Code letter: G

Supporting evidence: Per Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:AlmeidaManga, I'm requesting a check user to determine who this editor is. They specifically created a sockpuppet account for the purpose of leaving messages on my talk page to attack and harass me. [1] They did not, however, identify what the name of their real account is, and I don't believe such blatant sock puppetry should go dealt with. -- Collectonian ( talk · contribs) 21:22, 9 July 2008 (UTC) reply

Additional information needed I listed your case, but it is likely a checkuser will decline the case if you have no idea who the sockmaster is. -- lucasbfr ^talk 21:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC) reply

That's what we're trying to do here- checkuser the sockpuppet to see who the master account is. Nwwaew ( Talk Page) ( Contribs) ( E-mail me) 00:36, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

FWIW, I know of a previous case where Dmcdevit ( talk · contribs) ran a checkuser on an account that had declared itself a sock, without any prior inkling who the sockmaster was. If necessary, I can provide the evidence. -- Jaysweet ( talk) 16:25, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

Note: - this case is somewhat "fishing-y" but given the evidence, this is a deliberate abuse of multiple accounts per WP:SOCK and no editor has carte blanche to simply create a sock account to have a go at someone, then disappear again. It's cowardly in the extreme and - yes - it's classic good-hand/bad-hand stuff. While there were only a handful of edits and it doesn't appear to have recurred (yet), I think it's sufficient enough to name the master account.

Confirmed that AlmeidaManga ( talk · contribs) is a bad-hand sock of HouseOfScandal ( talk · contribs). I thought hard about publishing the results of this check, esp. given that the good-hand account is ... well particularly good, but this edit did it for me. Cowardice and hypocrisy - it's just not on - Alison ^❤ 06:26, 11 July 2008 (UTC) reply
