*You ''think'' the account is a sock, but aren't sure and you haven't blocked it: {{tlx|Sock|MASTER}}
*Sock has been blocked based on ''edits'': {{tlx|Sock|MASTER|blocked}}
*Sock has been blocked based on ''CheckUser evidence'': {{tlx|Sock|MASTER|checkedconfirmed}}.
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]].
 
=== Parameters ===
The first parameter in this table is '''required''' and the template will fail without it. All the other parameters are optional.
 
Line 55 ⟶ 67:
* <code>proven</code>
* <code>confirmed</code>
* <code>cuconfirmed</code>
* <code>nbconfirmed</code>
|
* <code>spi</code> and, <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> and- <code>confirmed</code>Behaviour -is thesebeyond arereasonable useddoubt whenbut thethere sockpuppetis hasno beenCU confirmed{{Confirmed}} byresult checkuser.(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.
* <code>nbconfirmed</code> - this is also for when the sockpuppet has been confirmed by checkuser, but mentions the Checkuser specifically ("A Checkuser has shown that this account is a sockpuppet of X" versus "This account is a sockpuppet of X").
* If no second parameter is specified, the template outputs a generic message: "An editor has expressed a concern that this account may be a sockpuppet of X".
|-
|
Line 68 ⟶ 80:
| ''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.
|-
|
Line 74 ⟶ 91:
* <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.
|-
|
Line 84 ⟶ 107:
* {{para|category}}
| ''Custom category name for the sockpuppet or suspected sockpuppet''
| This parameter defaults to the category "Wikipedia sockpuppetsSockpuppets of X" if the second positional parameter is set to "confirmed", and "Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of X" if the second positional parameter is set to anything else. Here, "X" is the username specified in the first positional parameter.

* [[:Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets]] and ''Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of <nowiki>{{{1}}}</nowiki>'';
