If an account has been shown to be a sock puppet used for policy violations, then it may be identified as such, by adding {{tl|SockpuppetProven}} to the user page and {{tl|sockblock}} to the talk page of the sock puppet account. There are three tags available, one for violations confirmed by [[m:CheckUser Policy|Checkuser]], another for other forms of confirmed sockpuppet use, and a third for suspected violations:
* {{[[{{ns:Template}}:SockpuppetCheckuser|SockpuppetCheckuser]]|Username|Optional name of CheckUser case (what is after <code>Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/</code>)}}
* {{[[{{ns:Template}}:SockpuppetProven|SockpuppetProven]]|<nowiki>1=Username|evidence=[[EvidenceLink]]</nowiki>}}. "EvidenceLink" can be replaced with something such as "<font color="blue"><nowiki>[[Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Username]]</nowiki></font>":
The original or best-known account of a user that operates sock puppets may be tagged with '''{{tl|Sockpuppeteer}}'''. If the sockpuppeteer has at least one proven sockpuppet, tag the user page with '''{{tl|Sockpuppeteerproven}}''' instead. Note that these tags are intended for abusive sock puppets and should not be used on the pages of people whose legitimate multiple accounts have not been blocked.
