This is a set of accounts (already blocked) by an IP editor who has been disruptively changing data in dog articles, making very recognizable edits with very recognizable edit summaries. Yngvadottir and others have tried to discuss this with the person but to no avail, and what's left is blocks and semi-protection.
With a bit of time we could produce a long list of IPs that have been used, but there's little point to it--there's a fair amount of hopping. They use regular IPs and IPv6s; I have listed a few, but there are dozens. I haven't attempted geolocation for all of them but the ones I looked at point to Philadelphia. Recently, perhaps because I've semi-protected a number of articles, they started creating accounts; I do not know if John Kwiecinski is actually the earliest account and that is one of the reason I'm asking for CU. Another is that this recent habit of creating sock accounts is potentially more disruptive than the rather easily recognizable IP edits.
Editors who are in the know, to a greater or lesser extent, are Sagaciousphil, Hafspajen, Favonian. Admins and editors who have recently blocked and reverted include Graham87, GB fan, DVdm. Drmies ( talk) 17:28, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Rottweiler3 seems to the latest ... and it looks as if then swapping back to an IP so I've added one of the latest IP addresses as well above. SagaciousPhil - Chat 05:45, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
- I was just looking at some unusual edits made to mainly dog articles in the last couple of days by another new account Canary27; not the same type of edits or edit summaries but generally messing about and adding (unnecessary) subheadings. I have added it to the list above as when I checked the (odd) user sandbox it refers to Rottweiler3. So it may also warrant checking but please remove if I'm just getting paranoid ... or if I shouldn't have added this - sorry, I don't know the correct procedures. SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:25, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- I've added the latest (Tyga boy); the account has already been blocked. Another IP was also used but I haven't added it. SagaciousPhil - Chat 05:14, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Dogster is already blocked. Please check for other sleepers: they have been using at least a half a dozen very different IP addresses recently; I blocked a few of them.

Administrator note Not sure what a CU can do unless you want to block a /13, which isn't likely. I blocked for a month (this seems to be a stable IP) after a one, then two week block didn't do the trick. Protected a page. I have no doubt it is the same user.

- A CU might be able to find accounts, but they couldn't publish them as that would link names to numbers. This individual has been using only IP addresses for this year. Of course, a CU has access to a lot more data than we do, so what they do (if anything) will be based on that. I'm not a clerk, I don't accept or decline CU requests, I'm just another admin.

20:55, 16 January 2017 (UTC) - Confirmed to each other. It is
Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely) that this is
Dog and rapper vandal, as the edits come from a range I blocked for abuse in December and the technical data is very, very close, but that's the best I can do. 
Behavioural evidence needs evaluation. Blocked without tags.

- OK--CU confirmed with the old dog and rapper vandal. This should be merged into Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/John Kwiecinski. User:Graham87, you blocked a range, and I'd like for you to look at more ranges, but I'm not going to drop that here--instead, I'll post some info on the CU wiki, on User:KrakatoaKatie's talk page. Katie, you've handled a bunch of these blocks; I'd like for you also to have a look and see what you can do. You'll see that there's a university or something like that among the IPs that CU delivered, and a few more accounts that I'm about to have a look at. BTW one of the links uncovered by CU is User:Mr. Krabs With Hair, who needs a tag, as does User:Eurofan86. Drmies ( talk) 15:21, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

User:Dr. Dog, who has been active in the same article as another sock--see

Checkuser requested because this person often creates multiple accounts.

- Regarding the case being stale, it seems to me that
Ponyo has been quietly blocking a bunch of registered accounts via checkuser, accounts that have been doing similar things as this sockmaster. And Ponyo blocked
King Neptune's Trident specifically naming this case. Below is a list of the user names I can find that have been blocked by Ponyo via checkuser but without a master specified, ones that have been editing rapper biographies.

Dogster is already blocked. Please check for other sleepers: they have been using at least a half a dozen very different IP addresses recently; I blocked a few of them. There may be a possible range block in here as well. Pinging the experts and former CUs on this case, Ponyo and Mike V. Thanks! Drmies ( talk) 18:40, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Oh, it was suggested that User:Looneyboy6 seems to have been an earlier incarnation; I don't really have an opinion. Drmies ( talk) 18:48, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

- @ Drmies: Everything I see is blocked, though that's not saying much since the archives are stale. I looked at a rangeblock, but the range was ginormous. You can email me the IPs you're aware of and I can see if a couple of smaller ranges may work if you'd like.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:33, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Based on behavioral evidence. See Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Dog and rapper vandal. You may also want to check for sleepers (again). -- Gestrid ( talk) 22:07, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
- (Non-administrator comment) @ Dennis Brown: I was under the impression that a CU would be able to find any current sleeper accounts. This LTA seems to have had quite a few in the past. -- Gestrid ( talk) 23:26, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

Administrator note Not sure what a CU can do unless you want to block a /13, which isn't likely. I blocked for a month (this seems to be a stable IP) after a one, then two week block didn't do the trick. Protected a page. I have no doubt it is the same user.

- A CU might be able to find accounts, but they couldn't publish them as that would link names to numbers. This individual has been using only IP addresses for this year. Of course, a CU has access to a lot more data than we do, so what they do (if anything) will be based on that. I'm not a clerk, I don't accept or decline CU requests, I'm just another admin.

- Confirmed to each other. It is Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely) that this is
Dog and rapper vandal, as the edits come from a range I blocked for abuse in December and the technical data is very, very close, but that's the best I can do. Behavioural evidence needs evaluation. Blocked without tags.

- After further checks, the technical data matches in another range with two socks of John Kwiecinski, so I'm now ready to confirm these two to Dog and rapper vandal. Clerk assistance requested: Please merge this into the John Kwiecinski case and tag accordingly. Thanks. :-)

Oh dear-- [1] and [2] are just identical. The odd thing is that the Alvini account is more recent--but still, more than enough reason to block. Will check for sleepers. Drmies ( talk) 15:07, 16 August 2017 (UTC)
- OK--CU confirmed with the old dog and rapper vandal. This should be merged into Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/John Kwiecinski. User:Graham87, you blocked a range, and I'd like for you to look at more ranges, but I'm not going to drop that here--instead, I'll post some info on the CU wiki, on User:KrakatoaKatie's talk page. Katie, you've handled a bunch of these blocks; I'd like for you also to have a look and see what you can do. You'll see that there's a university or something like that among the IPs that CU delivered, and a few more accounts that I'm about to have a look at. BTW one of the links uncovered by CU is User:Mr. Krabs With Hair, who needs a tag, as does User:Eurofan86. Drmies ( talk) 15:21, 16 August 2017 (UTC)
- Also just blocked
User:Dr. Dog, who has been active in the same article as another sock--see
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Xboxmanwar. It is possible that those have something to do with each other, but I'm done with this thing for now...

Checkuser requested because this person often creates multiple accounts. Captain Lloyd Banks is doing the same things as previous dog-and-rapper vandal socks, for instance posting the height of a rapper, [3] [4] and performing the same edits as previous sock accounts or IPs. [5] [6] Binksternet ( talk) 06:29, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
- Regarding the case being stale, it seems to me that
Ponyo has been quietly blocking a bunch of registered accounts via checkuser, accounts that have been doing similar things as this sockmaster. And Ponyo blocked
King Neptune's Trident specifically naming this case. Below is a list of the user names I can find that have been blocked by Ponyo via checkuser but without a master specified, ones that have been editing rapper biographies.
