It appears there are more accounts active on this sock. Account Movvver is showing a similar editing pattern to the pre-established pattern of the sock. For instance, an interest in similar types of edits around the Roly Poly Oly article such as which is similar to NolaPola's edit of, and anonIP 76.110.65.144's edit here  which was originally created by Endingsesame. There is also strong editing overlap with an interest in dated redirects such as Endingsesame's edit here, Anon editor 98.249.188.95's edit here , and anon editor 76.110.65.144 edit here. Additionally Movvver has placed an edit on Endingsesame's talk page about a dated article as well here. The editing history here also shows strong overlap between the accounts with edits by both anon IPs, Endingsesame, as well as the new Movvver account. Overall it appears that all of these accounts are related and likely sock evasion. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:08, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Adding additional anon IP account 98.249.196.7 that has similar editing pattern. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 21:44, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Just for completeness I'm adding in already blocked account Gromitetoes which appears to be from the same group based upon editing pattern. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 23:44, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

To assist in tracking this all down it appears that several of the accounts and anon IP's have had editing history related to this deleted article as well: Darwin Thornberry. I can't see the logs, but I see it mentioned on several of their talk pages with warnings relating to it as seen in these diffs:    ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 23:55, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

AnonIP 98.249.196.7 is now playing with creating PRODs with false dates:. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:16, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Found another old one that is linked here, and adding it in for completeness and help tracking: Sandwich Golf Express ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 17:19, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Another AnonIP part of same group added: 76.110.58.134  ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 17:29, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Apparently based upon recent editing needs to be blocked from editing userpage as well. Sample diffs (from many):     Perhaps it is also a good opportunity to check for sleepers since he is active again. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 00:26, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

 * For starters, per the privacy policy, I will not publicly link a named account to an IP address. Secondly, looking at the archives this IP does not appear to be one that is in Endingsesame's normal range. Will you please provide some evidence (via diffs) to support your accusation? Thanks, Tiptoety  talk 05:43, 12 April 2012 (UTC)


 * All edits are to article "favourites" of endingsesame see . Of particular interest are these  (an edit to a previous sock of endingsesame's talk page noting that it is a sock.  This was a fairly standard practice by this sockmaster).  Edits to pages of dates in April is another with edits like this, as well as a fascination with Timberwolf with edits like this .  You will have to look at the previous deleted contributions on that Timerberwolf to see the overlap as they have been deleted multiple times in previous incarnations .  The geographic overlap with previous anon IPs the sock has used also is satisfies WP:DUCK. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 14:49, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

This sock's IP had been blocked for one year, and recently became unblocked. This was after it had been blocked for 3 months and got re-blocked due to continued disruptive editing. After the 1 year hiatus, the sock is back to the same editing patterns again from this IP.

Example diffs:

Timberwolf: Endingsesame, this IP

List of Gullah Gullah episodes: Endingsesame, this IP.

Likely time to check for sleepers again as well. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 14:37, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

I wanna be blocked for two weeks. 76.110.65.48 (talk) 17:15, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

A comparasion to User:Ssjhowarthisawesome shows the same interests: numbers (eg: spelling out Fourty-three created by Ssj vs. Ninty-two by Reso), colors (especially Crayola colors), Nickelodeon shows (like Blue's Clues), pop music (like Budapest (song)), and even shopping malls in New Jersey. -- Tavix ( talk ) 23:29, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
