I come from Deletion review/Log/2019_August 12. For both these editors, this is the first or amongst the first deletion reviews they have commented on. It is noticeable that Patiodweller commented in 2 DRs, one for August 10 and one for August 12, typed more than 100 words, and all within around 60 seconds of each other. Clearly, this seems a copy-paste effort of either a meat or a sock.

Less than 500 total edits for both editors. Talrolande, after editing regularly for a few months with regular edit summaries like "Spelling mistake", "punctuation", "grammar", fell silent from 11 March 2019 for the next three months, the exact day when Patiodweller was created and started editing, with regular edit summaries like "mechanics/grammar". Talrolande returned to editing from 18 June 2019. Patiodweller too continued. But there are no overlapping timings (that is, both editors have edited at different times on the same day; or on different days).

I noticed them edit when they both left a similar !vote at Deletion review/Log/2019_August 12 and this was amongst their first !votes in any DR. There are other editors too for whom this DR is the first ever DR they have commented in – aka Worldlywise, Challenger.rebecca and Cthomas3. None of these editors were involved in the original AfD and all of them have come to this DR with their first edits. However, I'll leave it to the checkuser's discretion to confirm whether these or other sleeper accounts are there; or if this is simply a coincidence. Lourdes 05:48, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
