 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  21:11, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I forgot to add that the edits between the sock master and the sock puppet is that they made at least their first ten edits on the sandbox in order for them to edit the article that is currently protected. After their first ten edits, they then write defamatory comments on Taylor Swift related articles like what the sockmaster does and the sockpuppet did here and there. They said something about regarding president Donald Trump and negative stuff about Taylor. Also, today "Willueverwin" has commented something on an article with all caps compared to the master. This is regarding to the defamatory content that those users did. And after the sockpuppets that the master created has been blocked. They create the new account to repeat the pattern over and over again. Rarity dash  ( talk ) 15:16, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

WP:DUCK. Makes 10+ edits on WP:Sandbox to get "autoconfirmed", even though that takes four days, and then adds a comment about Taylor Swift. From past behaviour, I can tell that this user does not like Joe Biden or the Democratic Party, and this comment contains We cannot be scared of CoVID, or the Democrats WILL control us. Furthermore, the user combines English words together in one phrase to make their username and they use slanted quotes (“) instead of straight quotes ("). The quotes and username are habits of previous socks. D🐶ggy54321 (let's chat!) 19:15, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
