This stems from a COIN issue at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Rabiah. The users in question are all adding questionable material to the article that is remarkably similar. Two of these Rawishpaul and Rptheanonymous have already been blocked as socks and spawned an ANI Thread where users have said that Films001 and Cinema777 may be related. We should run a checkuser and make sense of this all, blocking the socks and adding relative masters and sock descriptions. 2Joules (talk) 05:04, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

I can't speak to the others but, aside from the style similarities in their names, Films001 and Cinema777 have an interesting range of articles at which their contributions intersect and are similar. They even both stopped editing on the day that Films001 was blocked. It's also worth noting that Joeltmpayne is the most recent editor. is the oldest listed. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 07:42, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
 * The interesting range of intersection between Films001 and Cinema777 is Robert Rabiah. Not a single edit between them that is unrelated to him. Group 2 names all share Rawish Pauls initials. Rptheanonymous and 1saint rp. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:32, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

 * I have already blocked several of these accounts (Rawishpaul, Rptheanonymous and Joeltmpayne) prior to encountering this investigation. Off-wiki evidence suggests that Rawishpaul at least has been paid to edit the Robert Rabiah article. Yunshui 雲 水 08:05, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Closing without prejudice with no action due to the case being stale. --Deskana (talk) 09:36, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
