Earlier this month, I filed a 3RR report concerning these five edits by Dean1997:


 * 02:01, 15 February 2016 m.
 * 02:23, 15 February 2016 m.
 * 02:31, 15 February 2016 m. (Just to point out that St Vincent is Cara Delevingnes Partner in the side box)
 * 21:15, 20 February 2016 m.
 * 00:42, 1 March 2016 m. (Just adding St Vincent as Cara Delevingnes partner)

He apologized, promised to desist, and the matter was closed with a warning.

Today, Manc2545—created a few hours ago—made this edit:


 * 21:18, 17 March 2016 m. (Just adding St Vincent as her partner to her inbox.)

Based on this evidence, my argument for sockpuppetry is this:


 * 1) In addition to making a nearly identical edit—Manc2545's sole edit—to the same page with a nearly identical, idiosyncratic edit summary ("just"; minor edit), the two users share a clear naming pattern.
 * 2) The sockpuppet is being used to circumvent Wikipedia policy against disruptive editing.   Rebbing    talk   03:15, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  19:45, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Dean1997 is obsessed with adding St. Vincent (musician) and Cara Delevingneto each others' infoboxes as partners. He has previously been blocked for edit warring over it, does not hear the discussion on the talk pages and was blocked for socking to add the info. (See Talk:St._Vincent_(musician), Talk:Cara_Delevingne
 * Upon being reverted for changing a dated statement about the relationship to a "current" claim (see below), I left a note on the talk page about it at 18:42, 30 July 2016. "Summer0910" (note the similarity of the user name to mine) was created specifically to add the relationships to the infoboxes. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 03:53, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Adding 71.48.38.81 for the "currently" change during one of Dean1997's blocks and Abababrocks32 for another change to "currently". - Sum mer PhD v2.0 03:53, 4 August 2016 (UTC)


 * - Please, compare those three accounts.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  10:49, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
