Tony1985sept was blocked by Blablubbs for " advertising and copyright violations – most likely WP:UPE". Among his creations was Draft:Olga Fleming, deleted on 8 October as G11 (my nomination). Suzannah Richmond created an account at 20:22 today, 17 November 2021 and five minutes later re-posted the first part of the deleted text (word-for-word or nearly so); she then added the rest of it (again, word-for-word or nearly so).

UPE sock group. A previous group of accounts have already been blocked and tagged by Bilby based on off-wiki evidence. The two new suspected socks turned up today to move Fretello to mainspace, an article started by sock Allenweiber ( talk · contribs). Mathew313 ( talk · contribs), performed the move (the other edits from the account also give off UPE vibes), and SPA ElleMcF ( talk · contribs) turned up shortly afterwards. Requesting a CU check, as it is likely that there are more accounts in the UPE ring. Pahunkat ( talk) 21:22, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Same behavior, first starting the sandbox ( [2] & [3]) and then blanking it when the content has been moved to draftspace ( [4] & [5]) Always uses visual editing. Nelson Turner were hired on this project to paste pre-packaged material on Fulvio Bonavia. Sleeper check requested along with merge of case as per evidence.

Suspicious account editing only in draftspace and making dummy edits there (wikilinking country names, changing between variations of English). On frwiki they created article Dalia AlFaghal which appears to be an exact translation of an article published some months ago on enwiki by blocked sock Allenweiber, see Special:AbuseLog/31037029. – NJD-DE ( talk) 19:45, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Part of the Zavia345 that is trying to promote their client, Paul P. Momtaz, on multiple Wikipedias, as it is clearly obvious by this creation de:Paul P. Momtaz by Zavia345 himself (banned now).
