Suspected sockpuppets

 * ( original case name)

Seeming WP:DUCK sock for HONTERM9, based on username and topic choice. Protegosaurus has already been checkuser blocked and globally locked without specifying the master, but I thought it was worth adding anyway at it clearly them, see nearly identical edits to Baryonyx HONTERM9 Protegosaurus Hemiauchenia (talk) 20:47, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * isn't likely to be the oldest account? Hemiauchenia (talk) 18:08, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Same range, obviously related: . I'll move, extend the block on HONTERMX, block the unblocked ones, and request locks. --Blablubbs (talk) 21:23, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * @Hemiauchenia: Yeah, I noticed that one – I think it's very much possible, but the account has been abandoned for a while, and I can't offer technical confirmation, so I erred on the side of caution and left it aside. If someone wants to block and move, I'm fine with that. --Blablubbs (talk) 18:15, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
Same sort of incoherent english and disruptive editing in the paleontology topic area as previous socks. Some targets are the same as previous socks, like changing the taxbox range of Carcharodontosaurus Spino Protegosaurus Hemiauchenia (talk) 17:49, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
Behavioural overlap:
 * The two socks made unusual edits to their sandbox: 1, 2
 * Targetting redirects, notably those that are names of taxa: 3, 4, 5
 * Overlaps in pages about taxa: 6, 7, 8

Note that BEAR GORILLA is already CU blocked. —*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 11:52, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
