I started one as well but I mistakenly thought Marco Jovani was actually the older account: Sockpuppet investigations/Marco Jovani Justeditingtoday (talk) 13:48, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

All three editors add the same text with a link to the same blog which provides PDFs of books.

Michel Sher - 1 and 2

Marco Jovani - 1, 2, 3, and 4

Michell Dubua - 1 and this one actually signed the wrong name to a comment here as well as threatened to bring an army of socks and/or meatpuppets to these article in the coming week here.

User:Marco Jovani worked on a few libellous wikinews articles last month (eg. https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Terrorist_attack_on_the_church_in_Hobart_city._The_reason_is_Nongoloza_cult) and was blocked as a Sher sock at the start of April. New user User:Jeremi AI joined Wikipedia today to create an article on the Nongoloza cult, making the same unsourced (and possibly libellous) claim about the identity of the leader of this cult.

Both Sher and Jeremi use quote tags and angle quotes (1, 2). McGeddon (talk) 17:21, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

 * This may be of limited use, given cross-wiki limitations of checkusers, but fwiw there have also been a number of Nongoloza-related articles submitted at en.wn, involving a number of different user accounts and one exposed IP; you can see the list of accounts at n:WN:AAA, two of which I see in the archive here were identified as socks. --Pi zero (talk) 18:55, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
