LordsOFAcid was marked as likely and blocked in the conclusion of Suspected_sock_puppets/Jvolkblum_%287th%29, but was not actually blocked. LittlePoloska, MeekerAvenueGirl, and HelloDollies were confirmed to be the same user as LordsOFAcid, L'espinassse, and Relaxitaxi (L'espinassse and Relaxitaxi were previously blocked as Jvolkblum socks) in the last checkuser.
 * Evidence

EarthCleaner was mentioned in the last sock puppetry case, but no comment was made about the account in the conclusion. EarthCleaner was created at 13:27 on May 21, PLATOLAWS was created two minutes later. PLATOLAWS first two edits were at 8:57 and 8:58 on May 24, the first was 17 minutes after Earthcleaner had made the last edit of their first editing session. PLATOLAWS first edit was to make a user page with only a link the manual of style, as CedricRobinson (a blocked Jvolkblum sock) had previously done. PLATOLAWS second edit created a talk page that appears to be more appropriate as a user page. The page is a copy of WP:CHEAT, as mentioned in Suspected sock puppets/Jvolkblum (7th) two socks of Jovlkblum (Dr.Sobelioni and Wingsolid) had previously created user page with the contents WP:HELP. EarthCleaner also created a talk page that appears to be more appropriate as a user page. Like prevouis Jvolkblum socks, EarthCleaner insterted copyvio text into an article (Trinity-St. Paul's Episcopal Church (New Rochelle, New York)). All of EarthCleaners edits have to been to Jvolkblum's set of articles. PLATOLAWS edits have to been to Jvolkblum's set of articles. PLATOLAWS has uploaded a number of scans postcards, as a number Jvolkblum sock's have previously done.

Sweetiedarling is an older account that edited for 54 minutes on April 26 and then was inactive until May 25. Like many Jvolkblum sock's their first edit was to create a user page. One of there others edits was to create Sheldrake Lake. On May 2, (a confirmed Jvolkblum sock) added a wikilink to the article on two articles. PLATOLAWS recently made an edit to the article. The edit summary for Sweetiedarling's May 25 edit matches Jvolblum's writing, using the + sign and referring to structure (as mentioned in Suspected sock puppets/Jvolkblum (7th)). On May 27 they made an edit to Westchester County, New York inserting a copyvio of, then 22 minutes later the reverted the insertion of the copyvio.

 * Comments

I made the article for St.Johns church because A)I had helpful knowledge to share on the church B)it was not mentioned on wikipedia beforhand C)it has encyclopedic value and C)it is of significance in historical terms. The church has connections to another church in the same town, and that church was already listed on the website which is Trinity-St.Pauls Church (New Rochelle). I added to this existing article because A)I had helpful knowledge to add + improve the article and B)I had a helpful image for the infobox. I uploaded it to the wikicommons photo area from my user name there and saved it under its full name because i was not sure how exactly to make it most easily searchable. It seems that some of the information I added to the Trinity church article was not cited to the source like I intended. That was a clear mistake on my part. Otherwise, I have personally taken images of important areas areound the New Rochelle area, many of which are improvements over existing images. Some are also of subject material that has been debated and argued in the history of the articles. I have taken photos of other mentioned areas like Sheldrake lake, schools, important sites and area signage which I would like to add to benefit the articles. This is the second time said user BlueAzure is making his/her claims of inappropriate behavior against myself. These claims arent fair and arent warranted.

 * The photos Earthcleaner uploaded (including Image:PaineHistoricalSocietyMuseum2.jpg, Image:ThomasPaineFarmhouse1.jpg, and Image:ThomasPaineFarmhouse2.jpg ) contains metadata from the same camera as photos from confirmed Jvolkblum socks (Image:Quaker Ridge 2007.jpg and Image:NY WB crest.jpg),  (Image:CityHallSpring.jpg and Image:CityHallSpring 2.jpg), and  (Image:15 Park Row.JPG, Image:15 Park Row 2.JPG, and Image:15 Park Row 3.JPG).

 * I clearly stated in the photo uploads that they were taken with a Sony cybershot digital camera. The Cybershot camera model (and the Sony brand) are known for their popularity and to be widely used. Thank You.--EarthCleaner (talk) 05:27, 29 May 2008 (UTC) (( This user BlueAzure is attempting to use extremely subjective 'metadata' to support his /her claims against me. Thank You --EarthCleaner (talk) 06:03, 29 May 2008 (UTC)))
 * EarthCleaner uploaded Image:WykagylCCCourse.JPG which is a stretched and slightly cropped version of Image:WykagylCC course.JPG that was uploaded by Jvolkblum sock . BlueAzure (talk) 23:30, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The photo of one of the holes at Wykagyl Country Club was taken by me a year ago for use in a community watershed renewal project. If it was uploaded before it was not fairly used. Thank You.--EarthCleaner (talk) 07:08, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

I have added another suspected sockpuppet to the list. Nina Van Horn was created 01:11 on 17 May 2008, two minutes before Point Place 1970 was created (Point Place 1970 was listed as being a possible sock in the conclusion of Suspected sock puppets/Jvolkblum (7th)). On May 29, EarthCleaner edited from to 5:37. Then, Nina Van Horn edited from 5:42 to 5:50. Then, EarthCleaner edited from 6:03 to. Finally, Nina Van Horn edited from 6:37 to 7:31. Nina Van Horn's first edit was to create a user page, that say "I am mainly interested in contributing to New Rochelle, New York related articles and ensuring it is represented fairly and accurately. Thats all so far. Cheers". Jvolkblum socks have on a number of occasions claimed that there is a bias against the New Rochelle, New York related articles (one example). All of Nina Van Horn's edits to articles have been to remove ref tags. This activity started the day before with apparent open proxies (the whois indicates the IP address is from France)  and  (the whois indicates the IP address is from Saudi Arabia).
