 * See Sockpuppet investigations/Jimchu23 and Sockpuppet investigations/Chuckcanton, which accounts listed here have been linked to. Most of these are stale, and (unless I missed any) there don't seem to be accounts that are stale locally and non-stale on some other wiki. —Mdaniels5757 (talk) 20:12, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

 * - Lovewhatyoudo and Joshualiang123 accounts are not stale and not blocked. But, you have to provide some evidence (in the form of WP:diffs) to prove their connection to other accounts.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  16:15, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * An example of Lovewhatyoudo's edit on Chinese Wiki is a direct word-for-word English to Mandarin translation of blocked user Philosopher C's edit, except that Philosopher C cunningly omitted the YouTube links to avoid scrutiny. Am requesting CheckUser for any sleeper accounts and also to merge the the sockpuppet investigations of Jimchu23 and Chuckcanton if CheckUser finds that all of these accounts are linked and which may dictate the possibility of a Sockfarm.

 * Joshualiang123's edits look more like run-of-the-mill BLP vandalism to me. I'm inclined to close without action, since almost all of these accounts are long-stale or already blocked. GeneralNotability (talk) 16:19, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Indeed, Joshualiang123's vandal edits seemed somewhat generic, but is still highly suspicious as the account revives their editing activities after being dormant for almost 4 years. And their first edit (a vandal one) was only two days after this blocked sockpuppet's edit. Eternityworldd (talk) 16:17, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - Please, compare Lovewhatyoudo to Philosopher C.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  08:15, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Lovewhatyoudo and Philosopher C. are ❌ and on different continents.
 * Case closed.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  12:48, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * (who is apparently off-line for a while) CU-blocked Simpletech32, Joshualiang123, and Jasonpowers23 but no tags. Does it make sense to tag them as socks of Rul1890? -- RoySmith (talk) 01:59, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
