This account (LEq) has popped up immediately after SelectTalentEdit was blocked for sockpuppetry, and is submitting the same draft with the same image of the teenage photographer. I don't know who the original master account is, and will let a clerk research that and organize it properly. (It appears that the hard-working SPI volunteers are still working hard to organize the data on this sockmaster or sock farmer.) Robert McClenon (talk) 16:24, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

 * - Aside from the common interest in Sterling Chandler, it's always suspicious when a new account's very first edit is to someplace esoteric like WP:RPP.  Endorsed. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:44, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Ellswiki is to the master.  Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 09:49, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Looking through the history of Chandler Sterling and other places, I found some more:
 * some of whom were originally blocked as WP:NOTHERE; I'll reblock those as socks. Also looks like Unitedkingdom2017 is the oldest, so a rename would be in order by the time we're done, but still working on this a bit more.  -- RoySmith (talk) 13:44, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
