I agree that is a sock, the account was created today and tried to remove PROD from the article created by DataNomad, [1][2] also, he voted in the deletion discussion. [3] (This article was created by DataNomad) Kajmer05 (talk) 16:42, 9 June 2025 (UTC)

edit- Clerk endorsed - please also check against DataNomad (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) as this one isn't repeating the obviously ducky Average kurd pattern. asilvering (talk) 16:58, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- Eternalhk is likely+ to DataNomad and I have blocked accordingly. DataNomad is not tagged and the discussion above does not make it clear whether they are the master. Technically, those two do appear to be different from master. Speaking of whom, this case needs to be merged into WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Kurdo7aladen. Izno (talk) 17:25, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for checking those two. We'll need to split this one out to a new DataNomad SPI and merge the rest. -- asilvering (talk) 17:28, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- Clerk note: Split from Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Average kurd. Average kurd and socks are associated with Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kurdo7aladen and will be merged there. -- asilvering (talk) 18:37, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- Tagging and closing. -- asilvering (talk) 18:39, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- Er, this time for real. Tagging the master properly (I hope). -- asilvering (talk) 20:18, 9 June 2025 (UTC)

It's likely to be DataNomad, They have the same behaviour with their previous Account "eternalhk" which is trying to act normal and fix grammar mistakes,[4][5][6] just like their previous account did the same but in different articles.[7][8][9][10][11] they are trying to create another article of shooting or massacre in their draft just like their old-created articles such as Sulaymaniyah massacre. I want to note something about DataNomad, thier previous username in Wikipedia was "Kuripenjwen" which means in kurdish "The son of Penjwen" and Penjwen is a district from Sulaymaniah City, which it shows that it's not a coincidence of them creating an article about this city.R3YBOl (🌲) 09:14, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- They have noted that they are from the Penjwen district in their first-blocked account.[12] R3YBOl (🌲) 09:21, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- I forgot to mention that the account was created on June 11th and on June 11th they created this draft article as their first edit, which is obviously clear that they are an experienced editor. R3YBOl (🌲) 09:28, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

- Their editing style matches that of DataNomad, especially in their new draft. They also edit from Mobile just like the rest of the accounts. Looks like a duck to me 𐩣𐩫𐩧𐩨 Abo Yemen (𓃵) 10:06, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

editDataNomad is back again with a new sock, Well it's an IP account. They are having the same old behaviours that their previous socks had, which is fixing grammar
Previous socks fixing grammar:[13][14][15][16][17]
Their recent edits in fixing grammar mistakes:[18][19]
I wanted also to state this difference;(1)They also left comments on the talk page of the article created by DataNomad (2) both added kurdish volunteers to the infobox [20][21] (both used same sources) Dersimi, Nuri. Kürdistan Tarihinde Dersim. 1952, p. 280. R3YBOl (🌲) 12:43, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

Aligns with DataNomad's interest in events related to Kurds in Iraq. Most notably, the overlap on 2016 Kirkuk expulsions and some formatting quirks make me almost certain we're dealing with a sock. This sock was created shortly after the last. Likely that there's another waiting in the wings. ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:06, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
- @Asilvering: DataNomad was an anti-Kurd editor, so the behavior aligns. The article 2016 Kirkuk expulsions details a likely criminal act perpetrated by the Kurdish government in Iraq. Like DataNomad, the Bins1000 works in large quantities of piecemeal edits when creating an article. Like DataNomad, these are mobile edits. The format of citations—always only a linked title followed by only the publication's name—are also identical between the accounts. This is a sock. ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:35, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
- The now-deleted Allegations of ethnic cleansing by Kurdish forces in northern Syria (2015–2016) also serves as an indication that DataNomad is the prototype to Bins1000, who had to request an IP block exemption that I presume was set up to prevent DataNomad socks from reemerging. ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:37, 15 July 2025 (UTC)

Yep, that's them, I was going to file an SPI against this user, but Pbritti acted faster than me, just look at these two articles, 2016 Kirkuk expulsions Kurdification campaigns in northern Iraq the editing patterns in both articles are the same, the infobox is very similar to each other, and they continue to edit from mobile as usual. They were doing farming editing in the articles they created, just like the previous socks, and they are doing it again. Looks like a duck to me. Kajmer05 (talk 08:37, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
@Pbritti There is a huge misunderstanding here. I don't want to accuse anyone here but Pbritti thinks that DataNomad is an anti-kurdish editor. in reality he had his information displayed that he was a kurd from Penjwen District.[22] This is obvious that the editor makes these articles not to show the bad image of the kurds.. he actually supports these war crimes. and his previous articles that were created towards iraqis can stand for itself as an evidence of this guy supports kurdish war crimes against Syrians and Iraqis, I want to note that I agree this is likely to be DataNomad R3YBOl (🌲) 09:17, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
- @Asilvering I forgot to mention that Bins1000 has created a draft about a crime that goes by the name Murder of Helena Aloun Sawa, which They had previously edited a similar crime article Draft:Murders of Brandy Petrie and Avery Levely-Flesher here. [23] R3YBOl (🌲) 09:32, 15 July 2025 (UTC)

edit- Pbritti, can you provide more specific evidence? I'm not convinced - I'd associate editing a topic like Kurdification campaigns in northern Iraq with anti-Kurdish nationalism. asilvering (talk) 01:23, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
