After he was blocked he has now created two different accounts, solely for make the same edits and arguments on List of mobile network operators of the Middle East and Africa and List of mobile network operators of Europe. On Europe see and. For Middle East see, and.

I know the Jewboy account has been blocked for other reasons, but still mentioning for pattern and showing order of account creation. -  Galatz Talk  19:46, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * The three accounts are ✅ matches to one another. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 21:22, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

I've just blocked this obvious sock, but can a CU be run to flush out any more sleepers? &#8209; Iridescent 01:59, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

 * A CU was just run a few days ago, and there's no reason to suppose there are "sleepers". Closing. Bbb23 (talk) 02:03, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * @Bbb23, you mean aside from the fact that this was a sleeper account created just after the last lot were blocked but only activated today? &#8209; Iridescent 02:06, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * That's not accurate. The master was blocked on January 10 at 17:47. One of the other two accounts was blocked at almost exactly the same time, and the second was blocked on January 7. This latest account was created on January 9 at 22:27 and edited three hours later on January 10 at 1:31, hardly what I would call a sleeper.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:14, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Could you please also consider extending the master's block? This, this, this, this, this, and the block evasion is giving me a real NOTHERE vibe. Thanks,  GABgab 02:13, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, I agree and have raised it to indef. Yes, this is out of process; if anyone wants to complain about my not extending due process to this racist trolling sockpuppeteer, you know how to find ANI. &#8209; Iridescent 02:24, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * It's not "out of process". FWIW, in my view it was exactly the right thing to do. Thanks for taking care of it.--Bbb23 (talk) 03:19, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

His only two edits are very clearly a block evasion for his original account.  Galatz Talk  14:16, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

 * After some discussion with other administrators, I now believe this block was made in error. See discussion at User talk:Mz7 and User talk:EXaline. Mz7 (talk) 20:09, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * and, please don't unblock until I've completed my investigation. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:27, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks. Mz7 (talk) 20:36, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * This requires more thought and another pair of eyes. I plan on consulting with another CheckUser, and given the American holiday, it's unlikely I'll be able to report back soon. Thanks for your patience.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:05, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
 * EXaline and, which I believe is the only non-stale sock in the archive, are ❌. That said, EXaline is technically identical to various accounts that are blocked or globally locked. However, as far as I can tell, EXaline's behavior does not match any of those accounts. All of these accounts are using proxy servers or webhosts. Contrary to what EXaline says on his Talk page, he is not using a VPN server. I do not endorse granting the unblock request, but, as a CheckUser, I will not "prevent" it.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:37, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Closing this for now - nothing more to be done on the SPI side. GABgab 15:51, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
