There seems to be a group of tag-team editors with the same agenda surrounding a variety of pages since I posted Ashkenazi Jewish intelligence at AfD: Articles for deletion/Ashkenazi Jewish intelligence (2nd nomination). While an ANI was filed: Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents, it seems clear to me that this is a blatant case of WP:SOCK violation. I understand that CU will not verify IPs, but I include these for completeness. jps (talk) 18:27, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

 * - there is definitely something fishy going on in that page's history (was looking at this myself earlier). Could be socking, could be meat/canvassing, could be a bunch of unrelated people with strong opinions on the topic. Let's see what we CU can tell us.

 * I've already blocked and tagged User:GreenTeaExtracts, User:Dopamineagonist, and User:Realityistoblame as ✅ socks in response to Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents (permalink). Looking at the other users now to determine if I need to run checks. GorillaWarfare (talk) 19:21, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
 * . running checks on Vickerus and General Iroh, the Dragon of the West. Though both are generally in agreement with GreenTeaExtracts' opinions on this particular AfD, and could believably have been canvassed to the AfD, the behavioral evidence is not strong enough for me to run a check. Those two editors have been around since March 2020 and November 2019, much before this spate of accounts showed up to sock on the AfD. It seems pretty unlikely that GTE was playing the long game by creating those accounts months ago, editing quite independently with them, and then showing up only now to use them in a dispute.

 * blocked the IPs as well, they write very similarly to GreenTeaExtracts and have a very strong behavioral overlap. Closing. GeneralNotability (talk) 13:30, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
