In addition of the quite similar names (the only difference between both names is the '5' of Orson12345), both accounts were created a few time ago (Orson1234 was joined a month ago and Orson12345 was joined 12 days ago) and their contributions (of the both) are located mainly in articles on the Popes of the Catholic Church and members of nobility, in particular with regard to the incorporation and/or changement of images (see this contributions of Orson1234: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; also those of Orson12345:1,2 and 3). Honestly, despite the image changes that these accounts make, I believe that otherwise they have no intention of damaging Wikipedia. However, for me it seems that the most appropriate thing to do in this case was reporting it here. HefePine23 (talk) 16:17, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

We allow editors to have alternate accounts, per WP:VALIDALT. There's some issue with the main account and copyright, but they appear to want to amend their ways. I don't see a need for a checkuser or a block at this point. I'd recommend continuing to monitor. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:47, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

 * - Whilst they're obviously connected, there's no temporal overlap and no further problematic edits from . No other recent similar account creations. Not otherwise a breach of WP:ILLEGIT. Closing without action. --Jack Frost (talk) 19:51, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
