Suspected sockpuppets
[edit]
- These four users appear to be a WP:TAGTEAM (or puppets) in a dispute over the etymology origin of the word, curry, which Snowcream has been arguing and edit-warring for months as singularly from the Tamil language. Curry is a thoroughly edited and neutrally-sourced GA.
- Special:Diff/1301258919 – after the curry article achieved GA in January 2025, Snowcream made a large revert in July disputing the word origin, and accusing editors of “massive rigging by an editor with systemic bias”.
- Special:Diff/1301449907 displays Snowcream’s adamant belief that the issue is “biased” against Tamil, and calls an established editor – the one who brought the article to GA – a “white supremacist”.
- Snowcream is warned for WP:PA and using the curry talk page as a forum for accusations against another editor.
- Special:Diff/1317965162 (20 Oct) is Snowcream’s last edit, which is reverted.
- Special:Diff/1319166909 (27 Oct) – a neutral editor posts a meatpuppet message indicating there is a Reddit forum about the Wikipedia curry article and Tamil etymology.
- Users YawnkyDoodle, Harsh Subramaniam, and OrigamiSoft begin editing the curry article and talk page on 27 Oct, using the same content and Tamil-only arguments as Snowcream. The curry article and talk page focus are the only edits made by all three users. Zefr (talk) 18:24, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
