Block evasion. Elchezinazo was primarily interested in two subjects: Three Days Grace and Skillet. Creating links and articles that did not belong. Elchezinazo got blocked for not explaining the activity or stopping when reasons were given. 152.0.98.174 reverted those redirects and continued to the work.

Edit history, particularly on Skillet (band) articles. Adding of non-notable recordings and addition of unsourced singles. No edit summaries even when asked (and in Chezy268, requested a second time). Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:14, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, just noticed that "Chez" is key to both user names. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:16, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

Elchezinazo was blocked in April 2018 for disruptive editing, especially in the topic of Slipknot (band) and similar bands. Two weeks after Elchezinazo was blocked, Dominican IP Special:Contributions/152.0.98.174 restored a bunch of work by Elchezinazo. Other Dominican IPs, Special:Contributions/179.52.36.116 and Special:Contributions/179.52.62.114, were doing the same thing, proving the location.

Dominican IP Special:Contributions/2001:1308:2D5D:3B00:7CD8:B829:F6E1:67A6 created the article Infinito (TV channel), which was developed over several months by the Dominican ranges Special:Contributions/2001:1308:2C38:3000:0:0:0:0/64 and Special:Contributions/2001:1308:2D5D:3B00:0:0:0:0/64, the Dominican static IPs Special:Contributions/179.53.47.34 and Special:Contributions/186.149.133.80, and by Elfederico2005. IP 179.53.47.34 was also interested in Barry White, changing the dates in the same manner as Dominican IP Special:Contributions/2001:1308:2D5D:3B00:3477:8060:608A:37D0. IP 186.149.133.80 was interested in Infinito (TV channel) and also Slipknot topics. Carlitosporro2005 alternated with Dominican IP Special:Contributions/2001:1308:2CDA:200:E4E0:F4F:1D25:5CD in editing the article Iowa (album) with only a few minutes separating. That article saw a range of Elchezinazo socks trying to change the dates, starting with Special:Contributions/2001:1308:2D5D:3B00:6450:7ECF:332E:6941 in September, continuing with 186.149.133.80 and then Elfederico2005 and Carlitosporro2005 in November. 186.149.133.80 and Carlitosporro2005 continued edit warring over dates in December.

CarlosGoico2005 is listed because of the close interaction with Elfederico2005 and Dominican IPs 2001:1308:2D5D:3B00:0:0:0:0/64 and 186.149.133.80 in developing the article TruTV (Latin American TV channel), in some cases editing within minutes of each other. Note that CarlosGoico2005 included Federico and Porro among his names.

The intersection of topics is revealing. Elfederico2005 was interested in Slipknot, TV channels, and Ashlee Simpson. Carlitosporro2005 was interested in Slipknot and Ashlee Simpson. Dominican IP Special:Contributions/179.52.53.28 did the same things on the Ashlee Simpson topics: mess with dates.

Federicogoico2006 is listed even though it is stale. The similarity in name and area of interest is defining, especially the changing of Slipknot dates.

 * These are confirmed to each other These are stale but I'd put them in the likely category to the first group based on naming and behavior  Besides those, whether this is the master is up in the air given it's been as long as it has. I'll block shortly. No comment on IPs. Izno (talk) 21:02, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

Obvious new sock CarlosMarzo2005 with similar naming style and the same unique fingerprint of interests in Barry White, Stone Sour and Slipknot music. CarlosMarzo2005 quickly started edit-warring at the same articles to restore previous sock text.

Behaviour is sufficient. No need for CU. Binksternet (talk) 00:27, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Continuation of the same edit-warring behavior with a new username and Dominican IPs.

 * The account and one IP are already blocked. The other IP is stale. There is no explanation why the sleepers check is necessary (see ). Closing.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  00:53, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
