Suspected sockpuppets

The editorial profile of Belson 303 carries an uncannily similar style to that of unauthenticated users 190.181.202.83 and 181.189.226.120 in that each user has made very similar edits to pages which have subsequently had to be reverted by other editors as they are, at best, unhelpful, and, at worst, account for nothing more than vandalism, as each edit is attempting to change the factual content of the article.

To give a specific example, the article Lisa Miskovsky has been edited by each user to change certain facts about Ms Miskovsky’s ethnicity. Each time this is subsequently reverted by another editor (based on the consensus agreed in the Talk page), this user, or one of its sock puppets then re-edits the page with a citation that they are “reverting possible vandalism”. Given the fact that the edits are essentially by and large the same from each of the above, it seems fairly clear that this is a sock puppet, and that even after significant effort has been made by a number of editors to engage through the various talk pages, guidance and warnings are not being heeded. This has ultimately lead to the Miskovsky article having protection put in place, however, as you will see from the edit history, all this has ended up doing is provoking the user to make their edits through an authenticated account instead.

I agree with what Demonuk said and would add that the same two IP address editors make the exact same edits/reversions on the Carolina Miskovsky page. The user is determined to portray both Miskovsky sisters as Finnish-Czech-Swedish rather than the agreed-upon consensus: Swedish. GetSomeUtah (talk) 12:10, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
