 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

see User talk:Loriendrew. One account made a comment while under a different user, even claiming to not be a puppet. Both users making same edits (removing a space before sentences). &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(ring-ring)  01:07, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I gave Woman a good-faith test edit warning for an edit that revoved spacing inappropriately. That user left a comment for me to which I replied. This was followed by Finalpoint replying claiming they were not a puppet. I found this very strange as no accusations were made about socking. Looking at the edits, both users were applying the same edits. While most were legit, a number went againt the MoS which were subsequently repaired, specifically removal of spacing before a sentence such that there is no space after a punctuation.-- &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(ring-ring)  10:15, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Is there anything WP:ILLEGIT in their edits? Explain, please.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  08:03, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, he said "Im not a puppet I'm wommenspresstoday" . So, he is not hiding that he's using two accounts. As I understand, there is nothing WP:ILLEGIT in their edits. I am going to give him advice to fully disclose the connection at the user page and to follow: WP:SOCK.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  12:39, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I think that's a good plan of action. I'll be closing this case now. Mike V • Talk 16:25, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
