Your cose on Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Lightbreather
Hello. Just a minor correction: Felsic was found to be not connected to Lightbreather, but Felsic2, the account that was reported, is a new account that has never been reported before, and thus never cleared of being a sock of Lightbreather (but shows all signs of possibly being one). - Tom | Thomas.W 12:29, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
- I'm aware of that.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:32, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
Evlekis SPI
Hello, @Bbb23: would you also mind checking Armotrias for connection to the Evlekis SPI case? It's a given, and they're already blocked, but I'd still like it confirmed. If you'd prefer, I can go ahead and create another SPI filing. -- Gestrid (talk) 14:24, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- @Gestrid: No need to check and please don't reopen the SPI. Also, you don't need to ping me on my own Talk page. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:28, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- Ok. In any case, I've already added
{{Sockpuppet|Evlekis|blocked}}(the suspected sockpuppet template) to the suspected sock's userpage to let others know. Also, I apologize for the ping. -- Gestrid (talk) 14:31, 15 August 2016 (UTC)- I've removed the tag. That's not something you should do. No need to apologize, just some friendly advice.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:40, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- Ok. In any case, I've already added
Our mutual friend, Sockie?
There are a couple of anono-edits ] on Trolleybus that appear to be one of the other participants. Based on his other edits, I expect this may be a another sign of competence questions, though. Anmccaff (talk) 18:21, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's probably my edits from the mobile. Did not registered my username on my mobile device. EDIT: very likely to be my IP from lookup and ISP. George Leung (talk) 18:32, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- And are you copping to ] as well, as you appear to be on the Trackless Trolley talk page? Anmccaff (talk) 18:42, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- I do not recall those edits, so I don't think that was me.George Leung (talk) 18:45, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- And are you copping to ] as well, as you appear to be on the Trackless Trolley talk page? Anmccaff (talk) 18:42, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- @Anmccaff: You're going to have to refresh my memory. Who's "our mutual friend" and what's the history vis-a-vis me?--Bbb23 (talk) 19:50, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- I think he's accusing me of socking on Trolleybus. The first one is definitely mine (mobile ip), but the Second one I have no recollection. We do nonetheless is having a slightly more heated talk on Trolleybus's talk page George Leung (talk) 20:00, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
*@Anmccaff: You're going to have to refresh my memory. Who's "our mutual friend" and what's the history vis-a-vis me?--Bbb23 (talk) 19:50, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- Oh, none with you particularly, except in the sense that Sockie has some shared features; you've seen one sockpuppet, you've seen 'em all. (Picture Buffy St. Marie singing The Universal Sockie. That, and a little Dickens.) The problem appears to have partially solved itself, anyway. Anmccaff (talk) 20:07, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

And again. Now even faked their own welcome: User talk:LoganBv Staszek Lem (talk) 19:09, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Tagged the page uner CSD G5. Also curious that they made a 1 byte edit 10 times to become autoconfirmed THEN created the article. RickinBaltimore (talk) 19:13, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- The account is blocked and the article is deleted. I also blocked a few other accounts that have been created recently. The irony is, until now, I knew zip about Messina. Someone probably tagged the article, and I verified and deleted it. Anyway, I now know a little more about Messina, although, frankly, I'm not quite sure I understand why there's no SPI for Messina but instead Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/James91 Brown. The global locks at that SPI all indicate Messina in parenthesis. I suspect Staszek Lem knows more of the back story?--Bbb23 (talk) 19:47, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- No; only hearsay, WP:DUCK and + +. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:11, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Joel.Miles925. Misplaced Pages is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Joel.Miles925 (talk) 23:51, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- @Joel.Miles925: Lovely. I have no clue what you're talking about. Maybe you meant to template the IP you reverted at Rudy Giuliani? BTW, regardless of whose Talk page you leave this kind of message on, it would be much more constructive if you linked to the edit you removed.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:34, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
I have to apologize. I did mean the ip, not you. I made that edit on mobile, so it's possible that was a simple finger slip. Sorry again. Cheers!!! Joel.Miles925 (talk) 12:29, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
User:Ambeinghari
He is undoubtedly a sock of User:Harirajmohanhrm, yet he futilely denies it. User:Inside the Valley commented on the SPI page, "Ambeinghari nominated 4 articles for GA within the last 4 days - Suriya, Salman Khan, Mammootty, & Baahubali: The Beginning. Mammootty & Baahubali are new noms, but Suriya(,) & Salman Khan(,) were last nominated by Harirajmohanhrm. Inside the Valley (talk) 08:08, 6 August 2016 (UTC)". There has been no further comment since. Could you please do something about this? Kailash29792 (talk) 04:32, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
- Sir, any comment? Kailash29792 (talk) 15:24, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
- No.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:26, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
Odd behaviour
Hi Bbb23, not entirely sure if there's anything you can do here as a CU, but can you at least confirm that Qazxw1235 is not a sock of Gadri? Qazxw1235's first edit to their user page was to tag themselves as a blocked sock (here) - I've asked them why, and it may just be a new user mucking around, but I'm not sure -- samtar 12:38, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
- Further comments suggesting they may be a sock? -- samtar 12:45, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
- Boy, it's easy to get a new username. Blocked as
Confirmed. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:52, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

A3 detag
I'd like to question your edit comment when you detagged List of B.Tech offering universities (Pakistan), "even when tagged, it wasn't eligible for A3". To my eye it fits the highlighted aspects of WP:A3 100%... "This applies to articles (other than disambiguation pages, redirects, or soft redirects to Wikimedia sister projects) consisting only of external links, category tags and "See also" sections, a rephrasing of the title, attempts to correspond with the person or group named by its title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, chat-like comments, template tags, and/or images." Where did I go wrong? Cabayi (talk) 06:49, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- When you tagged it, it wasn't a list of external links. It was a list of internal links, and it had introductory text before it. That's not empty. You should also wait at least 10 minutes before tagging new articles with A1 or A3.--Bbb23 (talk) 11:44, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- The version I was looking at when I hit the button for A3 was definitely a list of external links. Maybe there was an edit in between that Twinkle concealed but since the article's been deleted now, I'll just have to take your word for it. Point taken about the 10 mins. Thanks, Cabayi (talk) 12:57, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- You know what? I went back and took another look, and you're right about the external links. The author could've made them internal links, and my eyes just glazed over them. I'm not sure what I would have done because of the introductory text, but I would have at least waited. In any event, my apologies for the mischaracterization.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:02, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

Could you help me?
Is this an LTA? If so might I ask whom it is? Zero 15:27, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- You can ask NeilN, the blocking admin, what he thinks. Per policy, I cannot do so.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:30, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

Confirmation that Freddie Fox's birthdate is 5th April 1989
Added source for Freddie Fox birthday being 5th April 1989 and not as wrongly reported 4th May 1989. " 1. Both Freddie Fox & Lilly James have confirmed in interviews that they were born on the same day: - Freddie in - Lily in
2. Freddie's sister has referred to her brother's birthday in April "The best day of my life... was my brother’s birthday in April" - see also answer in -Editfff (talk) 16:11, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- I took the two sources you provided in the article and rearranged the article to show the birthdate. What you did was wrong formatting-wise. Also, we don't put DOB in Early life. So, it's now in the opening sentence of the lead in parens and there's a template in the infobox. I know you don't know all the rules, but thanks for your help.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:16, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
Your recent blockage
Hi, I saw that you blocked the anonymous user, I strongly suspect this IP to be contributing with this second IP address , since he used the same terms and edits on similar articles, from the same location, where he keeps making antisemitic, racist and francophobics comments and edits , , , and I could quote forever. I need to thanks you for your action, but I have to say that a blockage of 72 hours is not harsh enough for the kind of comments and actions on wiki. I really believe that for racist and heinous posts, the blockage should be much longer but I guess that there is a rule to follow. Anyway I wanted to thank you, you have been the first to take action.--Gabriel HM (talk) 19:07, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
- It's likely the same person, but that IP hasn't edited in a few days. If they resume their disruption, let me know.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:35, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
