Two brand-new users, only edits from both of them are to Draft:Oman Aviation Group and related walled-garden articles. Similar user names. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:58, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

has requested an unblock on his talk page stating the the password to the prior account was lost. Since there is no evidence of actual abuse and the explanation seems plausible, I would be inclined to grant this request, and then mark the accounts as alternates.

 * Just unblock either of them already. As a friend, I can confirm that they are the same person, but the owner indeed lost his password to the former. FlexKord (talk) 20:06, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

 * ...but I'm not sure if they are directly related to the first group outside of the technical overlap. . -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:16, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
 * The main evidence brought fourth and in focus here is the fact that both blocked users (both master and sock) had contributions and deleted contributions relating to the creation of Draft:Oman Aviation Group. None of the four accounts that were discovered by Ponyo in the same network range and with the technical similarities (user agent data) had any evidence of this in their contributions, so I'm going to assert that there isn't enough evidence to block these accounts as being sock puppet users of the master (or controlled by the same person), and I'm going to set this case as 'closed'.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   07:06, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

FlexKord has popped up immediately after the master and the sock are blocked, and is only editing in the same articles as the previous two accounts (or creating talk pages). Quack, quack. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:34, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' Thanks. I was about to make this myself, and am in the process of deleting all of their edits. Sam away Sam away Sam away (talk) 20:36, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

 * I have blocked FlexKord, but behaviorally, I don't believe FlexKord is related to Fth55431. Instead the following accounts appear to be behaviorally connected, unrelated to Fth55431:
 * FlexKord's edits are deliberately malicious, and a brand new account, Sam away Sam away Sam away, immediately begins reverting their edits. Sam ich bin vandalized as well. A clear case of good hand, bad hand. There are a few other quirks that I won't mention per WP:BEANS. Mz7 (talk) 20:54, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I've blocked all three accounts I listed above as sockpuppets of each other. Mz7 (talk) 21:02, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
