We just had a lengthy ANI thread where several editors tried to explain to Informed analysis that he needs to use the talk page and stop edit warring. Now, I see this IP is back edit-warring on Genesis (band) using very similar edit summaries and behaviour to Informed analysis. It looks like a duck to me.

 * The IP certainly looks like Informed, but at this point, they haven't edited in a couple of weeks, so not much point in doing anything. Closing with no action taken. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:35, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Original account CU blocked. This account has a very similar username and the same interests - Hollywood actors and musicians, including Aerosmith and Bryan Adams. Same preoccupation with which songs or films are included in lead sections - see here and here for one example. Larry Hockett (Talk) 03:06, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Blocked and tagged the sock. I was on the fence as to whether to tag the master. I'll leave that up to the clerk who archives this. Closing. Bbb23 (talk) 13:49, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Just for the record, I blocked for 72 hours yesterday, and behavioural evidence suggests this is a sockpuppet of Informed analysis. This includes adding Canadian chart statistics, verbose edit summaries about the same and suggestions of ownership issues. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  10:52, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
