Suspected sockpuppets

Subah Subah has vandalized the pages Windows 7 editions and Windows 10 editions a few times now: 1 2 3 4. This user was typically doing it by inserting incorrect info, removing info, or spamming random numbers like '32000000009999999900000'. This user recently had the last vandalism warning tier posted on their talk page (Uw-vandalism4), and hasn't edited since. But a new user, Sannse.old, recently edited Windows 7 editions four times with the exact same type of vandalism: 5 6 7 8. Other things these users have in common: both edit with a mobile device, and both write the same type of gibberish in the edit summary (usually a short string of letters: hvj, hjb, nbh).

Quack quack. Same pattern of vandalism; the sock seems to have been made to evade the final warning I left for the master. Jasper Deng (talk) 05:43, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

Easy open-and-shut case. Both accounts are clearly adding the same vandalism and with the same edit summaries to the same articles. Both accounts and indefinitely blocked and tagged. Closing SPI report...  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   05:48, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

Obvious similarity of usernames, similar vandalism of Windows 10 editions (diff, diff, diff, diff) and Windows 7 editions (diff, diff, diff, diff). The behavioural evidence is enough that I'll block the socks listed on my own initiative, but requesting CU as it seems unlikely these are the only socks in the drawer.

 * They're all ✅ socks of . If a clerk thinks it worthwhile, this could be merged to that case. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:08, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
