I am reporting Jesien1 as a sock account of Judamens; the former account was open before the latter. Apart from both accounts editing identical pages, Judamens removed the speedy deletion tag from the Focus FM (Ghana) article created by Jesien1. I don't believe this is a coincidence.

 * , though I will note that the data is also not inconsistent with two people working together, perhaps roommates, friends, or colleagues. They are definitely either the same person or working together though. Mz7 (talk) 22:40, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Due to similar edit summary writing style, e.g., as well as the shared use of the "minor edit" checkbox for all edits, as well as the clear editing interest overlap, I'm going to block Judamens indefinitely and Jesien1 for 1 week. Closing. Mz7 (talk) 22:49, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Two or so hours after I reported Jesien1 and Judamens for sock puppetry, 71.172.196.63 edited my talk page. In their edit summary, they said "Why is this user policing other people’s accounts?? Several accounts will be made to take down yours)". 71.172.196.63 not only threatens to take down my account but also states his desires to engage in sock puppetry. Two days later, 208.196.3.108 left this note on my talk page, insulting me and saying a "report has been filed against me". I traced the IP address 208.196.3.108 to Brooklyn, New York, the birthplace of DJ Nu Kidd. I suspect 208.196.3.108 is probably the subject himself or a close affiliate. There's definitely meat puppetry going on here.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 11:13, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Update: 208.196.3.108 left another note on my talk page. The nature of the message confirms they are meat puppets. I'd like to file a report at WP:ANI but will patiently wait for the outcome of this investigation. 71.172.196.63 left this note on my talk page.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk?

 * Hi Versace1608, sorry about the harassment here. Your report was timely, but unfortunately now the IPs have not edited in sufficiently long that there is no administrative action we can take. Please feel free to file another report if similar edits resume. Best, Kevin ( aka L235 · t · c) 18:08, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

 * . Jesien1 and Knustboy have directly intersected on an IP, but seem to consistently use different devices. That and other technical evidence is also highly suggestive of meatpuppetry rather than simple socking. Kevin ( aka L235 · t · c) 20:24, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Likely + overlap in interests = good enough. This appears to be the second time that Jesien1 has engaged in meatpuppetry (the archives have a similar case a few months ago), so I'm not feeling the AGF here. Both accounts . GeneralNotability (talk) 01:50, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
