Suspected sockpuppets

 * ( original case name)

Suspicious interaction on Meritt North, Randy Brooks (gospel musician). I'm actually more inclined to think it's UPE Meat, but definitely needs more eyes.

 * OK, so and  are connected. I wouldn't quite say confirmed on the technical data, but they are very  to one another, and them showing up at the same article/draft is too much to be a coincidence. Ofus is the older account, so I've moved this report over to that name, and will block both as CU blocks.  appears to be technically ❌ -, can I ask you to consider whether or not action needs to be taken against that account based on your behavioural observations? If it's MEAT or unrelated UPE, they should still be blocked, but I suspect you have looked into the editing more closely that I have.   Girth Summit  (blether)  18:37, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks @Girth Summit and for the re-name. I realized it right after I filed. The orange flags are this AfC acceptance of the draft on Moore and this quick adaptation of Brooks from PR notes to a draft with these adjustments. Not a smoking gun but suspicious IMO. Thoughts?

 * I've taken a look at some of their other contributions. I'm seeing obvious promo, and inappropriate logged out editing (also promotional) to boot. Indeffed. Girth Summit  (blether)  11:31, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
