Continuing to overwrite the redirects at Let It All Be Music – The Party Album and Ultimate Boney M. without improvement and indication of notability. Seems The Collection (Boney M. box set) is also being targeted here. Jalen Folf  (talk)  17:31, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment: I agree with 's comments below... this isn't really socking as such, as the editor hasn't created different accounts, or is trying to evade a blocked account. It is, however, frustrating that they continue to revert the redirects for various albums by this group without addressing any of the concerns that other editors have expressed about the albums' notability. I was on the point of nominating them all for AfD, just to try and sort out this continual reverting once and for all. Richard3120 (talk) 19:14, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

 * The activity of the master stopped in August 2019, and the sock account has only edited once - in September 2019. Looking just at the timeline, this could be an instance of the user simply moving on from one account to another (forgotten password, etc). I don't see a deceptive timeline or one that shows that a violation of policy has occurred...  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   18:04, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm going to clarify that the two named accounts are ✅ to each other but the IPs are ❌ to those accounts. I've blocked the IPv4 as an IP hopper and it is a proxy. The IPv6 range is blocked to prevent further hopping. I agree with Oshwah concerning the two accounts. The accounts are not on the same continent as the IPs.
 * This report has been fully looked into and the proper actions taken. Closing...  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   19:37, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
