First ran into TimySmidge because of a premature RfA that got snowballed. Got more involved with him due to his violation of Fair Use policy with articles in userspace. I suddenly received notices about "his son", User:TimySmidge Jr. I also received an unlogged-in request from the son, asking about retrieving his lost password. Then earlier today, I received a random (and mildly negative) comment from a brand-new user, User:ChristianHJH, alerting me to yet another Smidge sock, (the Harry Potter Fan one). (and I've had experiences with a puppetmaster "alterting" me to their other socks, and there's little reason for any new user to come to me first about such news) The user creation log confirms that "Harry Potter Fan" was created by the original TimySmidge account.

TimySmidge is also involved in a currently open SSP case: Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Peter Vogel. I'd like CheckUser run so we can wipe out all the socks that might be hiding in the drawer. EVula // talk // ☯ // 02:47, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Results:

• Confirmed that user:TimySmidge, user:TimySmidge Jr., user:TimySmidge Jr (recreated), user:Harry Potter Fan AKA TimySmidge, user:ChristianHJH, and the IP 64.107.161.130 are related. Tag and block.
• Inconclusive as to whether any of the users named in the open SSP case: Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Peter Vogel are related to each other. Block on behaviour.
• Keep an eye on new user User:Damekb... potential sock but not confirmed. Nothing else found in my checks at this time.
