Suspected sockpuppets

 * ( original case name)

Both accounts have performed multiple rapid edits, mostly to Māori people, consisting largely of inserting images haphazardly through the page without regard to context or illustrative relevance. Edits from the two accounts are so similar as to be indistinguishable, with regard to both content and edit summaries.

Rotoruagirl's edits: 1, 2, 3 (and about 130 more in less than 72 hours)

Kaweraugirl1's edits: 1, 2, 3

Rotoruagirl was suspected of being the same person as a number of other accounts and IPs showing a pattern of unsourced information on New Zealand-related pages, especially Māori people, with edit summaries along the lines of "this is true information, I've done research". I find the similarities in those cases less compelling than this and have therefore decided not to include them, but I felt I should mention it for the sake of full disclosure. —VeryRarelyStable 09:24, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

 * - I've blocked Kaweraugirl1 without tags. Please see User talk:Rotoruagirl for a list of other socks. Please determine the oldest account, move this case accordingly, and tag. I'd use suspected for all. Bbb23 (talk) 13:00, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

 * I've moved this case to Hudosngrey who is the oldest account and is CU-blocked as a sock of Roturoagirl. I've tagged the accounts and also blocked for 6 months as it seems to have been used by the same editor for a long period of time. The other IP range is no longer active. Closing.
