Suspected sockpuppets

Behaviorally these are obviously related in some way; the main point of contact is on Excelsior Academy where all four have edited disruptively over time. Donaldself0125 appears to be the earliest to edit this article in question, and is blocked, as is TheRudeGuy2022, both as VOAs; today, Jonsmithwikipro and TheEditor30006 both appeared, both edited disruptively using the same tactics - pasting large chunks of unrelated articles (frequently football-related) in on various pages. Both ceased editing after I warned them. Here's Donaldself0125 doing the same tactic back a few months. TheEditor30006 had a few reasonable edits back in February 2021 and may be the earliest of these operating - now that I think of it I probably should have used this as the case name - but it's hard to say which might be the master. I am hesitant to ask for a CU to be run, because these can certainly be blocked on behavior, but I do wonder if there might be more to this. I'll leave that for a clerk to consider.
