counting Professional Power as a Pro-Beijing political party, but removing it from Pro-Beijing camp (Hong Kong) and Template:Hong Kong political parties, as seen from and ( plus ). in addition, the editing styles of Lmmnhn and FumiHayashi are highly similar, as they like to revert chunk of user edits without proper explanation.

Not familiar with these users, or this topic area. But just within few mins found a smoking gun: Lmmnhn uploads three cropped images to Commons on 15 May 2021 between 07:28 and 07:34: File:Yoshihide Suga 20200916 (cropped).jpg, File:Yukio Edano In front of Tenjin Twin Building (2020.10.18) (cropped).jpg, File:Yuichiro Tamaki IMG 5649-1 20160903 (cropped).jpg. Between 07:30 and 07:35 FumiHayashi replaces the existing images on 2021 Japanese general election with these uploaded by Lmmnhn. – NJD-DE (talk) 01:52, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Unfortunately nothing to request a check here on, but agree with the evidence provided that this is probably 'proven' and most definitely too coincidental timestamp wise. sock, tagged master. Closing.  The SandDoctor  Talk 17:49, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Not sure about this one, but recently, they've been recreating several articles created by the puppeteer, Kowloon North-east (1995 constituency), Kowloon South-east (1995 constituency), and Hong Kong Island South (1995 constituency), as well as several others. I can't see the deleted articles, but if memory serves me, they might be similar in style. But due to the long term nature of both the puppeteer and their other sock, user:FumiHayashi, I thought it was worth taking a look.  Onel 5969  TT me 16:24, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

 * The deleted versions of those pages were just redirects. The master is stale, but comparing against the blocked sock, the two users each have stable geolocations, each in very different parts of the world. Closing without further action.  Girth Summit  (blether)  15:26, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

counting Localist camp as non-unified groups, as seen from and. in addition, the editing styles of Lmmnhn and Emanuelamianstrolski are highly similar, as they like to create Hong Kong politics articles (e.g. 2023 Hong Kong electoral changes, Results breakdown of the 2019 Hong Kong local elections, and etc.) UU (talk) 11:43, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

 * CU is stale, and I'm normally not a fan of resurrecting old SPIs, but there is enough here looking through the edits that I'm comfortable blocking. Tagging as suspected. . TonyBallioni (talk) 01:52, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Guotaian's editing patterns are reminiscent of Lmmnhn's and their socks'.
 * Focus on Hong Kong politics
 * Rapid bursts of edits in a single day
 * Unsourced additions and removals of content
 * Does not often write edit summaries
 * And when edit summaries are written, they usually justify the edit by citing original analyses
 * Overly concerned with political ideologies and positions to the point of giving their own analyses in edit summaries
 * Guotaian was created a few months after another sock of Lmmnhn was banned and Guotaian immediately begun editing without any newbie issues or behaviours
