Hadji87 was blocked for continually editing the same pages while logged in and logged out as an IP (I had categorized some of the earlier IPs at Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Hadji87. Hadji87 (and his IP socks) tend to spend a lot of time editing 2017 in British music charts, Now That's What I Call Music! discography and its albums (the most recent ones are Now That's What I Call Music! 98 (UK series) and Now That's What I Call Music! 97 (UK series)), and current hit songs such as Anywhere (Rita Ora song). He often tries to create the articles before they are actual hits, and they end up getting redirected. He will revert the redirect as either Hadji87 or an IP, which is what usually gets him in trouble. Because the songs often do become hits or because he is creating the articles based upon pre-published info, they do end up remaining. Here are some diffs to back up the similar editing habits of Hadji87 and the latest IP (109.157.190.66). Thank you. Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 04:48, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

 * - Given that Hadji87 was originally blocked for disruptive editing from 109.157.190.66, . Please reset the the block against Hadji87 to expire one month from today. Please also block temporarily. The other IP's have been inactive long enough that no action is necessary. Sir Sputnik (talk) 18:01, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
 * ✅, although I extended the block to three months from today, not one month. ~ Rob 13 Talk 19:17, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

Same overlapping interests, rapid editing style to Now! articles, ignoring editors inquiries and disruptive reverting and restoring AFD'd Now! articles. The refusal to actually discuss or respond to a single concern is pretty clearly a characteristic of this master. CHRISSY MAD ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  14:54, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Please block the /64 range for a good amount of time (~2 month at least, based on persistent disruption and use of the range over many months). The range is 2A02:C7D:9E23:3000::/64 (block). Thanks. Kevin ( aka L235 ·&#32; t ·&#32; c) 21:15, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Given that they were just off a six month block, I've blocked for another six months. Huon (talk) 21:28, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
