Evidence submitted by ElockidAlternate
I previously blocked two of this user's socks, and  at Developed country for edit warring. Mikanz008 by the name itself is related to the other Mikanz accounts. Mikanz has also been reinstating the same edits as Mikanz001 and Applesort. Cccr091 is reinstating the same edits as the other two socks but on a different page. After further looking at Mikanz008 and Cccr091, they've edited the page: Shocking Blue. blocked several socks on this page under a checkuser block. Both Mikanz008 and Cccr091 have edited those pages and all accounts for the most part have been marking all edits as minor. The last four seem to be related, but I'm not sure if they're are related to the Mikanz accounts since they have never edited articles like Developed country. Requesting CU for a sleeper check, seems like the last 4 accounts are socks based on CU blocks, as well as verification if the accounts are related or not, and also, if possible an IP block.

Looks like two separate groups that are related to each other. Each group is ✅ with respect to each other. Group 1: as well as some previously blocked accounts. Group 2: TN X Man 13:44, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

All accounts blocked indef and tagged. Additionally, the IP was autoblocked in the process of my blocks. Note, this IP has also been a CU block. I have extended the block to 3 months.  E lockid  ( Talk ) 18:59, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

A large group of accounts, including confirmed Mikanz009 sock Cccr091, are inserting a machine-translated section into various language versions of Shocking Blue about the group being racist and hating Japanese people. The listed accounts have participated in this and their edits are similar to ones made by Cccr091's SUL account here. Checkuser would be useful to check for other linked accounts, considering the number of usernames making these edits cross-wiki. (See report on Meta.) Jafeluv (talk) 13:11, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

SPA accounts editing the same pages (every new account was blocked as a sock) as the other SPAs/socks. Sleeper check would be nice.  E lockid (Alternate)  ( Talk )  15:09, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Another SPA account targeting the page Shocking Blue. Within the past 6 months or so, the only new accounts that have edited that page have been sockpuppets which happen to also be mostly SPA accounts. Blossom Girl like the other sockpuppets, mark all their edits as minor. Need CU to check for sleepers. Also, IP blocks have been pretty effective. A block on the underlying IP would also be appreciated. Elockid  ( Talk ) 23:57, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

There are no sleepers that I saw. As far as a connection goes, I had to dig back in the archive to see if there were any saved data. All I can tell you is that they are in the same city as previously blocked socks (and on a different, larger, range), so a connection. TN X Man 00:10, 28 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay thanks. I'm blocking Blossom Girl as a suspected sock. Elockid  ( Talk ) 00:20, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
