 * I checked out of concern there may be some imitating going on, troll account, etc. The two accounts are ✅ to one another, but I'll let a clerk or patrolling admin decide what to do in terms of blocks. . TonyBallioni (talk) 16:50, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Kozak4512 is technically a newer account than Rick4512, but I'm treating it as the master because it has been more active lately. I've indeffed the sock with a tag and blocked the master for 2 weeks for the sockpuppetry and edit-warring. GABgab 01:06, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Kozak ran sockpuppets last year (see previous sockpuppet investigation). The editor appears to be running more sockpuppets this year. Here is Kozak using erroneous claims about "consensus"on one page and here are the IP socks making the same edit with a similar edit summary. The editor engaged in a similar pattern last year, see this from the Stacey Abrams page. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 23:29, 7 December 2020 (UTC) Snooganssnoogans (talk) 23:29, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
