Recently created, only substantial edit was to "keep" an article nominated for deletion, originally created by its master, Historiador1923. It's obvious Hortencia1 is Historiador's sockpuppet, because they both post (badly) Google-translated stuff on Wikipedia. A checkuser would, anyway, dissipate any uncertainty.

 * Update: In response to Hortencia1's claim to be a student of art at the Universidad de Chile, that's not true. I have provided some links that prove there is no student named Hortencia (or, rather, properly written HortenSia) studying art in the aforementioned university: classes of 2014, 2013, 2012... and so on. Historiador is deliberately lying and disrupting the project; they have also been uploading copyvios on Commons  (both accounts blocked there). Diego Grez (talk) 00:17, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

The suspected sock put this on their talk page (both from an IP and their account): ""Good afternoon, I am a college student. I study art at the University of Chile and there I learned a lot about many artists, and this is why I know about the poet and painter Eugenio Cruz Vargas. I have no connection with Historiador1923, please clarify this situation. I've been uploading some pictures to commons, but only those in test mode, and I'm still getting to know the policies of wikipedia. Hope your understanding"" The alibi can be verified as that IP is from Chile. MrScorch6200 (talk &#124; ctrb) 21:06, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

 * claims not to have any knowledge of, however their account was created on the same IP and device as Historiador1923, and their only edit outside of user space was to vote "keep" in an AfD for one of Historiador1923's articles. The accounts are ✅. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:52, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
