Africa boyz created a promotional draft for Draft:Icepondis, Joshua created Icepondis. Both were apparently caught in the same proxy block (see both their talk pages, but there was no block), as a side note Africa boyz is the name of the record label so has a username issue, its not a case of they abandoned that account as both accounts were active at the same time.

 * Joshua also created Draft:Isaiah Oluwatobiloba before creating Icepondis which are both word for word copies of each other. An admin is definitely needed to sort that bit out. Lavalizard101 (talk) 11:55, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Joshua has also created articles on other artists of questionable notablity: Barry Jhay‎, Draft:Martins feelz. Lavalizard101 (talk) 12:20, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Note that Africa boyz is now blocked for their username. Lavalizard101 (talk) 13:37, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * (comment after close) if just nominated the article Icepondis for speedy under g6 as it is the copy of Draft:Isaiah Oluwatobiloba. Lavalizard101 (talk) 18:16, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

I've added three more suspected socks, all entangled with Isaiah Omoniyi Oluwatobiloba/Icepondis, and requested CU.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:18, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * They are all operating on some very busy ranges, which all geolocate to the same city. As such, they're all to each other, and I'd say that  is  to, and that  is likely to ; Icepondis doesn't have any technical connection to the others aside from the geolocation. I'll leave someone else to review the contribs and decide on blocking and tagging.    Girth Summit  (blether)  17:51, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I've blocked all the unblocked accounts and tagged the master and the others as suspected. I don't think it's worthwhile to distinguish between the levels of technical connection among them. As for Icepondis, I imagine he is a meat puppet, which is blockable, but, unfortunately, does not have separate templates. Closing. Bbb23 (talk) 18:02, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
