Suspected sockpuppets
I'm sure these 1 edit accounts, who all showed up to vote "Delete" on Articles for deletion/Frida Torresblanco, are connected. The reason why I'm filing this case is not because of these 3 sockpuppets but their comments demonstrate a familiarity with Wikipedia although not to the degree that they cite policy guidelines. But I'm concerned that this is an existing editor logged out who is commenting which, in the AFD world, needs to be discouraged. That's why even though these sockpuppets are obvious, I want to make sure there isn't a current editor who has turned to creating sockpuppets to participate in deletion discussions. Thanks for checking. Liz Read! Talk! 23:07, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

 * The CU data here is a bit unusual. and  are unambiguously ✅ to one another, and  is  enough to them for me to have no doubt of the connection given the pattern of behaviour. They are operating out of some slightly peculiar IPs, and I do see a number of other editors on those IPs, including some who are using the same user agent - they are therefore ✅. However, looking at the editing of those accounts, I'm not seeing anything in the behaviour to tie them to these three - they haven't been involved with the AfD discussion, they haven't edited the article itself. This could easily be a case of shared devices, or a shared internet connection and people who happen to edit from the same type of device - in short, based purely on technical similarities which may be coincidental, I'm not confident enough to take any action other than to block these three accounts.
