Single-purpose account. Appearing suddenly and joining in an active (but slow-motion) edit-war means 捏造撃破戦線 is almost certainly someone's sock, and Historiographer had made the same claim shortly before. The username 捏造撃破戦線 implies the user not only has a POV agenda but knows he is continuing an argument with a rival agenda. Additionally, the account was created in January, after Historiographer's last edit in November, but held off editing until just over a week after Historiographer officially announced his not-so-very-genuine retirement, and stopped editing not long before Historiographer came back. My main concern is that someone who socks once and gets away with it is liable to sock again. The dates also mean 捏造撃破戦線 was a sleeper of Historiographer (or whoever the sockmaster is) for some three months, which raises the possibility of other sleepers is why I'm requesting CU.
