It might not be possible to tell for sure, but see this "manifesto", and this weird rant; where an admin blocked the IP as an obvious sock. might be a sock as well.

Also, the manifesto basically is taunting us, saying we're not going to stop him from trolling. -- Rockstone  Send me a message!  16:48, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

I observed the abuse filter logs, and noticed that was disallowed by edit filters from making changes to other editors' user pages. The user's first edits were attempts to add sock puppetry templates to the user space of other accounts. This is obviously suspicious, as this user is definitely not new. I also noted that a discussion at ANI involving this user was occurring here. After investigating the technical data, the list of users is a result of the investigation and findings. All accounts are indefinitely blocked and tagged; this SPI report is being filed retro-actively for historical and record-keeping purposes, and will be closed upon submission.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   11:00, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

I just declined a check against Sockpuppet investigations/CafeGurrier66, but looking closer at the matter, I think there's a case to be made for one against Awolf58/Mrbeastmodeallday. This edit removing MBMAD's name at Talk:United States is incredibly suspicious, and the subsequent targeting of CactiStaccingCrane, who had been professing strength in the face of MBMAD's disruption, is in-line with MBMAD's recent harassment of various perceived enemies. The generally CIR-ish behavior in projectspace is as fitting for MBMAD as it is for CafeGurrier. Focus is on articles about countries or other major topics and their talk pages, like MBMAD. Many edits adding links to "X in " on country articles , much like MBMAD. -- Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 06:49, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

Created 18 hours after I semi'd Awolf58/Mrbeastmodeallday's favorite page, Talk:United States, for a month. Immediately dove in to talk pages and articles about countries (China, Russia, Canada) and other current-events topics (Assassination of Shinzo Abe, Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization); compare and the evidence in. Less than 24 hours after becoming autoconfirmed, made their way to Talk:United States. Then made another comment, this one to criticize CactiStaccingCrane (see previous filings), as well as to undo a past change that CSC had made to the archival setup to get MBMAD disruption off the page faster. Userpage says they're a fan of the Golden State Warriors, a team local to MBMAD that plays in a sport MBMAD is a fan of. -- Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 08:40, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

 * לילך5 is claiming in their unblock request that this is a joe job by Awolf58/Mrbeastmodeallday. That seems plausible to me: It's the kind of thing MBMAD would do, there's no clear benefit to לילך5, and the usernames are similar in the way you'd expect of a non-Hebrew speaker picking similarity based on letter shape (older account is "Lailakh 5", newer is "Lailar 5").

Special:Diff/1099477941 and Special:Diff/1099483806 look quite suspicious. Two accounts created less than an hour apart, making these almost identical edits to talk pages of more established users (likely to be returning user(s) in some form). The former account's edits also loosely follow some patterns of other blocked socks – hopefully this doesn't keep spiraling out of control, but there could be a broader connection. Would like a second opinion regarding CheckUser. ComplexRational (talk) 01:45, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Awolf58 has previously been involved in sockpuppetry at Talk:United States (see protection log), and the day after a section on the talk page called Manifest Destiny was created, this account was made. Aside from editing United States, an article that Awolf58 had previously heavily edited under sock User:Mrbeastmodeallday, Manisfest Destiny has also been following the edits of Mason.Jones (courtesy ping) across multiple articles. Note that Awolf58 had previously impersonated Mason using the sock User:Mayson.Jones. &ddagger; Night Watch &omega;    (talk)   15:17, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

 * The editor with a history as "MrBeastModeAllDay" was angered by a couple of my grammatical changes, then followed me/reverted me under a similar username to mine, "Mayson.Jones." He had a later dispute with several other regular editors of "United States" over the term manifest destiny, then adopted that name as a new moniker. Today he reverted an old edit of mine, and in his edit summary (strangely) berated me because another editor had reverted him. Mason.Jones (talk) 16:01, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

The usual. Sleeper account suddenly making rapidfire edits and reverts at pages including, , and , consistent with past sox. "OAK" as in Oakland. Requesting CU to confirm and look for sleepers. -- Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 22:20, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Attempted to edit user page of about 18 hours before said account was blocked and tagged as a sock by Drmies. Only mainspace edit is vandalism. Uhai (talk) 14:04, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Hmm I don't see it: the attempted edit (caught by the filter) looks like basic incompetence and carelessness to me, not something that Awolf is known for. Drmies (talk) 14:52, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Looking a bit deeper, it seems like you may be right. JiafeiInformated had made a post to the Teahouse within a few hours after Jamaal5 had posted there.  I searched and found a mildly popular TikToker named Ayaan-Jamaal5 (the attempted edit made by JiafeiInformated mentioned that "Jamal is a tiktok star"), so I think JiafeiInformated recognized the name after seeing Jamaal5 on the Teahouse page and mistook the account's user page as article space or something.  Kind of an odd circumstance.  Regardless, this can be closed. Uhai (talk) 18:39, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry to butt in, but "Jamal" is also an pseudonym for a caricature of a young black male, and is also very, very popular on TikTok too. Just a possibly when they mentioned Jamal as being a star. Hope this helps . X750. Spin a yarn? Articles I've screwed over? 19:47, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Closed per above. Although account should be indeffed for regular disruptive editing if it makes (or attempts) further edits like these. --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 20:28, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
