 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

First user-sock was created on the day of main account's 72-hour block of continued addition of original research and unsourced content to articles pertaining to Fifth Harmony. Their only interaction was directly to me, on my talk page, discussing edits made by the main account. Secondly, they are now using the IP to continuously edit while logged out, to continually add the same unsourced original content into articles, which could also be seen a on-set edit-warring behavior. This coupled with their inability to discuss things out following multiple warnings and their 72-hour block, it has become clear (s)he's definitely not here to edit constructively.

 * The accounts are . Given the behavioral overlap, I've blocked the account. (Also see the case below.) The account is currently blocked for 2 weeks, so I think it would be a bit excessive to extend it beyond that for now. I've left a warning that any additional accounts would lead to further blocks.

This IP is continuing to evade the block of User:Arifbehapiee, who was blocked after an ANI report about their repeated edit warring. IPadPerson (talk) 10:02, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

 * I feel I should point out that unless the abuse is especially severe or egregious, Checkusers will generally not check an account against an IP. — Jeremy  v^_^v  Bori! 17:44, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

Editor interaction utility shows but a single edit by the IP to an article edited by Arifbehapiee. That and the lack of any actual evidence from the OP means this case is flying nowhere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.153.132.83 (talk) 18:01, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

 * We won't check IPs and link them to accounts. I've semi-protected the article for a week to help prevent any new accounts from editing the page. Mike V • Talk 19:57, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

Both user's edit extensively on Fifth Harmony related pages, almost bordering on fan-pointed editing. Also, sock's name is a directly mimic of mine, given their feelings being made that I was disruptive editing the pages and removing informations that they felt were verifiable and valid, despite not being reliably sourced. Also, their wording syntax is exactly the same (see below for example).


 * Livelikemusicc (Arifbehapiee) — Both editors leave an open space between the final word prior to use of a comma.
 * Livelikemusicc (Arifbehapiee Arifbehapiee) — Both edits add the consecutive weeks in a Top 50 of the Billboard Albums Chart, just changing the number of weeks. Both without addition of a reliable source.  livelikemusic  my talk page! 23:45, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
