Using multiple IPs and creating accounts to avoid the 3RR on Ozone therapy in an attempt to make this debunked pseudoscience into mainstream medical treatments. ,, , , and many more in the article's history in the past two days. Ifnord (talk) 06:01, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
since checkusers will not associate IP addresses with accounts. With regards to socking, it is plausible that a new user has used a couple of IPs without knowledge of policy and then created an account. That isn't the problem so much as the flagrant pulling of references to reliable sources and substituting advocate sites to back up their synthesis. I have semi-protected the article for two days. I suggest trying to get the editor to communicate on the article talk page so that editors may explain it to him. If that fails then we will look towards blocking. — Berean Hunter   (talk)  10:00, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Closing as the IPs haven't edited in 10 days, so it is stale for the purposes of acting on SPI. As BH noted, CheckUsers do not associate IPs with accounts, so nothing here should be construed as a comment as to if there is a connection or not. TonyBallioni (talk) 06:16, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
