This guy is in the habit of creating new accounts. I suspect WP:FOWLPLAY. I don't think CU is needed. Dr.  K.  19:57, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Looking into this at the moment. Mz7 (talk) 19:55, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
 * This particular sockmaster is interested in adding a "Famous People" or "Significant People" section to the 20th century article. As far as I can tell, the master first added this kind of section on June 4, 2017, as the IP address 173.218.61.1. Then, on June 7, 2017, the user created an account,, and proceeded to add to the "Famous People" list for a couple edits before editing logged out again shortly afterwards . Recently, the master created all of the accounts named above and expanded a new "Significant People" section which still exists on the article today. As far as I can tell, "SeththeGreat" is the first account among the bunch, so I'll be moving this case under that name presently. Mz7 (talk) 20:05, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
 * It's fairly obvious per WP:DUCK that these accounts are all related. I have blocked and tagged the sockpuppets indefinitely, and I have blocked the master account, SeththeGreat, as well as the IP address for 1 week. Further disruptive editing or sock puppetry may result in an indefinite block. Mz7 (talk) 20:20, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
