Seem to be making similar erroneous edits, such as, , , , and others.

This might simply be Deghop editing while logged out, but it seems to me that it's being done to avoid getting warned for making these sorts of changes. Jasper Deng (talk) 08:02, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' Yes 32.209.33.103 was me. But it is not a sockpuppet. Sometimes I forget to log in. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deghop (talk • contribs)
 * Considering some of Deghop and the IP's references to Force 13, I would hardly be surprised to learn they are one and the same. As was mentioned above as a possibility, the IP may very well be Deghop editing while logging out, regardless of whether it is deliberate. I can't think of any way of guessing at intent, though.

 * Notably, User:Deghop failed to answer the query about User:Deghop1617.--Jasper Deng (talk) 16:40, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I know that Deghop1617 was created first, but I don't think it should be treated as the main account when it comes to the blocks. The vast majority of edits come from the account without the numbers at the end. Master of Time   ( talk ) 23:42, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

 * The following accounts are ✅:
 * If the two account names weren’t so obvious, this would be easy. I would indefinitely block both accounts – and I may still do that. But I don’t understand why something so clear wasn't noticed. The accounts are behaviorally obvious. They often edited the same pages. They were both disruptive. Although Deghop1617 hasn’t been blocked as Deghop has, there are warnings all over Dehop1617's Talk page. Although the account stopped editing at the end of December 2016, the last message on their Talk page was a warning about a hoax article the account had created. In any event, the two accounts edited together for a chunk of time. As an aside, Deghop1617 is the master account. I will wait to hear from other editors, including, before taking action.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:36, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
 * All blocked (master for 7 days, IP for 2 months, sock indeff). Case closed.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  23:02, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Quack, just for the record. Degrinehopper1617 is the actual master here, as it predates Deghop1617. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 21:54, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

Using the transitive property: has previously been established to be this user, and in turn, Resolutionism [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:2017_Atlantic_hurricane_season&diff=804659737&oldid=804659694 seems to be this IP too]. Furthermore, their style of writing at Talk:2017 Atlantic hurricane season seems to match that of Degrinehopper1617. They've also edited the same page, although that evidence is much weaker.
