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. {{U|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 {{U|Sagaciousphil}}, {{U|Hafspajen}}, {{U|Favonian}}. Admins and editors who have recently blocked and reverted include {{U|Graham87}}, {{U|GB fan}}, {{U|DVdm}}. [[User:Drmies|Drmies]] ([[User talk:Drmies|talk]]) 17:28, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
