Each of these accounts is SPA for Dennis Prager. Each has only a few edits. The edit notes are all sentence format - capital letters and periods. All are adding positive content, removing negative. Some have same phrasology: You get the idea. Roscoe Martin is the oldest one here; one diff, a minor copy edit but same edit note format as the others. So maybe, behaviorally. Others are much stronger. Asked for a CU in case there are sleepers, since they appear to know how to do this now, but if folks here prefer, there is enough to block these behaviorally, in my view.

 * Jameshastings - -diff These statements are dishonest, not accurate and intentionally misleading in an attempt to slander/misrepresent Dennis Prager. and
 * Huckandharry diff This statement is not accurate, misleading and dishonest.

 * looks a lot like Jameshastings.

FYI: A few Sockpuppet investigations/Delotrooladoo socks have edited the article.

There are a number of southern California, Midwest US, and UK ip's that I now assume are unrelated.

There is active promotion of Prager and his viewpoints from PragerU and it's student outreach program, so we can expect more of these in the future. --Ronz (talk) 20:02, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

 * - Slothflipper, Huckandharry, and Jameshastings all appear to be removing the same or similar content with very similar edit summaries . However the rest of the accounts I'm not so sure about. Sro23 (talk) 20:45, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

 * These accounts are ✅ to each other:


 * Irwinwade, Roscoe Martin and Mauceric are ❌ to this group and to each other. Slothflipper is the oldest account; they're already tagged because Yunshui ran it without addressing the SPI, so all we need to do is move it. Katietalk 19:08, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Done. Closing. Sro23 (talk) 20:57, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

New account ColleenLiggett removed content on an article Dennis Prager, that was later reverted by another user claiming that it's well sourced, then engages in an edit war where later another new account JamesMcFarlane7 removed it, possibly the same user as ColleenLiggett to try and get around the three-revert rule. theinstantmatrix (talk) 16:50, 14 December 2017 (UTC)

 * - This is almost certainly, another editor who has socked to remove the section LGBT rights from the article on Dennis Prager. Please block both socks indefinitely. Could an admin clerk please merge this case into Sockpuppet investigations/Slothflipper? Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:14, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
