 11:43, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
Clerk note: I don't have time at the moment to look at the evidence. I will note only in passing, in particular if a CU is done, that Cactusjackbangbang is not even close to being the oldest account. Johnnydowns is much older (2010 v. 2015), but the oldest listed account is The The Fool on the Hill (2007). I'm not going to do anything procedurally about that, though, until it's sorted out.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:19, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
- Checkusers will sometimes use the newest most-recently-active account as the sockmaster name, for that one might have the most recent Checkuser technical information. — Cirt (talk) 22:25, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
