Suspected sockpuppets

Three newly created accounts each show almost the exactly the same editing pattern: vandalizing the page Orange two times, and then disappearing, presumably by creating a new sockpuppet.

Kobe707 vandalized Orange on 17 April at [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Orange&diff=prev&oldid=775878592 16:51] and again at [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Orange&diff=prev&oldid=775886311 17:44]. The edits were reverted and warnings placed at User talk:Kobe707 by two different users.

Minutes later, at [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Orange&diff=prev&oldid=775887504 17:52] and [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Orange&diff=prev&oldid=775888311 17:58] Tom899999999 vandalized the same page, and received similar warnings from ClueBot and a third user.

Tr1055 then vandalized the page again, with what appears to be the warning copied from User talk:Tom899999999.

Note that Orange has been semi-protected following the last vandalism incident. Cnilep (talk) 00:24, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

 * I've blocked all three as vandals. Technically (CU) they look like socks, but they might also be a group of students. All are tagged. Materialscientist (talk) 00:49, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
