Suspected sockpuppets


The account User:IAMTHEBI was registered on December 20, 2018, less than nine hours after User:AGNARUTO was blocked indefinitely as a WP:DUCK sockpuppet of Decemberboyl.

Since registering, IAMTHEBI has edited heavily in articles that were edited previously by AGNARUTO and Decemberboyl. See the user interaction analyser. In fact, 73 out of IAMTHEBI's 117 edits (62.3 percent -- almost two-thirds) were to articles edited previously by AGNARUTO and Decemberboyl.

The style of editing between AGNARUTO (the more recent blocked account) and IAMTHEBI are very similar. Both edit exclusively (basically 100% from what I can see) to the area of popular music, with an overwhelming proportion of those edits being to articles relating to Ariana Grande.

Given the timing of the account registration and the overwhelming overlap in the topic areas edited, I think this is a pretty clear duck case of block evasion. Aoi (青い) ( talk) 02:02, 6 January 2019 (UTC) reply

Since registering their account yesterday, this editor has made three edits, all three of which were to articles edited by the last sock, and two of which were to restore edits made by the last sock. Specifically, see:

New user jumping into the same pop music articles (all their mainspace edits (though to be fair, there aren't many) are to articles edited by previous socks, see [1] here) making the same types of edits to music charts as prior socks. Note also similar grammar use as prior socks -- there aren't many user_talk namespace edits to go off, but please see this versus this. User appears to be familiar with what a sockpuppet is based on comments on my talk page, so it seems they're not a brand new user. Requesting a CU to confirm only if necessary.

Like prior socks, user's only edits are to pop music articles, with a focus on music charts, focusing on Ariana Grande and Avril Lavigne articles. Prior socks have focused much on these two artists (and in fact, a prior sock had the user name AVRILFAN66. I think this one is obvious enough that a CU isn't required.
