Hi User:GB fan. Sorry, that's my bad (I think). I listed the user who created the articles (User:McSyl) when tagging them, who was indeed not blocked at the time. However, the master account User:BobVillars definitely, 100 percent was. See here. Should I resubmit the tagging using the "master" account instead? --McSly (talk) 16:52, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241015165200","author":"McSly","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-McSly-20241015165200-Revert_of_G5_Tagging","replies":["c-GB_fan-20241016102300-McSly-20241015165200"]}}-->

According to BobVillars block log, they were blocked for 2 weeks on 20 March 2024 and then indefinitely 2 October 2024. McSyl has a single block entry on 2 October 2024. All of the article were created in August 2024. After the 2 week block expired and prior to the indef block. ~ GB fan 10:23, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241016102300","author":"GB fan","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-GB_fan-20241016102300-McSly-20241015165200","replies":["c-McSly-20241020210800-GB_fan-20241016102300"]}}-->
Ok, fair enough. But this was just their sock-puppets for that period. Here are 2 more of their previous ones: YtoSu (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and RutoSu (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), both indefinitely blocked. I'm sure I can find more indeffed socks if I start digging. They are been at it since at least 2012. So anything we can do about this? --McSly (talk) 21:08, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241020210800","author":"McSly","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-McSly-20241020210800-GB_fan-20241016102300","replies":["c-GB_fan-20241021114600-McSly-20241020210800"]}}-->
If you think it is enough, retag the articles and present the actual master that was blocked when the articles were created. Another admin will look at it and determine if it meets the criteria. I am done. I looked at the blocked logs and the SPI and it G% does not appear to apply, but I won't take any more action in any way on these articles. ~ GB fan 11:46, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241021114600","author":"GB fan","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-GB_fan-20241021114600-McSly-20241020210800","replies":["c-McSly-20241021133000-GB_fan-20241021114600"]}}-->

Thank you for the re-directions. It is the best idea for records that are unremarkable. I'll continue with anyone else who has the same problem, if you don't mind 77.49.204.50 (talk) 17:48, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241021174800","author":"77.49.204.50","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-77.49.204.50-20241021174800-Marinnela","replies":[]}}-->
