Kara5386 and Lilk846 have been editing the same way for a while now where I feel they are attempting to deceive and mislead other editors i.e. myself. They have both been editing the same way on basketball articles in by which they move info from "personal" sections and put it in "early life" sections i.e. here for Lilk846 and here for Kara5386. Also when I tried to discuss this issues and brought them to the attention of sock puppetry on my talk page, they both responded within minutes of each other after both being offline for several hours, and what they said was very similar as well (i.e. grammar, everything lower case). They also both have similar user pages and both don't use ~~~~ after they comment on talk pages (or know how to start a new section in talk pages).

Both users have also been involved in disruptive editing where by they have been reverted several times by other users and they both continue to re-edit the same thing: here for Lilk846 and here for Kara5386. DaHuzyBru ( talk) 14:16, 20 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Also on Kevin Ollie, I have been dealing with Kara5386, and suddenly Lilk846 messages me about Kevin Ollie on my talk page. They also both stop editing/go offline at the same time i.e. they both came back online between 13:10 and 13:43 20 August and then both at the same time, go back offline after a few edits.

Kemba Walker has also been edited by both, and both edit the same type of thing. Also with Stephen Curry (basketball), this edit by a "random" IP is the exact same as this edit by Lilk846 and this edit by Kara5386. Most likely the same person, but this time editing logged out.

I also believe that these two editors are the same person. I had independently come to this conclusion when I saw that User:DaHuzyBru had suggested it on his Talk page. Here is some additional evidence:

• Both users left nearly identical messages on User Talk pages. Kara5386 here on DaHuzyBru's talk page and Lilk846 here on Hook gza's talk page. The wording is almost exact, including the punctuation errors.
• The Kara5386 User was set up at 17:03 on November 28, 2010. The first post on his/her Talk page was at 21:03 on November 28, 2010 by Lilk846.
• The content on Kara5386's user page is "hey im Kara5386 and i lvoe the obamas, celtics, bryant, twilight" - posted at 17:03 on November 28, 2010. Interestingly, the topics that Lilk846 had posted leading up to this included the Family of Barack Obama, Natasha Obama, Rajon Rondo (of the Celtics) and Kobe Bryant.

To me, this case seems really clear once you note the recent topic and editing overlap. Rikster2 ( talk) 16:53, 20 August 2014 (UTC) reply

• I found and blocked the accounts prior to seeing this SPI had been opened. Kara5386 is  Confirmed as Lilk846. I blocked Kara indefinitely due to repeated BLP violations, edit-warring and personal attacks, only to find that she had also been a sock of Lilk846. I therefore blocked the associated account indefinitely as well as the accounts were being used interchangeably.-- Jezebel'sPonyo ^{bons mots} 22:08, 20 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Procedural report of user already blocked as WP:DUCK per discussion here. Common style in user talk page edits, especially in responses; feel free to contact me for more details if needed. User and socks have an affinity to creating (and recreating) articles of relatives of notable athletes. Admins can see deleted contribution history of various socks for history, or talk page histories for XfD notifications.— Bagumba ( talk) 07:06, 17 November 2015 (UTC) reply

50.176.102.238 was already blocked by Ponyo and has had successive blocks since 2014. 70.215.2.89 is a single edit, so will leave for now ( WP:AGF). 2600:1000:B12E:6EAB:C450:312:33CE:E5 was blocked 1 week for evasion by DUCK. Mark for close.— Bagumba ( talk) 23:03, 17 November 2015 (UTC) reply
