Obvious block evasion is obvious... Similarity in edited pages; near exactly similar edits on List of Brazilian states by area (messing with flags); vs. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 00:03, 13 May 2022 (UTC)

Suspicious new account; goes around restoring the same table from the List of German states by area (which has now been redirected to the main page as it is an entirely unnecessary single-stat duplicate) as the other socks; third edit is to user page claiming that they are a "Wikipedian who is trying to get attention.", ... Not quite as ducky as the other ones and the IP, so requesting CU just to be sure RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 14:35, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

 * I ✅, blocked and tagged before I saw, which is also ✅ and is the oldest account.  This will need to be moved to reflect the new master and the accounts retagged.--  Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:27, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Moved case, retagged accounts, closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 02:49, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

 * This is peak trolling: they've copied my edit summary from elsewhere and changed the numbers, except here it doesn't even make sense (because .57 actually does round up...), and this is about something entirely different... It also, however, confirms this is indeed the same person as behind the other accounts. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs)  04:05, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

Posted on Moxy's talkpage. made a similar comment in June,.

While I was writing this they went on to post, which I think saves me from needing to do any further investigation. 01:31, 11 July 2024 (UTC) BilledMammal (talk) 01:31, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Since I see you've just blocked them for 31 hours for edit warring, I thought I should notify you of this. BilledMammal (talk) 01:34, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
