Similarity between this editor's favorite topics and that of say a lot, particularly the new account's page-creation-edit of  (created 01:08, 19 January 2021). New account Pusuan Sa Asian is already softer/promoname-blocked by. The only SPI history dates back less than 2 months so I'm not sure if a checkuser on this account and/or a sleeper-check is warranted or if this can be called WP:DUCKY enough.

Brand new user immediately dives into high-volume editing of TV show articles know to be widely sock and UPE infested, and getting involved in AfD and other project-space pages. They even asked to be granted confirmed permission. More specifically, asking for my ECP of A2Z (Philippine TV channel) to be removed, and when turned down, making the same request at WP:RPP, both times with oddly specific changes being requested. Obviously not a legitimate new user; less clear if they're actually a APC sock.

There's a bunch of non-stale accounts in the archives, but some of them are on the verge of going stale, so requesting this be checked soon. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:01, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

There are a number of sockmasters editing on the same ranges as this case, and there is heavy dynamic traffic as well which complicates the check.

 * I have evidence to prove that IP:209.35.165.196 is a block evasion of Verificado039095 and Verificado039095. The sockpuppet is doing unconstructive fancruft edits by targeting and adding unreliable sources and fake informations about numerous articles about GMA Network's shows and films, Kantar Media Philippines, AGB Nielsen Philippines, and all Filipino artists, among many other pages.
