These are all SPAs, intent on adding unsourced claims about a possibly fictional "Chuck Canton" to Compass Inc. and Maelle Gavet. Checkuser requested as it is likely that there are other similar accounts. RolandR (talk) 13:37, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

As with other socks, adding text about a non-existent "Chuck Canton", with refs that do not mention this person, to various articles. CU requested to identify other accounts. RolandR (talk) 20:33, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

In the article on Maelle Gavet, Whunit makes the same odd claim about Chuckcanton as the other editors. See https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maelle_Gavet&oldid=872748814. 176.184.8.14 (talk) 14:50, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Yet another SPA adding references to an apparently fictional "Chuch Canton" into company articles. A new sock turns up every; CU requested to discover sleeper accounts. RolandR (talk) 23:47, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

We don't disclose IP(s) of named accounts. CU declined. I've semi-protected Estée Lauder Companies for one week. Unless the IP resumes editing, this report should be closed.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:10, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

Apparently another sock. Instead of adding "Chuck Canton", this edit removed "Maelle Gavet", which is consistent with the puppeteer's obsession. RolandR (talk) 16:35, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

✅, blocked and tagged. I believe checks have outlived their usefulness in this case, so unless there's a special reason to request a CU, future reports should be decided on behavior, which is generally fairly obvious. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:40, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
