Dhillonguys stopped editing at the end of 2017, Malwainoz was created in January 2018. Both have edited the same topic area - (both also having uploaded copyvio images). The fields in the images were filled almost identically. It seems as if the Dhillonguys account was abandoned to avoid scrutiny over the copyright violation uploads. It is not immediately clear whether the user is using additional accounts to do the same behaviour. Jon Kolbert (talk) 21:39, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Closing: they never edited at the same time, and this is an area where a lot of copyvios happen from users that may not be related. Even if it was, its an arguable legitimate use of a second account as a clean start, and its been long enough that I don't think many admins would feel comfortable blocking on SOCK grounds. The solution here is to watch the users uploads. If they upload any new copyrighted files, let me know and I'll block on those grounds. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:45, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
