 |reason          = There was an initial claim originating from an anonymous IP, suggesting that due to previous edits made by other IPs involved in Rastinition-related pages, Rastinition was accused of using logged-out edits and sockpuppet IPs.
During the accusation period, a new account, "Rastinitionn," mimicking Rastinition's naming style, was registered and became active.
Opinions varied: some believed the case warranted a check, others thought more evidence was needed, while users "Rky03" and "段奇遂" argued that regardless of sockpuppet usage, Rastinition should be blocked.
Setting aside potential IP or sockpuppet interference, I am submitting this report early due to the impersonation by "Rastinitionn." I hope at least the impersonation issue can be investigated to determine if it is connected to me or any sockpuppets. If deemed appropriate, a check on logged-out edits can be conducted as well.

Both users were quite active on nlwp at the time, but their edit patterns, the way they were present in off-wiki spaces (IRC chat), and the final reason for their local blocks were very different. Of course, if the CU at the time was clear I'll leave it there, but the other connections that were found per the duck test in 2023 (links in the top of this request) to the [[:commons:Category:Sockpuppets of Eissink|other 16 accounts now connected on Commons]] might also be incorrect.

:Unfortunately this request cannot be processed, mainly for two reasons. First one being that Commons has local checkusers, the second being that both users were locked long ago and thus the data from them is long expired. With that being said, looking at the past data from CU wiki I can't find an obvious technical connection between them, and they were both locked for different reasons each (Eissink was locked as globally banned while Wwikix was locked for cross-wiki abuse), so I can't see any obvious reasons that they are the same person. <b>[[User:EPIC|<span style="color:blue">EPIC</span>]] ([[User talk:EPIC|<span style="color:green">talk</span>]])</b> 15:51, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
::Hi @[[User:EPIC|EPIC]], thanks for looking into this.
::So the old CU data does not confirm a connection between Eissink and Wwikix? My suspicion is that the additional accounts belong to Wwikix, and Eissink just got caught in the cross fire. As you can see, Eissink is not appealing the block but only the connection to the sockpuppets in the category, and the category on Commons is created in May 2023 because ''"the Stewards say this is the case"''. Commons CU's therefore might not be able to help here. [[User:Ciell|Ciell]] ([[User talk:Ciell|talk]]) 16:03, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
:::Here's what I think might have happened:
:::* In May 2023 an admin on Commons advises to [[:c:Commons:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Archive_92#Possibly_multiple_accounts_of_a_person?|get a CU]] about a group of sockpuppets, suggesting they may be connected to Eissink;
:::* Another user [[Steward_requests/Global/2023-w16#Global_lock_for_foundation_global_ban_evasion_by_Eissink_/_Wwikix|requests the CU on Meta]] for "global ban evasion by Eissink / Wwikix". The forward slash in the title, and in the question below the accounts, can mean they are the same ("Eissink, also known as Wwikix"), or might mean the requesting user is in doubt who to connect the sockpuppets too ("either/or");
:::** The steward notices that the admin on Commons was only suggesting a connection with Eissink and advised to get the CU because they weren't sure. Let's also notice the user who did the original research back on Commons, looking for matching behavioural pattern across the sockpuppets, [[:c:Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard/Archive_92#Possibly_multiple_accounts_of_a_person?|did not mention Eissink or Wwikix]] in his original posting;
:::* The steward then looks as login info, and these match for the accounts. However, Eissinks account is not listed among the other sockpuppets, neither is Wwikix;
:::* Back on Commons, a user who reads the conclusion of the Steward, "checkuser information on Login wiki do match", and [[:c:Category:Sockpuppets_of_Eissink|creates a category]] to keep track of the sockpuppets of Eissink - since this name was in the title of the request on Meta. All accounts in the cat get the template they are sockpuppets of Eissink because the connection is there [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Wwikix&action=history ''according to the stewards'']. 
:::I have asked the admin on Commons to share the reasoning why they originally connected the sockpuppets to Eissink. Also, I think it would help to know if both the  accounts of Wwikix and Eissink were included in the review by the steward did (if they can still remember, I don't know if a login lookup is logged). [[User:Ciell|Ciell]] ([[User talk:Ciell|talk]]) 18:30, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
::::I agree with this interpretation: Looking back into the loginwiki logs, I cannot find CheckUser actions for either of both, Eissink and Wwikix, during that request in 2023. I can only see that the socks were checked. Unless [[User:Teles|Teles]] has other information on that, I cannot see a clear connection between Eissink and Wwikix which is why I would suggest to distinguish these two cases/users.

:::::Thanks @[[User:DerHexer|DerHexer]] for pinging. I don’t have access anymore to CU wiki, nor login wiki. I almost never store information on my personal computer; I prefer to store on CU wiki when required. So, I don’t have more technical infornation to share. It’s possible that I have read the case assuming that both accounts were already linked to each other by the way it was requested; I can’t remember for sure. I remember though that I was prepared to deny the checking at first for lacking reason, but then it was added and I considered enough for at least checking. Information on login wiki as far as I recall was clear enough to directly link the accounts. I just can’t remember whether only one account could be linked or both. Again, sorry for not helping much.

::::::If the conclusion is that there is no obvious connection between Eissink and Wwikix, could this perhaps be re-closed then?

:::::::@[[User:EPIC|EPIC]] that may be the best option if nothing can be retrieved from logs and it wouldn’t really change anything, unless the user is thinking about asking a ban lift. From someone that don’t follow closely these socks, I don’t think their edits are that much different on Commons, but I can’t say it’s enough to hit the duck test. I wouldn’t mind if categories on Commons are fixed so these accounts are not linked anymore, even though I would like to have a look on logs. Maybe @[[User:Multichill|Multichill]] or @[[User:Jeff G.|Jeff G.]] have something else to add? —[[User:Teles|Teles]] «[[User talk:Teles|<span style="text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.5em gray">'''Talk'''</span>]] ˱<small><sub>[[Special:Contributions/Teles|C]] [[Special:Log/Teles|L]] [[Special:Emailuser/Teles|@]] [[sulutil:Teles|S]]</sub></small>˲» 12:49, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
:::::::: So, based on the given LWCU log entries and behavioral analysis, this seems to be Wwikix all the way, so the locking was appropriate. But the alleged connection to Eissink is incorrect and should perhaps be updated both on Commons and in the lock reason (though I don't have a strong opinion on the latter) until there's compelling evidence that Wwikix == Eissink, which is not the case here or anywhere on cuwiki. The statement '{{tq|my guess is that this is all User:Eissink based on the edit pattern}}' (which is not even true) does not constitute substantiated evidence.{{pb}}We can indeed perhaps close this request since there's nothing left to do here - it's up to Commons admins to fix this misunderstanding.

: Sorry. I fixed the link already. Because of the community’s consensus and we want to have the CU result ASAP, so I submitted this request directly. This does not imply any change of the clerk system. Thanks. -[[user:Manchiu|Manchiu]] [[user talk:manchiu|(talk)]] 15:00, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
: Hello all. I have been requested to comment here about the status of the clerk system. Currently, there are only two active clerks on zhwiki (3 after Feb. 12th as I will return from WikiBreak, according to my zhwiki user page) from five clerks when the clerk system was originally established. I have recognized the need for additional clerks and will work closely and actively with the clerk team on seeking prospective clerks to join the team. This check is primarily endorsed by community; I support this sleeper check as well, noting the necessity given 夏土贤's frequent sock creations since Dec. 23 of last year. --[[User:ATannedBurger|<font size="0.01%"><math>\int</math></font>]]（[[User_talk:ATannedBurger|☎]]） 02:38, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

I found some other accounts in the check, though none of them are blocked. With that being said, the data from the last check was not documented anywhere and therefore I don't have much technical data to go by, except the log actions from the previous check.

: First of all, they are {{confirmed}}. And even though I investigated their ranges widely, I couldn't find the hidden account. And the ranges they use are normal ranges that are used by a lot of users, so I didn't block IP ranges because it seems like too much collateral damage would occur compared to the creation of their accounts. --[[User:Sotiale|Sotiale]] ([[User talk:Sotiale|talk]]) 07:40, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
