Suspected sockpuppets
DUCK behaviour with edit comments rumbling about a show called "My favorite ITZY". Single edit per account on one single article. Requesting for CU in case there are other articles being affected by similar vandalism using multiple fake accounts. – robertsky (talk) 16:15, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

 * - With just one edit each, it's unlikely CU would show anything useful, and even if it did, it's unlikely a block could be justified. On the other hand, the behavioral evidence seems more than sufficient to assume the accounts are related even without CU backup.  My suggestion is to issue some warnings and see what happens.

 * It's obviously the same person, but I don't see anything about the use of multiple accounts which is in any way abusive. The only aspect of the use of multiple accounts which in any way infringes the policy on sockpuppetry is using them to edit the same article, but there is no overlap in time, and no attempt whatever to hide the fact that it's one person. I therefore don't see a charge of sockpuppetry as going anywhere. However, forgetting sockpuppetry, the editor is clearly NOTHERE. The problems with the suggestion of issuing warnings are (1) a warning has been given to one of the accounts, and the editor still did the same again with another account, and (2) since each account makes just one edit and is then abandoned, it's very likely that the editor will never see any warnings. I have therefore issued NOTHERE blocks. If that doesn't work, article protection may be needed. Anyway, as far as this sockpuppet investigation is concerned, I don't think there's anything to do, so it can be closed. JBW (talk) 18:38, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
