Most of these users have been blocked already, but there appear to be a couple (User:HumbleHumble1212, User:2.26.145.28, User:2.28.2.86, User:95.150.163.39, User:95.150.163.53) that are not—and pattern of editing is ongoing. (I understand that IP blocks/rangeblocks may not be necessary if account is not actively being used to vandalize.)

There does not appear to be a WP:SPI subpage dedicated to this yet, and it might be worthwhile to collect these in one place and apply sockpuppet tags consistently to these accounts (some, like User:TheYoukai were not tagged as related, but were blocked for general vandalism). This log entry relating to User:Michael Johnson123111 implies that there was checkuser involvement at some point.

 * HumbleHumble1212 is ✅ to some accounts that are still fresh and is now blocked. In the future, you don't need to report a bunch of already-blocked sock puppets.  Just list the ones that aren't blocked. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:37, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
