Suspected sockpuppets

On this article, the sockmaster makes many consecutive edits to add in information about umpires for various matches. Examples:


 * Diff1
 * Diff2
 * Diff3
 * Diff4

All edits are tagged with the "Mobile edit, Mobile web edit". The user has been warned before about adding incorrect/unsourced future information specifically relating to this, but sometimes ignores this.

The IP make this batch of edits to the same article:
 * Diff1
 * Diff2
 * Diff3
 * Diff4

The last one adding in the umpire information. However, the scorecard for this match is not active on the external site, so there's no way to verify this information. The IP also edits with the "Mobile edit, Mobile web edit" tag, with the IP address located in India, the same place as the sockmaster. I've spotted the sockmaster hoping to IP edits in the past, but thought they'd stopped doing this, until last night. It's continued sneaky disruption to evade the talkpage warnings that have been flagged to this user several times before.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 08:29, 16 April 2017 (UTC)

 * may be a case of logged-out editing but I don't think this is terribly problematic. In any case the IP has not edited in several weeks. Closing. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 02:07, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
