Blatant sock that I've already blocked - see user page history. But I suspect this one is likely to come back again, so this report is really just for the record (though any 2nd opinions are welcome) -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 23:08, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

 * They're hopping around articles, so there's not much we can do in terms of protection. Just keep blocking/reporting. If it ramps up we can run a CU and attempt some IP blocks. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 01:10, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Claims to be Son Phan on his talk page. Gave a Sonphan1 the Vandilism BARNSTAR because "You're a vanilism user." Undid a revert made to one of Sonphan's blocked socks on the 2nd millenium article and complained on the talk page about "those blockers". FallingGravity (talk) 00:55, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Admits to being "Son Phan" here. Same obsession with creating fake articles in user space, e.g. here. Same preoccupation with editing 2nd millennium, , like already blocked socks User:George B. Washington  and User:Sonphan the Great. Diito the obsession with Beethoven,  Quacking loudly, but it might be useful to check for sleepers. Voceditenore (talk) 04:46, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

The master has an obsession with "poop", and like this sock, is known for going cross-wiki. Jasper Deng (talk) 03:25, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

 * - He went to enwikivoyage and meta, two of his favorite hangouts in the past. Obvious trolling edits, so a CU is justified regardless. Rschen7754 03:26, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
 * =, but since they have only edited from a hotel as far as CU can see, I can't say whether they are related to the master or not. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 18:47, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

 * - - See Sockpuppet investigations/Sonphan1 - looking at the contribs of the 2nd account it's obvious this guy's been CUblocked before. Rschen7754 20:29, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Indeed; nothing else to report. Recommend against tagging per WP:DENY. WilliamH (talk) 20:35, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
