This is a procedural opening of SPI before I block socks based on WP:DUCK. Evidence is as follows:


 * 1) Behavior in consecutive edits of
 * 2) *TyTyKKWIki adds dubious info about person's cause of death
 * 3) *Tytywikiwiki adds a dedicated section for previous edit
 * 4) *Tylkrby767 copyedits punctuation for cause of death
 * 5) Behavior in
 * 6) *Article created by Tylkrby767
 * 7) *Tytywikiwiki edits article 1 hour after creation
 * 8) Tytywikiwiki edit of another sock's user page, User:Tylkrby767
 * 9) Common behavior of adding death hoaxes
 * 10) *Tytywikiwiki to Joakim Noah
 * 11) *Tylkrby767 to Corey Adamson
 * 12) Common addition of Iron Bowl related external links to
 * 13) *TyTyKKWIki adds link
 * 14) *Tylkrby767 adds link
 * 15) Similar user names

Another user asked Tylkrby767 on March 28 if the other accounts were related, but the question received no response. I am choosing not to repeat the question again. —Bagumba (talk) 00:16, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Sockpuppet accounts have been indefinitely blocked and tagged. Leaving the sockmaster (first account opened), TyTyKKWIki, unblocked. Note that sockpuppet Tylkrby767 received a final warning for disruptive editing, which applies to TyTyKKWIki and their future editing. Marking case for closing.—Bagumba (talk) 00:30, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Another procedural SPI before blocking based on WP:DUCK the latest of multiple accounts for TyTyKKWIki. Redsfan21 provided tip about Tylkrby7677. Name is similar to, blocked earlier as a sock, and also shares same interests of userboxes on user page of being a fan of Kansas Jayhawks and Kansas City Royals. Tylkrby7677 was warned about providing proper notification about multiple accounts. While Tylkrby7677 claims on April 12 17:14 that they lost their password to Tylkrby767, Tylkrby767 edit history clearly shows edits at April 12 17:17 and later.

Redsfan21 is a new user created on April 30, a day after Tylkrby767 was blocked as a sock. Suspicious that a new user is able to identify this specific sock so quickly. Behaviorally, Tylkrby767 had a tendency to paste other users' signatures when addressing them on talk pages  as does Redsfan21. Tylkrby767's user page and Redfan21's share interest in Cincinnati Reds, Kansas Jayhawks, and Iron Bowl. —Bagumba (talk) 06:28, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Sockpuppets indefinitely blocked and tagged. Sockmaster TyTyKKWIki, previously unblocked in the last sockpuppet sweep, is now indefintely blocked and tagged as user has shown no interest in using one account.—Bagumba (talk) 06:55, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
 * CU requested to check for sleepers, as Tylkrby7677 was not caught before, and user is continuing to create new socks like Redsfan21.—Bagumba (talk) 06:55, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
 * There was one additional account,, now blocked.--Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 23:14, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Another procedural SPI before blocking based on WP:DUCK. Ran into this account while undoing non-constructive edits. Similarities include continuing to paste other users' signatures when addressing them on talk pages, similar to behavior of previously reported socks. User is drafting Draft:Kelly Oubre, same subject as the twice speedily deleted Kelly Oubre that was created by sock User:Redsfan21 before. User box on their user page lists a "real name" that is similar to usernames of past socks. —Bagumba (talk) 18:57, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

 * (sigh) I used AGF with this user, and here we are with a drawer of socks. ✅, no sleepers. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 19:15, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
