I'm not sure Meltpees is related to Shewasafairy but prior to their recent activity here on en, their only other activity was on Commons to upload
File:Brands Impact logo.jpg back in 2019. Brands Impact is a PR company and their activity here suggests UPE along with others. For example, they edited
Draft:Lifeplus, which was created by declared paid editor Erika Mayer. They then recreated it mainspace
[1]. An NPP reviewer moved it back to draft as
Draft:Lifeplus 2 since it was duplicate then redirected it to
Draft:Lifeplus. As noted above the same with existing draft
Draft:Etf.com created by Fauxkallax and the article/draft has a
history of UPE and also
Draft:Cindy Lin created by Mneme, which was draftified to
Draft:Cindy Lin (author).

I don't really have much experience with socks, so I don't think I can offer too much. Though TBH I think (in my very biased opinion) that MeltPees can probably be blocked for DE if nothing else until they learn to use the move button like they're supposed to at least.

Well I'm adding Johnofmars, who I notice recreated
PropertyLimBrothers, which was tagged and moved to draft by Alpha3031 (you see, you've got a natural talent for this), where it was worked on for tone by MeltPees
[3], 2 hours after the maintenance tags were removed by an anon sock:
[4]. MeltPees was also the lone "keep" !vote at

I think it's probably mostly that CORP articles have a higher density of UPE compared to other topic areas. I should probably try and pick up some more behavioural cues, though IDK what the best way to do that is. Maybe just exposure would do it. In other news, it seems that MER-C has blocked most of the participants for
Whiteshield (Del Amol Banora (

Connecteam (Prhinohoursers (

Added DesignatedOcelot, SPA created 22 May. Seven minutes after creation, blued their user page with a user tutorial template (false, not done). Three hours later created
Draft:Giacomo Segre in four edits. Three hours after that, draft moved to
Giacomo Segre by MeltPees.
