 * - could a CU take a look at this please? I'm particularly interested if it looks like meatpuppetry or socking. As that'll influence the decision I'd make about what admin action to take. Thanks. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 09:01, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

 * OK - the three listed accounts are undoubtedly ✅ to one another. They have only edited from two IPs - separate ranges, same geolocation. I'll call them IPA and IPB. IPA has no other activity from any other accounts within the CU window. IPB looks like it might be a shared IP, like maybe in a college. It has a few other accounts on it, some of which are using different UAs, but some of which look identical to the listed accounts. None of these have edited from IPA however, and they aren't editing the same drafts/articles, so I'm inclined to think they're different people. Hope that helps in your decision making process!
