Similar messing with infoboxes/article header. Not the typical editing pattern but it is disruptive nonetheless... (note: originally filed at wrong username) RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:33, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Blocked the quacker. Not sure there's any need for CU. Favonian (talk) 11:17, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I took a look - they are very to the previous batch of socks. There are a couple of other accounts on the same range that might be them, but the editing patterns don't match so I'll leave them alone for now - come back if any more appear in their area of interest. Requesting lock, closing.   Girth Summit  (blether)  13:22, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Elföemdşfldm1092 is confirmed to Gallipoli18811915. I'm not sure if we've got a complete chain to call them confirmed all the way back to KızılBörü1071 so I'll just tag as proven. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:14, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

The usual unexplained changes of cited figures, this time at Siege of Kut: Europe1683 diff, Thewarlord12250 diff, Emrekut12345 diff. For comparison: blocked sock diff.

I believe Gallipoli12345 is also part of this as they edited the same article, and a similarly named sock (Gallipoli2015) was blocked on 21 April 2022.

Given the sheer number of socks requesting CU to check for sleepers.

Article might need protection again as sock fest started right on time a few days after a 1-year protection ended. – NJD-DE (talk) 22:21, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Was just glancing at the edit history of one of the other usual targets: Siege of Plevna. Found two more there. Usual usernames, usual edits. – NJD-DE (talk) 22:29, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Another one at the Kut article: Lazistan12345. – NJD-DE (talk) 22:48, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
