Consider filing at WP:COINAbout the edit warring complaint about Angelique Rockas. Since you have been following the history, you might consider filing a report at WP:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard just to document the situation. In the past User:Bbb23 was active in blocking these socks, but he's not around much these days (unfortunately). Getting this posted at COIN or at the SPI is one way to be sure that admins don't forget about the issue. If you notice more cross-wiki problems, you could report them to User:Ajraddatz who is a global sysop and steward. Ajraddatz has indicated an interest by leaving a comment in the Amfithea SPI complaint. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 14:51, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

RockasHi Chalk - Berean Hunter suggested that I direct my question to you since you’ve been most active at Angelique Rockas. I’ve pretty much completed copyediting that BLP and participated in the AfD for the theatre. Hopefully my participation will eliminate COI concerns. I now have both articles on my watchlist. I don’t know the circumstances surrounding the IP/COI/sock/vandal edits and hope whatever that was about is behind us now. With that said, can we remove, archive or at least collapse the list of COI/sock blocks in the TP banner? I have not seen such a list on the TP of other BLPs before, although I am familiar with the COI template. Now that the COI issue has been put to rest, I don’t see a reason to keep the list in the TP banner. Thanks in advance. Atsme✍🏻📧 16:17, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

Piraeus vs. AthensHere's what I don't understand. I looked at the sockpuppet records for Vrahomarinane. That account hasn't been here since 2017, but dozens of accounts since then have been blocked as his socks. And it looks to me as if the socks all want to say Piraeus instead of Athens. For example a sock named Majarampi insisted repeatedly in July-August to say Piraeus instead of Athens for the Peace and Friendship Stadium [1]. Same with Bobi XBM at Eurobasket [2]. One named Λόρδος wanted to say Piraeus, Attica instead of Athens. Here's another, Roni England, making it say Piraeus.[3] But in the current article, after it became between you two instead of IPs fighting it out, you are the one that keeps making it into Piraeus or Attica and removing Athens, and it's Jjik43 that wants to say Athens everywhere. Looks like you got involved on Sept 12, starting with the Eurobasket article, making it say Piraeus. Does this mean you are a sock of Vrahomarinane - because that was the edit that all his socks made? And who is Jjik43 in this tangle? Please explain this for me. Or maybe get that global rollbacker, User:Ah3kal, to come and sort it out. If he needs any help from an enwiki administrator, I'll be glad to do whatever he needs. In the meantime I have protected the article from IPs, but you and Jjik43 can still edit it - and you were the ones who were most recently edit warring so that hasn't really solved the problem. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:23, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

Example 1: The Neo Phaliron Velodrome was located there where today stands Karaiskakis Stadium, at the Neo Faliro district (note that Neo Faliro redirects to Piraeus) of Piraeus. Replacing "Piraeus" with "Athens", as the IPs and Jjik43 repeatedly do, is unproductive and disturbing editing, it is trolling. For comparison, take a brief look at the German article for Peace and Friendship Stadium. The beforementioned SPA user Trefoil13 changes "in Piräus, Griechenland" (the original version was "in Piräus", from the time that the artcile was created (November 11th 2018) until an IP recently (June 29, 2019) changed it to the comic "in Piräus, Athen", and so the edit war started) to "in Piräus bei Athen", a useless addition reverted by a user of the German-language WP (who has nothing to do with Greece, or Greek sport rivalries), commenting "keine Verbesserung" (=no improvement). Example 2: In this case, Vrachmarinaner reacts to the "anti-Piraeus" stupid vandalism of the Panathinaikos supporters by adding "Pireaus" below "Athens" (namely located in Anhens, and/or Piraeus), because a couple of venues are actually located in Piraeus. Although "technically" this is not a false statement, it does not help much, it is rather confusing, because in this case the word "Athens" meaning is "Greater Athens urban are", "Capital urban area" etc. (there are a lot of terms in Greek used to describe this rather ambiguously defined area), or even "Attica" as a whole (Greeks, while away from the place they were born or live, and asked where they come from, usually reply by using the name of the capital town of this Province, not of their actual town or village, in order to give a rough indication of the special part of Greece they come from: so, "I am from Serres" may mean the town of Serres, but any other town or village of Serres (regional unit) too). This is unproductive and disturbing editing, as in the case shown above, so Jjik43 is right while reverting it this time (but cannot be an excuse for their abusive contributions). I hope that now you have got an idea of what is happening here. Maybe the protection level must be raised if Jjik43 or Trefoil13 continue their "anti-Piraeus" editing. Wouldn't editing permitted only to "extended confirmed" users prevent them from doing so? At the same time, if they continue along this line at a cross-wiki level, I my have to file @ Meta a request to have these accounts globally locked. Kind regards. ——Chalk19 (talk) 07:09, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
PS2 @MelanieN and Ah3kal: SPA Jjik43 is back with their disruptive editing [5]. ——Chalk19 (talk) 11:28, 17 September 2019 (UTC) Karaiskakis Stadium dispute warningHello. As I told the other editor of their talk page, if you and the other editor do not stop disruptively editing the article and edit warring either of you or both will be blocked. Take to the article's talk page to discuss this content issue citing reliable sources and come to consensus. If you're unable to do so then consider dispute resolution, but you must stop reverting and or editing to re-insert your preferred text. I am not commenting on the factual evidence of who is correct, I am simply warning you that continuing the way you both are will result in sanctions. N.J.A. | talk 13:19, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
September 2019You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Karaiskakis Stadium; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. KillerChihuahua 13:55, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Killer, you are right to have trouble believing it, because that is a checkuser report. That likely means that both accounts are hosted on the same computer. The "friend"'s account was created in 2014 and never used (at least not on enwiki) until 2019. The SPI folks here are treating it as a sleeper account. Of course they won't say so, but I suspect they found that a lot of the IP accounts were also him. Yes, Chalk, that's what I was talking about. As for his claim that it was a mistake and he will be back "when the block expires" - the joke is on him. The SPI interpretation is that Trefoil13 is the sockmaster (the primary account), because that account was created much earlier, and that Jjik43 is the sock. That means that Trefoil will get a limited block but Jjik43 will be blocked indefinitely. -- MelanieN (talk) 17:39, 18 September 2019 (UTC)

ArbCom 2020 Elections voter messageNew sock of User:Pacific497/Amfithea ?Hi, I stumbled across your efforts involving the sock Pacific497/Amfithea here, whom you have helped to be blocked. I just found something interesting in the history of Internationalist Theatre: the recent edits by Special:Contributions/Volut. What caught my attention was a string of 5 edits at (for me) a very early hour, and the citing of a primary source in an edit that did not seem encyclopedic. As I have no dog in this fight, I'm referring it to you and user:Berean Hunter (seems to have vanished) to do with as you will regarding Volut.--Quisqualis (talk) 02:23, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
