Suspected sockpuppets
This editor has been blocked by Diannaa by adding copyrighted content in articles. It appears that the editor is evading their block by going back to the same articles as before. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 15:25, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

...sorry to break it to you but I am a new user to this platform. Awakener4411 (talk) 15:28, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not convinced, editors who been blocked pretending they not the block editor end up being them. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 15:45, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

 * It's difficult to tell how many of the stylistic quirks are due to using the visual editor, so I didn't put too much emphasis on syntax, but there's too much stylistic overlap for this to be a coincidence. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 20:36, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Possible block evasion by Isaacsorry, who have a bad habit of going back to the same articles as before, especially articles related to Michael Jackson. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 02:00, 12 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Pinging other editors in this investigation since they deal with Isaacsorry before. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 02:07, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

Comparing two groups of edits, one by blocked sock Awakener4411, the other by Marlborozmoker, I see some critical overlap in style and content:
 * Awakener4411 wrote "Writers have regarded Dangerous as a return to Jackson's black sound roots..."
 * Marlborozmoker wrote "Noted by writers as a return to Jackson's black roots..."

At the Justin Bieber bio, Marlborozmoker added details about the hairstyle with wings, the same as Awakener4411.

Isaacsorry, Awakener4411 and Marlborozmoker all share the same diurnal editing pattern, with a quiet period from 0:00 to 8:00 UTC.

The interaction between the accounts shows the same fingerprint of interests. Isaacsorry and Marlborozmoker both fussed around with footballer bios, and they both fiddled with the Jheri curl page. This fingerprint points to block evasion. Binksternet (talk) 04:26, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

 * ✅ to User:Awakener4411, at least. I'll think about a range block if more socks show up, but, depending on how the network is set up, it seems likely to have too much collateral damage. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 06:34, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

Gullyshine2468's first edit was repeat the same very complex edit as blocked sock FreddieMcclair.

No need for CU because the behavior is a definitive match. Binksternet (talk) 13:13, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
