All listed socks have been blocked indefinitely already, but this IP may need to be blocked. Want to see if there are any other sleepers hanging around as well.

This user continues to return with edits only to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (season 1) and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (season 2) and they always append their user names with "2015". Don't know if you would consider this user the master, but they are all the same. Favre1fan93 (talk) 03:16, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

The above listed socks are ✅ to each other and and. is. I'll block and tag in a sec. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 08:49, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks . I don't know if you can or did, but if the IP could be blocked as well, that would probably solve this a bit. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:33, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Exact same edits (and username style) as LadyGaga2015 (and their socks). Their edits were at Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (season 3). - Favre1fan93 (talk) 22:14, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Cyberduck icon.png It looks like a duck to me - Ignore the master for a moment and compare this user's contribs to the other confirmed socks from the archive. The only edits are to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. cast lists, replacing cast members with bogus wikilinks. The master never edited those articles, but all of the socks have. Compare this user's with these  confirmed socks' edits. The username similarity (appending "2015" to every account) is also a giveaway. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 16:03, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is more the socks than the master to compare to. But since LadyGaga2015 was the earliest account, that's considered the master and where the discussion is held. But yeah, ignoring the master's account, they are the same. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:08, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * That's right. To be honest I can't tell from the archive what connects LadyGaga2015 to the other accounts, other than the username similarity. Maybe checkuser results, but I don't have access. All of the others are clearly one user. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 16:22, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I do believe it was the checkuser results from the original investigation. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:32, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  09:55, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Exact same user name format as Lady themselves, as well as some of their socks (there even was simply an "AgentsOfShieldFan" previously). This user edited Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which Lady and their socks also previously edited. There's probably some other sleepers as well that I have not come across, so best to look for those too. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:07, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
