Suspected sockpuppets
After six year hiatus, Musteizer went active today on and was blocked for edits there. TheTruthOfAlgeria created on 	2021-10-22T08:04:52 but went active today after Musteizer blocked to perform similarly on Dihya. Also, Historian0922 created today for similar edits on Dihya. I blocked TheTruthOfAlgeria and Historian0922 as obvious socks. Mostly just documenting unless the regulars think more is needed. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 15:16, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

The similarities in what these edits by all three are trying to achieve is too close to be be a mere coincidence.  Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 15:28, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Also, how did they know I reported them to AIV (if they weren't stalking me)? Judging by the various comments they left there, it's clear that a) this isn't their first account and b) they dealt with me before (i.e., they are returning to settle an old score).

 * - considering the age of the master account and TheTruthOfAlgeria, and the number of accounts involved, I think a check would be useful to look for sleepers. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 17:51, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

 * There's not much I can say. and  geolocate to the same country, but are using different IP ranges (one of which, Spur tells me, has a Proton VPN user on it). The other one geolocates to a different (nearby) country. I obviously can't rule out clever evasion techniques and/or off-wiki coordination.   Girth Summit  (blether)  21:36, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Interesting. If these aren't socks, it's hard to believe that there's not some sort of improper coordination going on. Since everyone is currently blocked, I'm going to close this without further action. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 22:06, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
