Same focus on road sign drafts, including [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=&user=&page=Draft%3ARoad+signs+in+Macau&wpdate=&tagfilter=&subtype=&wpFormIdentifier=logeventslist recreation] of [[Draft:Road signs in Macau]].

Targeted a number of road signs articles, notably adding the <code>nolines</code> attribute to galleries while also having made meaningful contributions. I've reverted a number of the changes, but not all. These may or may not be the same user, I have included them due to extremely similar behaviour. For the 4th user I had assumed good faith, explaining so on their talk page.

Some of the articles affected (a number of which were previously affected by the same sockmaster):
* [[Road signs in Sweden]]
* [[Road signs in India]]
* [[Road signs in Germany]]
* [[Road signs in Thailand]]
* [[Road signs in Indonesia]]
* [[Road signs in Poland]]
* [[Road signs in Bulgaria]]
* [[Road signs in Estonia]]
* [[Road signs in Israel]]
* [[Road signs in China]]
* [[Road signs in Pakistan]]
* [[Road signs in Mexico]]
* [[Road signs in Portugal]]
* [[Road signs in South Africa]]
* [[Road signs in Sri Lanka]]
* [[Road signs in Singapore]]
* [[Road signs in Austria]]
* [[Road signs in Australia]]
* [[Road signs in New Zealand]]
* [[Road signs in Canada]]
* [[Road signs in the United States]]
* [[Prohibitory traffic sign]]
* [[Comparison of MUTCD-influenced traffic signs]]

Behaviour includes:

* Pointless changes to galleries ([https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Estonia&diff=prev&oldid=1170518962], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Poland&diff=prev&oldid=1167720648], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Indonesia&action=history], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Austria&diff=prev&oldid=1167717835], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Canada&action=history])
* Meaningless explanations for edits ([https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_South_Africa&diff=prev&oldid=1169617023], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Estonia&diff=prev&oldid=1168454483], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_South_Africa&diff=prev&oldid=1169249312])
* One instance of both the above ([https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Comparison_of_MUTCD-influenced_traffic_signs&diff=prev&oldid=1170265404])
* Reverting an instance of my revert ([https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Road_signs_in_Mexico&diff=prev&oldid=1171216982]) [[User:EthanL13|EthanL13]] ([[User talk:EthanL13|talk]]) 22:03, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

*Hi, thanks for checking this out. What does this mean about the IPs, that they aren't related? [[User:EthanL13|EthanL13]] ([[User talk:EthanL13|talk]]) 22:22, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

====<big>Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments</big>====
*Blocked and tagged the named accounts. Will check out the IPs in a bit. [[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 22:08, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
:*Too many similarly named accounts. Adding {{checkuser|Ilovesigns25262}} and blocking in a moment.--[[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 22:11, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
*Blocked Ilovesigns25262. [[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 22:12, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
*The most recent edits by the IPs are from August 15. Closing. [[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 22:14, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
*{{re|EthanL13}} We don't usually block IPs unless the edits are very recent, and those by the IPs you listed are not. I don't need to look at the behavior, i.e., relatedness, if I'm not going to block anyway.--[[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 22:33, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
