 * CU-blocked the little vandal; it was a perfect match. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 01:07, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

First edits were trying to edit User:Dragonlover21, a CU-confirmed KCKWB sock. Similar "cutesy" behavior to past socks and their interest in WikiFauna is similar to Dragonlover. No idea why they showed up on my talk page, since I don't believe I've interacted with these socks. GeneralNotability (talk) 15:01, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Added CompassOwl and SlvrHwk, as both have also used a particular userbox that one of the past socks requested.

 * - self-endorsing to compare the three suspected socks to each other + for a sleeper check. All known KCKWB socks are stale. I am fairly confident from a behavioral standpoint that CompassOwl and Tinka Hessenheffer are related to this group but am not confident that SlvrHawk is related.

 * Based on information in the CU log, combined with the abuse filter hit, I think it is that Tinka Hessenheffer is Kookie Cookie Knows What's Best. I think the evidence for CompassOwl and SlvrHwk is less compelling. I am assuming that the "particular userbox" mentioned is User:3125A/Userboxes/User loves books. CompassOwl (then under the username "Geekpotato24") requested a userbox on June 16  and added the books userbox shortly thereafter . It seems probable that they simply noticed the userbox because it was requested in an earlier thread on the same page. To remove doubt, I ran a check, and the results also indicate CompassOwl is ❌. SlvrHwk also seems improbable to me, and in fact they have been involved in creating userboxes themselves, which based on this master's contributions I'm not sure they are technically capable of—given their activity in userboxes, it's possible they found the books userbox on the same page as CompassOwl. I would block Tinka Hessenheffer, but take no action against CompassOwl and SlvrHwk. Mz7 (talk) 22:53, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , yeah, that was the userbox I was thinking of, and I admit the suspicion was a bit of a stretch - I missed that SlvrHwk was creating userboxes, so completely agree that they're not related. I was suspicious of CompassOwl/GeekPotato because of the aforementioned userbox and the fact that both went to Littlecat456 to ask for mentorship (not conclusive, but it was enough for me to be suspicious). Will take action per your recommendations. GeneralNotability (talk) 23:10, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Tinka Hessenheffer, closing. GeneralNotability (talk) 23:15, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
