 * Suspected sockpuppets

Looks like we got a quacker. Two days after Lil Lez was blocked, 808-Thug pops up. Lil Lez's first edit was creating their userpage. 808-Thug's first edit was the exact same first edit on their userpage. —  Σ  xplicit 03:21, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Behavioral evidence suggest that may be back. Although YesNoJoe isn't making any page moves as Lil Lez did, they are now making cut and paste moves (which have all been reverted). The user is also editing similar articles that Lil Lez edited before (for example, articles related to PlayStation, Twista related articles and music articles, as well as making several useless redirects as Lil Lez has made). I've requested checkuser to confirm the identity, find possible sleepers and possibly get an IP block here. —  Σ  xplicit 03:21, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Actually, now I know this is Lil Lez. An IP block would still be nice, though. —  Σ  xplicit 04:17, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Yup, identical edit modes. I've gone ahead and indef'ed this account as WP:DUCK. Lil Lez's behavior pattern is to ignore talk-page engagement, so either this block will provoke a response or she'll ignore it, lie low for a few days, then reappear with a new account. She edits many diverse pages rapidly rather than always returning to same page each time, so hard to catch until we have many page-moves and other bad edits to clean up behind. Blocking underlying IP would be huge help. DMacks (talk) 04:29, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Requested by —  Σ  xplicit 04:01, 10 August 2009 (UTC) to determine if blocking an underlying IP or range is feasible and to check for sleepers. MuZemike 04:46, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
