Multiple times both these IPs appear on the same article, at the same time, trying to add or remove the same content. Typically, the Master gets reverted, may continue reverting to 3RR, then suddenly Sock#1 shows up to make the 4th revert. The other party has to stop or face 4RR themselves. Sometimes the tag-teaming to 4RR isn't necessary, Sock#1 shows up to make the first or return revert, giving the other editor the impression they are out-numbered and it's finished. The Master is always seems to be the first one in, and Sock#1 shows up after, when needed. This along with the 5000+ edits for the Mater and 500+ edits for Sock#1, in virtually the same time frame, supports the theory that the Master is the main account and Sock#1 only comes out when needed, or to establish activity that appears independent. Here are some examples;
 * Edit-warring
