Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/BQUB16-Mgravalos
I just chanced upon an SPI Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/BQUB16-Mgravalos. These may be students, see ca:Viquiprojecte:Bioquímica_UB on the Catalan Wikipedia. Can anyone help to verify? --Lemongirl942 (talk) 15:45, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
- Pinging @Kippelboy: from Amical. TFlanagan-WMF (talk) 16:38, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
- Hi! Yes, they are biochemistry students from University of Barcelona. Teacher started project back on 2009 and each semester new students create accounts with the acronym BQUB16_username (for biochemistry University of Barcelona + number of the year + First letter of name + Surname). How can I help?--Kippelboy (talk) 06:09, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you. Looks like all is well :) The SPI was closed by Vanjagenije. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 09:03, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

"Mr. Anane"'s class creating pages
@Daoasamoah: created page Daoasamoah saying that "Our lecturer, Mr. Anane told us to create a page on Wikipedia." A picture of a dead fish (talk) 00:54, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
- @A picture of a dead fish: Thanks for the heads up. Both this student and the one in the section above look to have been given welcome messages and have not edited again. Doesn't look like enough to go on to find the instructor/school at this point unless the students respond, but keep us posted if you come across additional information. Pinging TFlanagan-WMF to keep him in the loop. --Ryan (Wiki Ed) (talk) 22:15, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
- My bad, didn't see the template at the top of the page, thanks for templating for me. A picture of a dead fish (talk) 01:22, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
Chester M. Southam
Class is directly editing the article, adding unsourced content, WP:UNDUE content, badly formatted content, etc. This course: Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/UC Berkeley/IB35AC Wikipedia Project- Section 106 (Fall). User:Ian (Wiki Ed) is listed as the WP person there. Edit warring now too. Jytdog (talk) 22:39, 12 November 2016 (UTC)
- Note: i reported at ANI here and asked for the page to be protected. Jytdog (talk) 01:46, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- Note - one of them got so frustrated they created a sock impersonating me and was just blocked for socking. out of control class. too bad they are getting no guidance. Jytdog (talk) 03:36, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:38, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Jytdog: Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have reachd out to the professor to alert her of the situation and to advise her students that this type of behavior is unacceptable. Helaine (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:39, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
