The single edit of this sock continues the discussion that was started by Indian panther. Requesting CU so the actual master for both of these accounts can be traced. S M S Talk 16:04, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

 * The two accounts are ❌.
 * The following accounts are ✅ to each other:
 * They are also confirmed to, for example. I've blocked the unblocked account without a tag.

 * - This should be probably merged into Sockpuppet investigations/LanguageXpert, but I'm putting on hold until the other case is resolved.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  21:59, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
 * This has nothing to do with LanguageXpert. Removed the hold.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:02, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm a bit confused. On that SPI, you confirmed Touristerman returns to Sidhartha Vijaya "and other blocked socks." Who would they be socks of? I understand the tagging situation for group 1, but I'm not quite there on group 2. Thanks, GABgab 00:20, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
 * The only reason you're confused is because it's confusing. You have two choices. You can simply not tag them, which in this instance is perfectly acceptable, or you can collect all the accounts that have been confirmed to each other, figure out who is the oldest, start a new case with that account, tag them, and close it. If you're a glutton for punishment and have nothing better to do, I'd do the latter. --Bbb23 (talk) 00:44, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
 * I may be a glutton, but certainly not for punishment. I've tagged group 1 and will leave group 2 be for now, since there's clearly an older master I'm unaware of. Is that alright? GABgab 00:48, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
 * sorry to butt in, I just noticed you changing some of the tags on accounts I had already tagged from the LanguageXpert case, and ended up here. Indian panther and Harpoon Trigger are CU-confirmed but not to any particular master, but Harpoon Trigger is also linked to an account linked to by admission. Confusingly, that was also a finding from the LanguageXpert case; see . I think this should be merged to Sockpuppet investigations/CosmicEmperor. As far as group 2 I have no idea, but Touristerman returns was also reported at LanguageXpert. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 02:26, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Sorry if I mangled the tagging - I half-expected that would be the case. How would you like me to adjust them? GABgab 03:21, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Is there any particular way you would like me to tag? Regards, GABgab 02:43, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
 * sorry, I seem to have missed your first ping. I re-tagged the first group as CosmicEmperor based on CU link to Harpoon Trigger and earlier findings. Group 2 is also previously confirmed via Touristerman returns to, which is the oldest account of that group. You could separate out the group 1 socks and re-file at the CosmicEmperor SPI, and also make a new case page (or move this one) for group 2. Or you could take Bbb23's advice and just leave it be.

 * ✅. Hope I managed that all correctly... closing. GABgab 15:29, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
