Same edit patterns, adding unsourced genres, creating miniature infoboxes in the wrong places. Compare Special:Diff/1035092908 Special:Diff/1034323805 to Special:Diff/1037594012 Special:Diff/1038053215. In many cases continuing the job of the puppeteer: Created just puppeteer was blocked. Not sure it's a DUCK so asking for CheckUser, also there might be a previous puppeteer for both. Muhandes (talk) 19:12, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Exactly the same edits, adding unsourced information (mainly genres and excessive associated acts) to similar articles as previous socks, e.g., Roy Acuff, Marty Robbins, Tennessee Ernie Ford. See interaction. Muhandes (talk) 18:42, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Looking at the EIA, about 40% of Johnson's edits are to articles targeted by Springsteen sox in the past. That makes me pretty confident that they're the same person, but genre warriors are a dime a dozen, and there's no edit summaries or commenting styles to check for tells. There are two non-stale sox in the archive, so to see if that will shed any light.  --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she/they) 20:01, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Sam. Likely is good enough for me given the behavioral similarities. for an indefinite block of Waylan Johnson as a proven sockpuppet.  --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she/they) 21:09, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
