Checkuser request
@Billinghurst: Please look at this account User: Itcouldbepossible similar to this blocked account User:Pritam kumar roni das and doing same edits, Thanks 2409:4060:2D9C:CCD:0:0:58C8:FB13 (talk) 20:10, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
- Again that same guy from User talk of Ohnoitsjamie Special:Diff/1080622579 and General Notability Special:Diff/1080552987/1080599485. Firefly you might want to look at this. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 03:34, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- Ohnoitsjamie Firefly 3PPYB6 just wanted you all to look here. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 09:37, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Itcouldbepossible—I calculated a rangeblock using Fastily's browser tool. It looks like to stop all this block evasion we have to block at least the /44 range. At this point, I really am getting the suspicion that even Pritam kumar roni das and Shaiksuhana2 are the same person and that we need to merge two sets of SPIs. Just a consideration. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 13:10, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- Just realized that Billinghurst is not a CheckUser. Way to go, IP user. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 13:14, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- This is now on WP:SPI. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 14:16, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- 3PPYB6 Blog19 is pretending to be AAhap36. Blog19 is from Bengal and she is from Southern India. You can check their contribution too and even you can match both acc. 2409:4063:6E8E:8A92:BA66:FA55:7630:350D (talk) 16:06, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- AAhap36 filed SPI against blog19 [1] so he is trying to take revenge. 2409:4063:6E8E:8A92:BA66:FA55:7630:350D (talk) 16:10, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- @3PPYB6 Primefac FormalDude Blablubbs Just pinged so many because this is now getting serious. The IP has started requesting a global block to meta. Please see this, this (thought reverted by JavaHurricane), this and also this. Now Primefac or any other admin, I don't know, maybe someone who has spent considerable amount of time here, please help me out in this case. I don't have much contact with people on Meta - Wiki, but if this continues, then I think I would run into serious trouble. Is there really any way of intimating people there, that all this is being made by an LTA to harass me? Where should I write about all this on Meta Wiki? ItcouldbepossibleTalk 02:27, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Itcouldbepossible—Either A): we can request a block of 2409:4060:2080::/43 on Meta, which would catch the harassment but would also rope in a lot of innocent Indians. (A global block does not affect Meta-Wiki, so global blocks don't work.) Or B): Simply deny recognition. If you choose to take B, then note that you'll still be receiving some harassment, but it will stop once the troll figures out there is no food for you to feed it. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 15:32, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
- @3PPYB6 I think blocking off will be better. Then if the troll shifts to another range then we could deny recognition. For requesting a block globally, can you make that on behalf of me? And please let all the experienced checkusers determine the range to be blocked, though I regard you as experienced too, but just to avoid any collateral damage. They will be understanding it better. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 03:22, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Itcouldbepossible—I am literally about as experienced, maybe even less experienced than you are. I joined ~2-3 weeks before you, and have about 30% of your edit count. It might be that I appear more mature than I am, having ~7 months' experience and ~3,600 edits. As for the global block, I'll go to meta and do that now. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 12:58, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Itcouldbepossible—
Done, I've requested it on meta here. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 13:29, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- @3PPYB6 You editing style and your overall knowledge tells me how much experienced you are. For instance, I couldn't calculate the range to be blocked, but you did. Would you please tell me how? And thanks for requesting the global block on Meta. I will also be mentioning where all the IP made global lock requests for me. Thanks for your overall help. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 16:34, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Itcouldbepossible—I used Fastily's tool at https://ftools.toolforge.org/general/ip-range-calc.html. Also, you are more than welcome.
