Suspected sockpuppets
Showed up to "restore article with a few more refs" merely an hour after the other user's work on an article was redirected. Sorry but this is too much of a coincidence, imo. Editing activity overlaps in several different areas according to the interaction report. NØ 13:16, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Hello, I'm not really sure whether to reply on this but I figure it might make things a bit more clear. I can confirm that I am neither a sockpuppet nor a sockmaster, nor have I ever collaborated off-wiki with the other editor listed. I found the page in question via Special:NewPagesFeed. That special page allows for filtering by user, so when I find a user who has created good pages, I will often filter by that user (or go to their contributions page) and review more of their new pages, already having some context around their work. If I edit a page during new page patrol, it ends up on my watchlist, where I saw the WP:BLAR. I then restored the page with extra referencing I had begun to uncover during my new page review. I appreciate the nominator's diligence towards the quality of Wikipedia and politely request they assume good faith in the future. I hope this message helps. &mdash;siro&chi;o 21:58, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I doubt there is any connection between the two. You will notice I overlap with Scriber88 often as well due to recent activity of new album and song articles popping up on User:AlexNewArtBot/AlbumSearchResult, which I patrol regularly. From the editing patterns, Scriber88 is more assuredly to be User:Wioaw, who hasn't edited since January 2021. Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 22:55, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

 * There is a lot of overlap there. One can never rule out off-wiki collusion, but technically these accounts are ❌.  Girth Summit  (blether)  14:50, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
