 * .&#32;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)  21:51, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Similar habits, such as undoing revisions without explanation, creating redirects previously deleted at RfD, and similar topic such as Pokemon and Spacetoon. -  C HAMPION  (talk) (contributions) (logs) 07:50, 22 May 2017 (UTC)

IP continuously makes and reverts back to the same edits as the master under previous IPs. Sockmaster is currently being monitored by administrator, who has reblocked the user many times under his many IP proxies. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 03:08, 18 October 2017 (UTC)

Continuously making similar edits in the same pattern as the master. Master appears to be using this range. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk &bull;&#32;contribs) 14:26, 4 December 2017 (UTC)

Mass unexplained reverting of other users, and a substantial number of (unexplained) edits to redirects. A previous sock was under the name of, similar to the name "Max Storm". I believe that Max Storm is a sock of Sonic N800. JOE BRO  64  01:14, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Similar edit warring pattern on tech and video game subjects (diff 1 diff 2 diff 3 diff 4). Master may have also added Islam subjects to their targets, as can be seen with their edit warring behavior on Jumu'atul-Wida and Messenger of Allah. All IPs in the range Geolocate to same location as previous socks. Jalen D. Folf  (talk)  18:29, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
