Suspected sockpuppets

These three accounts appear to have been registered for the purpose of vote-stacking Articles for deletion/Nicolas M. Chaillan. As the editor who most frequently edited the article on Nicolas M. Chaillan and the first registered account to !vote keep in the afd, Thomasnyc seems like the most likely sockmaster. Sir Sputnik (talk) 00:34, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Given that there's some uncertainty as to whether this is sock- or meatpuppetry, I'm requesting CU evidence to shed some light on the matter. Sir Sputnik (talk) 18:24, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

NOTE: These socks appear to relate to the Sockpuppet investigations/Tom.kutner/Archive case from back in 2014. — Cactus Writer (talk) 16:27, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I definitely smell a duck here, and this edit (deleted history) is why. After the Nicolas Chaillan article was created by (checkuser blocked) on June 5, 2017 and deleted the same day, the possible sock account here is created a week later and was able to create the article again with the exact same content. It also matches the content word-for-word as well as with the same spacing and formatting and template usage as the latest revision of Nicolas M. Chaillan (which was significantly modified by  as well as other usernames that have been checkuser blocked) before this page was deleted. Despite this evidence, I would love to see two edits between these accounts that directly link them together. In my view and with my findings, this to me looks to either be a case of sock puppetry or a case of meat puppetry. This is where I'm currently at right now...  ~Oshwah~  (talk)  (contribs)   08:21, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree with you, -- I'm also not certain whether this is a sock or meat puppet. A previous sock in 2014 stated there were a group of people . The recreation of word-for-word content in the article is clearly suspect. Also, at the AFD, Medical87 places strong emphasis on Chastain's age  as did two of the socks at a previous AFD, . But that's as far as I can go. —  Cactus Writer (talk) 18:17, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
