Suspected sockpuppets

I'm not quite getting the connection between User:CheetaWolf and User:Sugarpuff888 because of their interactions on Articles for deletion/List of Billboard Mainstream Top 40 chart achievements, but the edit histories and types of edits of those two and the IP are very recent and similar. Suspicious of sockpuppetry when the IP participated in AfD discussion at Articles for deletion/List of Billboard Hot Country Songs chart achievements, which was nominated by User:Sugarpuff888.


 * 1) The two registered accounts have edited each other's talk pages but not for discussion:
 * 2) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sugarpuff888&diff=prev&oldid=814237085
 * 3) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:CheetaWolf&diff=next&oldid=814654873
 * 4) The two accounts received bot warnings for removal of AfD tag on the article List of Billboard Adult Contemporary chart achievements by decade (since deleted)
 * 5) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ACheetaWolf&type=revision&diff=808552250&oldid=806723852
 * 6) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ASugarpuff888&type=revision&diff=813863710&oldid=809449678
 * 7) Changing lists to an "em dash":
 * 8) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Adult_Contemporary_(chart)&diff=prev&oldid=806693448 (CheetaWolf)
 * 9) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mainstream_Top_40&diff=next&oldid=810402695 (97.114.43.158)
 * 10) Changing year ranges from 4 digits to 2 digits year:
 * 11) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mainstream_Top_40&diff=prev&oldid=810533194 (CheetaWolf)
 * 12) * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Adult_Top_40&diff=prev&oldid=813863933 (Sugarpuff888)
 * 13) First edits by Sugarpuff888 and IP 97.114.43.158 both occurred on 15 November 2017 to the same section of the same article Mainstream Top 40:
 * 14) * First edit by 97.114.43.158
 * 15) * First edit by Sugarpuff888
 * 16) All other articles edited by the IP have also been edited by Sugarpuff888, including Don't Speak and Forever and for Always. I note the addition of "all-time charts" sections to each by one of the other:
 * 17) * "Don't Speak" – All-time chart listing for Mainstream Top 40, added by 97.114.43.158 on 1 December 2017
 * 18) * "Forever and for Always" – All-time chart listing for Adult Contemporary, added by Sugarpuff888 on 8 December 2017
 * 19) Within an hour on 10 December 2017, both IP and Sugarpuff added Talk header templates to talk pages of articles on some older pop songs:
 * 20) * Talk header added to Forever and for Always talk page by 97.114.43.158
 * 21) * Talk header added to Goodbye to You (Michelle Branch song) talk page added by Sugarpuff888 less than 30 minutes later.
