Umpteenth duck of this blocked user. YJ has made a spate of disruptive edits, not all of which are on my watchlist and was reverting where applicable piecemeal. After they ignored mine and other's warnings, I looked at all their contributions and saw this interesting one:

YJ made the change form 1994 to 1997 where the previous edit was a week ago Binksternet reverted an IP change identified as the oft-blocked BushidoBrown which included the exact same 1994/1997 change.

I'm sure there's others to be found. BB is very prolific and quick and limited to a few subject areas. JesseRafe (talk) 13:20, 17 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Additional article interest behavioral evidence: A majority of the articles edited are for current NYC-based rappers plus... Eazy-E. Which is a strange and very particular overlap. (BB edited Eazy-E's article, YJ edited the label he founded, Ruthless Records).


 * Additional editing behavioral evidence: BB changing "one" to "1" and YJ changing "one"/"first" to "1". JesseRafe (talk) 14:25, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

 * BushidoBrown was socking from Wilmington, Delaware, IPs, as reported in this ANI case which resulted in a six-month rangeblock starting in August 2017. So if YoungJuvenile is in Delaware, that's a clue.
 * However, there's only one sockmaster I know of that is interested in the height of rappers and that's the Dog and rapper vandal. Here is a previous height addition – the units are always metric first despite the American topic. Here is evidence in the "view source" edit summary that the Dog and rapper vandal was interested in the same biography about Nas. See Long-term abuse/Dog and rapper vandal and Sockpuppet investigations/John Kwiecinski.
 * In any case, there's a problem here with WP:CIR as seen here. Binksternet (talk) 14:59, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

The listed master is. CU declined.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:08, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Already blocked by for socking. Not sure if for this user, and he can note it here if he wants. Closing since there isn't anything else left to do here. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:31, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
 * TonyBallioni, I marked it as "woof! rap!", so that's what I was thinking. ;) Drmies (talk) 14:36, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
 * And to think, I missed that lovely talk page exchange by only looking at the block log and userpage. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:38, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

Same as before, a series of IPs from Wilmington, Delaware, were performing the same kinds of edits as BushidoBrown, on the same articles of interest, and then Crespo mack appeared to continue the disruption after the IPs were blocked. Here's one sequence, unusually about a tech firm rather than hip hop music. Here's another sequence. Checkuser requested to search for sleepers. Binksternet (talk) 23:09, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

CheeseAndDope registered in March following the year-long block of BushidoBrown's previously used IP range, Special:Contributions/2601:46:4:F229:0:0:0:0/64 from Delaware. (Note the August 2017 ANI report here discussing the style and Delaware IP addresses of BushidoBrown]].) CheeseAndDope began editing the same articles as BushidoBrown socks, articles about rap music artists, songs, albums, films and labels. Delaware IP 2601:46:200:27F7:D499:BBB0:870B:D12F changed the origin parameter into a birthplace parameter here (with no supporting reference), and when that was reverted CheeseAndDope did the same thing here. BushidoBrown IPs changed the Hypnotize Minds article from inactive to active here and here, and when this was reverted CheeseAndDope made the same edit here. A Delaware IP changed the Frayser Boy birthplace to Frayser neighborhood here, and then CheeseAndDope made the same edit here. Crespo mack is listed here because the account was blocked with a note about probably block evasion by BushidoBrown. Checkuser is requested to tie together the disruption and search for sleepers.
