Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

Master Sabuj.bd71 created August 2023, was mainly focused on Malaysian United People's Party but has now created Silver Synth. At the latter article, they've been repeatedly uploading copyrighted photos of the subject.

The first copyrighted upload was by new SPA Mediaman219, created 29 April apparently as an upload account for master, who posted at my user talk: "I didn't upload it to Wikimedia commons someone else uploaded it, and it's on wikipedia and they didn't say it was a copyright image.". Master then re-uploaded the same image and added that to Silver Synth, and argued with me about copyright at my user talk. They then tried again with subject's LinkedIn photo, again linking it at Silver Synth. All were tagged as "own work", and when I tried to use simple English at their user talk to explain COI, they replied "He is my nothing".

Next up is new SPA User:Editorbotwiki, created 10 May, a day after master was warned about edit warring at Malaysian United People's Party. Editorbotwiki closely shares their views on the subject, and has made quite similar edits to master there: [1], [2], with edit summaries oddly similar to this post by master at their user talk. After angrily denying UPE for Malaysian United People's Party at their user talk, and declaring that master's edit warring was correct at Talk:Malaysian United People's Party, then going quiet for a few days, today Editorbotwiki uploaded a posed photo of Silver Synth to Commons, again as "own work", and made their sixth edit on ENwiki by adding it to Silver Synth, "Copyright free photo added". Account is now blocked for misleading user name (not a bot). Master has resumed repeatedly uploading the same File:Silver Synth.jpg to Commons, despite a final warning there. The article reeks of UPE. Wikishovel (talk) 16:25, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SPA Wikieditormt, created today. Five minutes after creation, first edit was to remove a template from Silver Synth, after master did same [3]. Wikishovel (talk) 06:08, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
