Same pattern of disruptive editing (particularly editing TV station articles to add an inappropriate 'commercial-free television networks' category, bizarrely.) Note that similar username 'Kaylor2015' has also been blocked recently as a sock of Kaylor2012. Bonusballs (talk) 09:45, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

 * 1) 1...obvious (and a CU is needed to root out socks under the Kaylorxxxxnow naming pattern), #2 uses the initials of Kaylor and claims they're nine on their talk page, which would earn them a COPPA block for sure but their English suggests they are far from nine, and then two IP socks. As usual, making claims that Nick Jr. is going to dump the NickMom block, adding fantasy TV choices to List of programs broadcast by Nick Jr., along with various claims to Treehouse TV.

 * is ✅ as a sock.  is ✅ as a sock of  (Sockpuppet investigations/Djmex9205). Whether there is cross-over between these two groups will require a behavioural review of the two cases. I've blocked both IPs as they're being used solely for disruptive editing on a number of levels.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  23:31, 15 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I have made comparisons of accounts in the Kaylor2012 group with accounts in the Djmex9205 group. I have seen many overlaps of an account in one group with another account in the same group, but few overlaps between an account in one group with an account in the other group. It therefore seems highly unlikely that the two groups are the same person. Since that seems to have been the only outstanding point not already dealt with, I am closing the case.

First name=blatant (and incredibly bold) "". Current pattern is to add "A revival of the series is set for a 2017 launch." to various Treehouse TV and YTV show articles, and adding Category:Commercial-free television networks to networks which have plenty of commercial advertising.
