Reason for reporting: Also user "Hhahoaldg2". REASON = These are sockpuppets of "Musée Annam" and categorise images in a very idiosyncratic and unorthodox manner, see redirecting "Category:People wearing conical straw hats in Vietnam" to "Category:Nón tơi". --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:30, 20 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I concur; both accounts seem to be his. It's quite clear from edits like this (using hyphens between words) and this (old-style swearing), not to mention the topic. Both reported to m:SRG. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 03:29, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
A puppet of C/Musee Annam/Đăng Đàn Cung. After insulting me [1] and was banned as an IP user, he now created a new account.
“Category:Fake flags of Donald Trung” created by this account is a desperate attempt to counter the Category:Fake SVGs by 南文會館. This puppet claimed Donald Trung was uploading fake flags, but Trung’s files were made based on sources. While Musee Annam’s only source is “trust me bro” (he added some links that claimed as source, but no one can check them (they just direct to Wikimedia-Wikipedia pages) — Daeva Trạc (talk) 03:49, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
✓ Done I have been through a lot of their edits (from all the three four accounts), and it is behaviourally "most likely", and a clear case of {{Duck}}. Blocked and tagged. ─ The Aafī (talk) 06:46, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Ggmarien is another sockpuppet; he's done the same exact bizarre editing error on all of his uploads that Hhahoaldg2 and like one or two other accounts did. They're spread out and he would abandon those other ones after uploading for some bizarre reason. NorthTension (talk) 11:02, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Oh mb I didn't see Trung's new post, is it fine if I collect his dropped sockpuppets here or should I make a separate post? I've never used this page before NorthTension (talk) 11:05, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Donald Trung, Daeva Trạc, and NorthTension: Instead of moving categories, just report them and nuke all edits. This is the best way to DENY them the right to edit here. Yann (talk) 11:35, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yann, I'm not a fan of nuking and "WP:DENY", especially since a lot of their uploads are rare images which are often valuable, their only disruption came from categorisations, their uploads often need to be independently fact checked and I was in the process of fact checking their claimed "Flag of Hoa people" to see if it was accurate, it's quite common for them to upload legitimate images that are then deleted but later turn out to be quite valuable. -- — Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 11:41, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
As you like, but this just encourage them to continue. Why don't you upload these files yourself? Yann (talk) 12:15, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yann, many of these files are extremely rare to find or are SVG creations of files found in books. I don't like to encourage them, but if they don't disrupt I typically ignore him. Anyhow, thanks for cleaning up. — Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:40, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I think you may have just deleted the only instances of them on the internet, unless you can recover them someone else is going to have to dig and re-do every single file he did and who knows how long that's going to take. NorthTension (talk) 15:31, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Obissua[edit]

User: Obissua (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Reason for reporting: Another sockpuppet of "Musée Annam", please compare their upload to the uploads of their latest sockpuppet. I do not advocate for the deletion of this upload as I'm still investigating if this flag is legitimate or not, but any admin taking care of this Musée Annam Sockpuppet should report him to the stewards as he's known to cause cross-wiki disturbances when he's been caught. Also, the name is a clear racist remark, tjeir user page reads obiss USA which is meant to be read as "Obese USA". This user is a Vietnamese nationalist who often insults other countries. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 07:01, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
