 * The master is . The two puppet accounts are ✅. I've blocked and tagged the puppets. The master account hasn't edited in a year. If for some reason they resume, this case should be reopened. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:15, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Editor restored long-winded content to Reception sections of three USA Network shows, Suits, Burn Notice and White Collar. These and several others have been the playground of both socks, along with two IPs, both recently blocked. I've notified the blocking admin. Drmargi (talk) 10:58, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Requested disruptive edits at Burn Notice, making disruptive edits White Collar (TV series) and pages related to the latter consistent with RedDeadJohn socks. Edit summaries include consistent language and spelling errors. Moves between New York and DC, editing via socks and IP socks. --Drmargi (talk) 14:15, 1 February 2016 (UTC) Drmargi

Disruptive editing to Reception section of Covert Affairs, requesting similar at Burn Notice and White Collar (TV series). This is consistent with the RedDeadJohn sock farm. Drmargi (talk) 13:42, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
