Suspected sockpuppets
Tendentious/disruptive editing at Draft:The PA's Story. Quacking, but unclear if sock or meat. for any insight. Star  Mississippi  19:12, 24 May 2022 (UTC) Adding Biggreeneyes whose article Wilbraham Man happened to find and chime in on. Star  Mississippi  19:44, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Grateful for the ping, . Having just reviewed that draft I had failed to notice the apparent tag team resubmit. I have no real extra insight save for noting the tag team. CU, if accepted, could tell the SPI folks whether that is a sock or a meat team. WHat I see is that each editor has a major interest in the book, one as a draft, the other as a sandbox. It may be that quacking alone is all that is required. 🇺🇦  Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 19:18, 24 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank @Timtrent. WilbrahamMan also has a habit of chiming in on drafts he had no prior tie to which makes me wonder whether we have another one. (See Talk:Tara Clark history). Will include that editor as well. Star   Mississippi  19:43, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
 * @Star Mississippi I just sent Tara Clark to AfD. You will be aware already since you have advised the creating editor. Because of that I notified you of the discussion on your talk page, inviting you to express whatever opinion you see fit there.
 * I noticed The Wilbraham contribution, but assessed the article on its merit 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 19:46, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Added Tvman2020 who has popped up at Articles for deletion/Tara Clark and has made two prior edits in 2018, but in an unrelated area. 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 17:22, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

 * - behavioural evidence suggests a connection (see, ); please CU to investigate the relationships between these accounts and check for others. Biggreeneyes is the oldest account, but I'll hold off on moving the case until the CU results are in. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 09:50, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

 * All of these are ✅ -- RoySmith (talk) 12:49, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm blocking everybody, but I'll leave the tagging to a clerk after the rename. It looks to me like Tvman2020 is the oldest account. -- RoySmith (talk) 12:51, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Moved case, tagged socks, closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 15:28, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Continued promotion of Tara Clark. I caught this belatedly and wasn't going to file, but they returned today as. You can't of course confirm the IP, but in case there are sleepers as there were last time. Star  Mississippi  17:39, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

 * - the old accounts are stale, but going from the CU logs I can say that this account geolocates to the same place as the last bunch of socks. I don't see any other accounts this time. You've got more experience with the case, so I'll leave it to your judgment as to whether or not to block.  Girth Summit  (blether)  11:54, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks as always @Girth Summit. IP came to my talk and essentially admitted to being the last sock-I think it was accidentally logged out-so will give them a short vacation Star   Mississippi  13:46, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
