The IP adresses both share the same location 1 2. As for the user accounts, the following diffs, in chronological order: 113.185.40.200, Apple A13 Bionic 1, 113.185.45.22, Apple A13 Bionic 2, QuaIcomm250 1, QuaIcomm250 2 seem to support the argument that they are all the same person, as all of these edits are about the same thing, and the edit summaries are more or less the same. It would appear that the editor used both logging out and the creation of another account to create illusory support for his position, which is a violation of WP:SOCK. Another abusive use of the puppet account would be that it was made in an attempt to impersonate me, using a capital i instead of an l, for which it was banned from editing. So, CheckUser evidence is needed because the puppet account was used for disruptive edits in the Norman article, and for impersonating another user, both abusive acts.

Please refer to this previous sockpuppet investigation. I have reason to think that the relevant user of this previous investigation is block evading with a new sockpuppet account, Moheimad Hoezijn, because his most recent edit on the Normans article is in the exact same vein as those of Apple A13 Bionic 1 2 and his sockpuppet account meant to impersonate me, QuaIcomm250 1 2. It is also important to note that the account's first contributions were made shortly after the semi-protected status was lifted from the Normans article. CheckUser evidence is needed because a single edit probably isn't enough to prove a violation of WP:SOCK on its own, yet the charges of block evasion through further sockpuppetry are, I believe, serious enough to warrant an investigation.

 * Moheimad Hoezijn is ✅ to Apple A13 Bionic. I will note that the following accounts are also to Apple A13 Bionic, but absent a behavioral overlap, I don't think we can block them just yet:

In regard to the IP address, this WHOIS check seems to match the IP addresses that were proven to belong to the sockpuppeteer in the 31 October 2019 inquiry.

As for user Vinhyff, they follow the same modus operandi as Apple A13 Bionic, both in substance and form. Their edits are about the same thing, and they will switch between unlogged and logged edits, a.k.a. WP:CAST. Diffs: 1 2 3 4 5.

Finally, regarding Moernnibba and Moernibba is back baby, their vandalism of the Normans article always occurs minutes after Vinhyff's edits. These two 1 2, for example, respectively occurred 13 and 4 minutes after an edit by Vinhyff. The timing is suspicious; my opinion is that Vinhyff is trying to use vandalism to make their edits stay by causing patrollers to revert to them.

CheckUser evidence is needed because this user has been evading blocks for nearly three months now. Their edits are disruptive and completely ignore consensus/attempts to debate the issue, not to mention vandalistic if Moernnibba is proven to be them. This behaviour is toxic, the user is clearly not here to help build an encyclopedia. Qualcomm250 (talk) 04:52, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
