Identical disruptive editing on (i.e., changing the existing infobox photo to one with no copyright and licensing status information, changing the existing UK nationality, adding superfluous categories). The suspected sockmaster made this edit on November 19, and the suspected sockpuppet restored it a day later. I'm requesting CheckUser to identify whether there are sleeper accounts.

 * DaneNinty claims to be the subject's publicist. The fact that they both made the same edit is concerning, I have directly asked both about their relationship. Moving to "on hold." Based on their editing, I don't think these are the same person, but Actionfan could either be a second person with an undisclosed COI or a mercenary (though if they're a merc, they've been handling the same subject for three years now). If neither responds, I'm inclined to block one or the other since they're clearly working toward the same goal. GeneralNotability (talk) 16:42, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * , At this point, neither account has edited in over a month. If it's OK with you, I'd like to close this for now. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:26, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
 * , fine by me. GeneralNotability (talk) 17:04, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Closing for reasons noted above. If disruptive editing picks up again, we can re-examine at that time. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:21, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
