*You ''think'' the account is a sock, but aren't sure and you haven't blocked it: {{tlx|SockpuppetSock|MASTER}}
*Sock has been blocked based on ''edits'': {{tlx|SockpuppetSock|MASTER|blocked}}
*Sock has been blocked based on ''CheckUser evidence'': {{tlx|SockpuppetSock|MASTER|confirmed}}.
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}}.}}

Line 48 ⟶ 46:
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 73 ⟶ 71:
|
* <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.
Line 109 ⟶ 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.
