Suspected sockpuppets

 * ( original case name)

Was looking through this IP's contributions the other day as their edits were bold and citing policy left, right and centre. Obviously an experienced user who's been around for a while and now editing logged out. So I went through their contributions to see whether something identified them and restoring of 32k of prose with the edit summary "restore old details" gave it away that it's User:Wallace-it-up. A user based in Wellington going by this write up, where it's explained that they made the contributions to that article that got deleted in 2019. Been using this IP since 12 January 2022 and topic interests match. I shall go ahead and block this IP. I've been advised to document this here so that other editors can see it and it might help subsequent sockpuppet investigations.  Schwede 66  18:43, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
