Quitestreams: The set of articles edited by new user Quitestreams (talk · contribs) are exclusively articles also edited by banned user Zongqi (talk · contribs). User Quitestreams' edits restore material that had been initially introduced by user Zongqi.

For the article Ikigai, user Quitestreams's edit [1] restores the same section user Zongqi introduced at [2] and vigorously maintained during an edit war, the last attempt being here: [3].
For the article Gogyo, we can see that user Quitestreams's edit [4] restores some of the same verbiage initially added here from user Zongqi: [5]

Green light3: a single-purpose account with a name bearing a hard-to-miss similarity to that of Green cigarette (talk · contribs), with whom user Zongqi engaged in a content dispute prior to his (Zongqi's) account being blocked: [6].

Note that user Green light3's edit [7] at the Ikigai article reintroduces the same error "can not" (vs "cannot") as user Zongqi ([[8]]) and user Quitestreams ([[9]]).

Gonna drop this in here - this is the ANI report I filed against Green light3, inc. relevant diffs, to save time in digging them up. It's pretty clear they're a one-purpose account if nothing else. --Ineffablebookkeeper (talk) 11:49, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest that ShodoSuzuki (talk · contribs) and Time to space (talk · contribs) should also be investigated. It is worth noting the similarities between the edits they made on the Onmyodo, Gogyo, and Glossary of Shinto pages and Zongqi (talk · contribs)'s characteristic edits on those pages.--Green cigarette (talk) 12:45, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

CheckUser requested and endorsed by clerk - there's credible evidence that all of the accounts listed here (including ShodoSuzuki (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) and Time to space (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) are related to each other. Given that they appear to be running multiple accounts concurrently, a sleeper check makes sense. --Blablubbs|talk 00:27, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Quitestreams and Green light3 are sequential accounts, and Zongqi is stale. – bradv🍁 01:19, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
ShodoSuzuki is also sequential with the other two, and Time to space is likewise stale. – bradv🍁 01:25, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I edit-conflicted with Bradv while checking this; I'm not sure if Bradv also checked but he didn't update the case status. Based only on my own investigation, Quietstreams and Green light3 are Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely) - they use the same ISP, and each one consistently uses a mobile device with the same OS version but a different browser. ShodoSuzuki is Possible to both based on network and geolocation. There was not enough to go on for a sleeper check, and all of the accounts that I did not name are Stale. I suggest trusting your behavioural analysis for this report. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 01:28, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
