On Hiroko Tsuji (musician), user was blocked for 24 hours due to edit warring. During block, possible sock was created making some of the same edits and BLP/tag blanking as the main. See for example  &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;   &#9743;(ring-ring)  00:17, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

Hello. Please note that the master is not blocked as they were blocked for only 3 weeks in 2016 and they have not made any contribution ever since - however this is not a "genuine" WP:CLEANSTART as they are updating the same article.

Historically, Orugoro and Kaori Muraji were the 2 accounts that were updating Kento Masuda. Then after they were blocked in April 2016 (see the Archive), Tal Essen was created in May 2016 and started editing that same article:
 * Kento Masuda: Revision history.

Just like Kaori Muraji, Tal Essen has a liking for visits to Grammy awards ceremonies, for the Order of St. Sylvester, and for sourcing things with pictures: Also, if you look at other Wikis you will see that Tal Essen is updating the articles in other languages just like Orugoro and Kaori Muraji before them: German, Italian, ... So I believe Tal Essen is a sockpuppet of Orugoro - or rather a clean start that is not "genuine" enough. Which in itself is not so bad but...
 * Kaori Muraji at Talk:Hiroko Tsuji (musician) (you need to read what Loriendrew wrote above Kaori Muraji to see the mentions of Grammy visits and Order of St. Sylvester)
 * Tal Essen at Kento Masuda.

...after I reverted Tal Essen's latest edits at Kento Masuda earlier today, brand new account Clair Digby reverted me. Given that the master Orugoro has a history of edit warring and of sockpuppetry, I think the probability that Clair Digby is a sockpuppet of Tal Essen is quite high.

 * WP:CLEANSTART is not a get-out-of-jail-free card. It explicitly is not available to users who are currently blocked. Although Tal Essen was created after Orugoro's block expired, it's clear they're the same editor and that they created a new account to avoid scrutiny while continuing to edit the same articles. Tal Essen was created to revert to Orugoro's preferred version of the article; Clair Digby was created to revert to Tal Essen's preferred version of the same article. All of the accounts here are .
