Suspected sockpuppets

Aside from the obviously thematic usernames; These users all appeared in last couple of days, fully focused on editing and Draft:Atlantic_Aquarium_(Original_Artwork) which is apparently an artwork created by "Christopher Wells", the Christopher Wells article was previously deleted as autobiographical content from User:Wells (Architecture) who was banned before apparent Socks showed up but then recreated by User:ReferenceTheUser.

Seems apparent that this is one individual, presumably Chris Wells, looking to subvert the Ban made on Aug 27. Paul Carpenter (talk) 18:05, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
After Sockpuppet investigations/Christopher Wells I/Archive had been closed, the sockpuppeteer continued to use IP addresses to publish more spam on his own person. User talk:73.252.33.205 and User talk:2601:3C4:4203:E53E:B8F5:73AF:D271:56FA are now nominated at CFD; both contained text very similar to the one used on previous locations. Note that the latter IP was only used on 8 September, so it is possible there is no need for any action on that. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 13:46, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

 * I would also take notice of edits following the same patterns over on wikiquote, by the second IP mentioned above. --Paul Carpenter (talk) 14:59, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh well. Now that this has repeated on at least three wikis (see simple:Christopher Wells/simple:User talk:ReferenceTheUser), it's really time for a global block. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 15:22, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

This CU will be declined for sure, but I've blocked the IPs per WP:DUCK. Jackmcbarn (talk) 15:27, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * As Jackmcbarn predicted, I'm declining the CheckUser request, since the tool cannot be used to connect IP's to registered accounts. With everyone already blocked, no further action is required. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:27, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

The user continues to create his autobiography under a different title, Draft:Ethelred Wells, after being blocked for sockpuppetry. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 07:40, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

 * The master is too for me to run a checkuser on. This will need a behavioral analysis and investigation...  ~Oshwah~  (talk)  (contribs)   18:42, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * This account is creating is the same hoax/garbage this sockfarm is known for, and the geolocation lines up from the logs. Blocked and tagged.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 19:43, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
