Suspected sockpuppets
These accounts seem to be from one single editor, as the edits are of the same nature as well as following the same pattern. A quick view on their talkpages show their related history of edit warring and disruptive editing across other music biographies and discography-related topics. After I extensivley rewrote the Bebe Rexha discography article, the user started to revert me with his IP, continuing with his account , with both through mobile edits. The following day, he came with another account to revert, also with the same insulting manner and inappropriate terms, including "What the HELL", "stop acting crazy" and "grow up". However, my impression is that these accounts have a similar English writing and tone. The Rita Ora discography article is another example to recognize the similarities. He again reverted through mobile like @MikaelEmanuelsson, with a similar reasoning, writing and tone. Same pattern here: Iaof2017 (talk) 14:57, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

 * I don't see anything here that would merit a CU investigation or blocks. Helptottt and Jakubik.v have been editing since 2013 and 2016 respectively and have thousands of edits. The standard of evidence needed to demonstrate that a tenured user is abusing multiple accounts is high. The three accounts overlap on some pages, but that's unsurprising considering that they have considerable edit counts and share an interest in pop music. The overlap is on high-profile articles about popular musicians, rather than obscure pages, which would be stronger grounds for suspicion. Looking at the timecards, it's obvious, at least, that Helptottt does not fit with the other two accounts. There are other differences. MikaelEmanuelsson often edits from the Android app, Helptottt uses the mobile web editor, and Jakubik.v uses the source editor. Helptottt has edited articles about Slavic topics while the others stick to Western pop music.That said,  discloses on his userpage that he lives in Spain. The IP geolocates to Spain and behaviourally seems likely to be the same person. I have left MikaelEmanuelsson a notice about logged-out editing. Closing. The content dispute should be dealt with through other venues. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 06:20, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
