==Usage==

*You ''think'' the account is a sock, but aren't sure and you haven't blocked it: {{tlx|Sock|MASTER}}
! Usage
*Sock has been blocked based on ''edits'': {{tlx|Sock|MASTER|blocked}}
! Code
*Sock has been blocked based on ''CheckUser evidence'': {{tlx|Sock|MASTER|confirmed}}.
! Output
To append links, evidence, or a brief note, use {{para|3}}. Useful for adding a diff to a checkuser's talk page, if the check was not conducted at SPI. If explaining behavioural evidence, be mindful of [[w:WP:BEANS|WP:BEANS]].<p>For sock''masters'', use {{tlx|Sockpuppeteer}}.}}

The template adds the [[Wikipedia:Controlling search engine indexing|<code><nowiki>__NOINDEX__</nowiki></code> magic word]].
==Case checking==
 
This template checks for [[Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser|checkuser]] and [[Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets|suspect sock puppet]] cases. If there are checkuser and a suspected sock puppet cases for the same user, the checkuser case will be listed in the message.
==Categories= Parameters ===
The first parameter in this table is '''required''' and the template will fail without it. All the other parameters are optional.

! Parameter(s)
! Values
! Notes
|-
|
* ''First positional parameter'' (optionally {{para|1}})
| ''Username of the sockmaster or suspected sockmaster''
| Just include the name, no "User:" or square brackets.
|-
|
* ''Second positional parameter'' (optionally {{para|2}})
|
* <code>spi</code>
* <code>suspected</code>
* <code>blocked</code>
* <code>proven</code>
* <code>confirmed</code>
* <code>cuconfirmed</code>
* <code>nbconfirmed</code>
|
* <code>spi</code>, <code>suspected</code> and default (nothing specified) - these are equivalent, and can be used if the user is still under investigation or has not yet been blocked or confirmed by checkuser.
* <code>blocked</code> - this is used for sockpuppets that have been blocked on behavioural evidence (the [[w:WP:DUCK|duck test]]) or behavioural evidence combined with a non-conclusive CU result (such as {{possible}}).
* <code>proven</code> - Behaviour is beyond reasonable doubt but there is no CU {{Confirmed}} result (CU may have given a different result).
* <code>confirmed</code>, <code>cuconfirmed</code> and <code>nbconfirmed</code> - A CU has {{Confirmed}} that the accounts are related.
|-
|
* ''Third positional parameter'' (optionally {{para|3}})
* {{para|evidence}}
| ''Evidence of sockpuppetry''
| This field can be used to link to the evidence of sockpuppetry, or to give a very brief summary (a couple of words). If this parameter is left blank and the sockpuppet investigation case page is a blue link, then a link to the case page is provided automatically.
|-
|
* {{para|spipage}}
| ''Subpage name (just the master) of the SPI if not the same as the master''
| This field can be used to specify a different SPI page if the page is not named for the master in parameter 2.
|-
|
* {{para|locked}}
|
* <code>yes</code>
| Use {{para|locked|yes}} if the account is [[:m:Locked global account|globally locked]].
|-
|
* {{para|notblocked}}
|
* <code>yes</code>
| This parameter can be used to remove the note about the account being blocked, such as when a version other than the default applies. Such as if an account is confirmed by a CheckUser but is left unblocked. ''This parameter works with all parameters.''
|-
|
* {{para|length}}
| ''Length of time the sockpuppet or suspected sockpuppet was blocked''
| Use this field if the sockpuppet or suspected sockpuppet was blocked for a specific length of time. This parameter defaults to "indefinitely". This parameter is ignored, and does not default to indefinitely, if <code>nbconfirmed</code> is used.
|-
|
* {{para|cat}}
* {{para|category}}
| ''Custom category name for the sockpuppet or suspected sockpuppet''
| This parameter defaults to the category "Sockpuppets of X" if the second positional parameter is set to "confirmed", and "Suspected sockpuppets of X" if the second positional parameter is set to anything else. Here, "X" is the username specified in the first positional parameter.
