It appears there is something similar going on in Engwall family. It is a close match to Wallenberg family in style and content, and the two users who have contributed to it most exhibit similar editing patterns and style, i.e. continual inflation through minutiae as well as never leaving an edit summary. There is also some overlap here; both users have actively edited the page at one point in time, before Funkyuggla definitively took over. In any case, both accounts have been actively used at a time SpiritualMammser was also active. Jay D. Easy (t) 19:47, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I do want to point out that Funkyuggla does actively contribute to lots of pages unrelated to the Engwall/Wallenberg family. This is in contrast to the other accounts mentioned. Jay D. Easy (t) 19:53, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
 * It has been brought to my attention that this user has previously been investigated for sockpuppetry: – though at the time no mention was made about it possibly being connected to the various SpiritualMammser accounts. Jay D. Easy (t) 05:00, 25 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Not sure if it's against sockpupetting rules but there is at least interaction between Essenafzillie and Funkyuggla, as Funkyuggla accepted Essenafzillie's draft (Engwall family) that had been previously been declined twice. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested ∆transmissions∆ °co-ords° 22:37, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Checkuser isn't going to be much use here. CU declined. -- zzuuzz (talk) 10:13, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
 * -, these particular accounts have been operated in series - that is to say, each time, one was used then abandoned, then a new one started up editing. I don't see that as a WP:BADSOCK violation - users are allowed to abandon one account and move onto another (e.g. if they lose a password). If there is an apparent intent to evade scrutiny, it may still be a violation, but in the case of these four accounts they are using almost the same username each time, so I don't see any ill intent in the repeated account creations. I see at the ANI thread there are more accounts listed - are you requesting that those be investigated instead? Girth Summit  (blether)  10:20, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The only non-stale account is indef'd. . Feel free to report again if activity continues with the old accounts (it'd be block evasion now) or new accounts. MarioGom (talk) 15:14, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
