Suspected sockpuppets
Hello - this is my first report at SPI, so apologies in advance if this is misguided for whatever reason.

Perhaps an odd request, since one account is already blocked (swiftly, after being created), so socking can't continue... but I suspect similar future disruption could occur.

The Hammering Hammer opened a Talk page discussion [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Ronald_Reagan#Why_isn%E2%80%99t_the_page_locked? here] wondering why a certain page was not protected. Users responded, telling them that there's been a lack of disruption, and protection is only applied if needed. 21 minutes after the last reply to that thread, the account Tungstenian was created and started blatantly disrupting the page. The Hammering Hammer is themselves a new account without much editing history (~2 months, ~200 edits); I suspect they created account #2 to force the page protection they seemingly wanted.

Tungstenian is Long-term abuse/CalebHughes (SPI). It's technically very clear, and I'm as certain as it's possible to be, that The Hammering Hammer is unrelated. It just seems to be an unfortunate coincidence, although it's possible the comment also triggered some sort of a reminder for CalebHughes to get back on their vandal pony. -- zzuuzz (talk) 05:29, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
