The master was blocked two years ago. StokerB and Momentum7 (and the IP) popped up as obvious socks on WP:Articles for deletion/Angelina Green (2nd nomination), and Momentum7 opened a DRV on this, which seems rather precocious for an editor with just over 100 edits. It's a slam-dunk that those two are socks, but the tie in to the master is that Bluecheeses was the original creator of Angelina Green, so I figured it's worth a look. All three seem to be concentrating on promotional articles for singers. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:03, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

I would add as further evidence that both Bleucheeses and Momentum share an interest in America's got Talent and edit the articles of young performers. Both argue that a Golden Buzzer Award infers notability. SpinningSpark 15:29, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

 * I was looking at this separately to DQ, I'd add that the four confirmed socks are (at best and take it with some salt) to Bleucheeses. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 00:14, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I see you've already done most of the blocks I was going to suggest, but I'd also block StockerB on behavioral evidence alone, despite the CU coming up blank on those two. The AfD participation seems irrefutable.  Maybe meat instead of sock, but working with a common cause just the same.  I'd also G5 User:Themoment2/Angelina Green.  Then, the only question left is whether Bleucheeses is related to the rest of these.  If they're not, then this really should be split out into its own case under a different master, but given that Bleucheeses is already blocked for other reasons, I'm not sure it's worth the effort to worry about that.  My other thought on that is it's close to two years since Bleucheeses's last edit, so it wouldn't be surprising that the technical indicators of the others have evolved in that time, and thus not a great match.  Which means I'm not too worried about the "possible with a grain of salt" finding.  I'd leave it filed under the current master.  -- RoySmith (talk) 00:34, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The accounts I blocked also need to be tagged. Maybe the best way to do that is with the alt master parameters described at sock. I agree that Bleucheeses is probably the master here so it can stay here. Just a note with G5, if we ignore the connection to Bleucheeses then G5 doesn't apply as the page was created in violation of (that is, evading) a block. If we bring Bleucheeses back in an you're happy with that connection then the page would have been created in violation of Bleucheeses so can be deleted per G5.

 * , Could you look at User:Momentum7? Something went haywire with the sock template that I can't figure out. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:58, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * PS, my inclination here is to just call them all socks of Bleucheeses and not invest the effort to make the altmaster stuff work correctly. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:08, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Fixed, it needed suspected rather than blocked as the status. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:48, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Nothing left to do, closing. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:12, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
