Suspected sockpuppets
Eedejjr only began editing after NflFanInEditing was blocked and they have the exact same editing pattern surrounding USFL players, including adding photos that are blatant copyvios and even editing one of NflFanInEditing's drafts. GPL93 (talk) 16:35, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment There are some other accounts with similar editing history that both Eagles247 and I have noticed, so even though both accounts are blocked I think that a CU could uncover more connected accounts. best, GPL93 (talk) 18:12, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

per WP:DUCK. Same editing pattern on USFL player articles and the account did not start editing until after all the accounts from the previous SPI were blocked. GPL93 (talk) 21:14, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Same MO as previous socks, editing and creating lower-level American football league pages. Created Brock Miller, and Draft:Brock Miller was created/edited by three previous accounts of theirs. Indeffed based on clear evidence, requesting CU for possible other accounts. Eagles</b> <b style="color:#004C54">24/7</b> (C)  15:36, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * VamosRams is another one, seemingly created with the intent to oppose speedy deletion of TheEndZone's articles. <b style="color:#004C54">Eagles</b> <b style="color:#004C54">24/7</b> (C)  15:43, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

Two previous blocked socks of this editor, and  had two things in common, a focus on the XFL (TEZ, Rams), and a focus on Seckinger High School, a school that has only been open since August 2022 (TEZ, Rams). Barstool has the same two areas of focus, XFL teams and Seckinger High School. They have also made byte-for-byte identical edits as one of the blocked sockpuppets (TEZ, Barstool). Maybe it's possible that multiple people have created Wikipedia accounts just to edit XFL teams and a 4 month old high school while making identical edits to pages, but given the history of sockpuppetry that these edits fit the pattern of, I think it's very possible that these are the same person. - Aoidh (talk) 18:09, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Similar MO to previous blocked socks, such as a focus on keeping D'Eriq King up to date (TEZ, QD), creating the Vegas Vipers article (Barstool, QD), and adjusting team names on XFL (2020) (TEZ, QD). One of TheRams4450's edits added a "Quandale Dingle" as an alumni to Pennsauken High School. For someone who supposedly went to school in NJ, it's odd that outside of the XFL they share another interest with NflFanInEditing's socks, which is Buford, Georgia (diff), the location of Seckinger High School (diff) where TheRams4450 took photos. - Aoidh (talk) 18:49, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
