Suspected sockpuppets

The editor keeps on saying on his two accounts that he will "retire" then return a few days either using the "retired" account, creating a new account or using an IP address. All socks, including the IP addresses are editing mostly ABS-CBN related articles. The most recent account (User:SeanJ 2007) commented on his user talk page that he will edit articles using an IP address again as seen here for whatever reason. The most recent IP even tried nominating one draft article to WP:CSD, and sent this message to the editor that warned him about it. WayKurat (talk) 08:24, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Sean had both his named accounts vanished and visibly returned to editing within days on both occasions. I reverted both vanishings as violating the terms of CV. I have no difficulty believing he's chosen to use IPs as a means to avoid the scrutiny of having a consistent persona. Given my very low opinion of his behaviour & my prior involvement as a renamer it's probably best I recuse myself from clerking this case. Cabayi (talk) 20:34, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I am sorry because of what I did, because I saw articles thats needs update or has vandalism thats why I am editing until now but using multiple accounts. So please, dont block me! 120.29.76.128 (talk) 00:47, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I have observe the same thing with this user. Whenever his edits are reverted or questioned multiple times, just like the case of User:SeanJ 2007, he will abandon his registered account, and claim that he will retire, then he will pop-up again either creating a new account or in this case, use an IP address. -WayKurat (talk) 01:30, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
 * The user also admitted secretly editing using IP address from his parents. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 10:19, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
 * When I was using the SeanJ 2007 account, I requested at the courtesy vanishing to vanish my account and I wrote there that after I will use the account, I will gonna use an IP address. But the admin declined it because I will gonna use an IP address. So guys please, if I will make an update or revert using IP or an account, please don't revert it. 120.29.76.128 (talk) 03:10, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * You know by mentioning your that, you just admitting doing sockpuppetry. -WayKurat (talk) 03:37, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Fine! So I will use again my previous accounts to edit to not be reported as a sockpuppet (If its okay with you guys). 120.29.76.128 (talk) 03:41, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * So which one of your sock accounts that you are going to use again? Remember, your user account got blocked once and even your unblock request declined, it might happen again. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 04:15, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * The SeanJ 2007 account. 120.29.76.128 (talk) 04:24, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Sean's IP sockpuppet has just returned to its own user account, now active in editing again and tries to remove his sock tag by saying "look who's back, I will use this again so I will not be reported as a sockpuppet". -136.158.42.180 (talk) 08:29, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Please consider SeanJ 2007 as my main account. Thank You! 120.29.76.128 (talk) 09:19, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I am returning to my SeanJ 2007 account and please consider this account as my main account because I reset the password of my Sean Ethan James D. Querubin account using shuffled password before using the SeanJ 2007 account. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 01:37, 3 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Can an admin take action on this? The user already admitted that he is doing sockpuppetry activities as seen from his comments above. -WayKurat (talk) 01:38, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I tried reporting it at WP:AIV, but it doesn't work. Is there any other way to block and ban all of Sean's sock accounts? - 136.158.42.180 (talk) 10:17, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Just consider SeanJ 2007 account as my main account because my Sean Ethan James D. Querubin account has been reset using shuffled password before I used the SeanJ 2007 account. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 01:42, 3 September 2021 (UTC)


 * I asked Cabayi at it's talk page if the admin will consider "SeanJ 2007" as my main account. So please, dont revert my edits until the admins decision approves it. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 04:12, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Ask User:WayKurat for that. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 04:21, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

 * WayKurat is not an admin, and we need answers from the admins because they know how to perform this action. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 04:43, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Even non-admins know your actions of doing sockpuppet activites, and likely you are trying to get away without being banned. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 05:00, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * IP 136.52.42.180 reported to WP:AIV to block me, but an admin removed it and comment as "unactionable". So if you guys keeping on reporting me to the WP:AIV, I dont think they will not block me according to the comment "unactionable". SeanJ 2007 (talk) 05:17, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Sean still keeps visiting on my talk page; the user just admitted more previous sockpuppetry activities. The user said an IP "120.29.101.112" was used by Sean before he created his "retired" account, while another IP "120.29.78.202" was also used by Sean before he created his current account after requesting to vanish his "retired" account. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 05:38, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Because I saw articles that needs update or has vandalism. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 05:57, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * You already did have a vandal history in sockpuppeting for more than a year. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 06:24, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * That time, I don't know the rules of Wikipedia, but when I start editing using an account, my contributions were only update edits (except for some like being warned due to my edits at AFDs). SeanJ 2007 (talk) 06:39, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It doesn't change the fact that what you are doing is still wrong and illegal. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 07:04, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank You! SeanJ 2007 (talk) 23:55, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Unfair! User:WayKurat would be disappointed. -136.158.42.180 (talk) 01:59, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
 * If this is the admin's decision, I'll respect it. May this be a lesson to to stop his flip-flopping activities on using a registered account and an IP address. If you want to edit, use your account. Also,  stop dragging my name into something I don't agree on. -WayKurat (talk) 02:32, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Closed without action - changing one's mind about leaving and getting a new account is not sockpuppetry. Reporting IP editor: please stop hounding this editor. Sean Ethan James D.
