of, etc., to Bianca Ryan and peripheral articles;   of same to Tiffany Evans and peripheral articles. Puppet master, Sock 1 and IP1 are blocked as a result; request to block the remainder is pending. Puppet master seems to make good-faith edits but treats Wiki like a fan site, and ignored all exhortations to read and follow policy until Farell01 was blocked; Sock1 then that there was an issue, and made the conscious decision to ignore it, creating at least one new account and using at least one new IP to continue the pattern. — ATinySliver / ATalkPage &#128406; 21:16, 7 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Further checking of Tiffany Evans shows that, while the article is a mess of OR and PROMO, the majority has been added by what appears to be unrelated editors. — ATinySliver / ATalkPage &#128406; 22:23, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Block evasion: continued introduction of OR to Tiffany Evans. Identical pattern, including tendency to write in sentence fragments. — ATinySliver / ATalkPage &#128406; 20:41, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Prolific editor using Name[number]-style usernames and IPs from Croatia or immediate environs. Edits have never included a reliable source and, judging by this, never will. User is fond of articles for female singers and singing groups, with particular emphasis on Tiffany Evans, Bianca Ryan, Nina Sky, Wonder Girls and/or related articles. Writes in fansite style, often in sentence fragments. Every time I revert per WP:DENY, the user returns with a different name and/or IP. — ATinySliver / ATalkPage &#128406; 22:02, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  23:14, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
