Suspected sockpuppets
Similar, nearly identical user pages created - first by Caramsey, then by Sheed. Both also made one edit to a biography (Caramsey & Sheed).

Not too sure what's up with this, but the user pages raised an eyebrow. Schrödinger's jellyfish &#9993; 00:52, 28 March 2024 (UTC) More. Similar weirdness. Looks like a bot is at work. Similar user pages that evolve through time. There are more in the edit filter log 499













Might want a checkuser to sort this.&#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:37, 28 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I'm hoping someone recognizes this pattern and knows the actual sockmaster. I doubt caramsey is the first. Phönedinger&#39;s jellyfish II (talk) 19:02, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
 * On second thought, and this may be a little out there - is this the chance this is something at a university that isn't affiliated with WikiEd? Multiple user pages reference being a student, and they all seem to be following some assignment format with varying grammar, edit summaries, and fun facts with references.

 * Could be. &#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 19:07, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Sorry to give you the notification about a reply. Is it possible to just have this closed (if a passing clerk sees this) as I'm pretty sure 1. this was just a university class that may not have been aware of WikiEd and 2. everything, if this was something sinister, is now stale? I don't want to clog up SPI when there's already a backlog. Jellyfish (mobile) (talk) 14:57, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * This seems like a misguided edit-a-thon or university/school class. Therefore, I will close this case without action. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 10:18, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
