At 22:11 on 28 May I indeffed Coder196 for repeated copyright violations at Draft:Fengqi You, the only topic that I can see that he/she showed an interest in (some edits have been oversighted). Little more that 24 hours later, Chicago20092016 created an account and went straight to the same draft. This seems completely obvious, but my judgement has already been called into question once today, so I'd be grateful if someone else would look at it and do anything that's needed. Thank you, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:51, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

 * No concerns with your judgement in this case Justlettersandnumbers. ✅, blocked and tagged.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:00, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , any particular reason the master isn't tagged? Reviewing the case before archiving and wanted to check whether that was intentional - if not, I'm happy to take care of it. creffett (talk) 20:57, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
 * On a first case of socking I generally don't tag the master if there isn't evidence that they were aware that creating a new account constituted block evasion.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:01, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
 * For example, if Coder196 wasn't already blocked indefinitely for copyright violations, I likely would have only blocked them for a week or two for the WP:SOCK violation and not tagged them as a sockmaster unless they socked again, in which case WP:AGF goes out the window.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:07, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , and this is why I asked first! Thanks for the explanation, will archive. creffett (talk) 21:20, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

 * This is ZhaoNing, and it is my main and only wikipedia account. I do not know who are the other users that edited Draft:Fengqi You‎. Currently, I have only edited this page, because Prof. Fengqi You is a well-known professor in the field of energy systems engineering, and I just learned that this page is under editing. In all, this is not a sockpuppet account. --  ZhaoNing 02:30, 01 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Same smaller city as before, just different ranges because of blocks and home/work connections. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 23:39, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
