All the accounts listed above are  Confirmed to X2821yl (talk · contribs). In addition the following are confirmed:

The technical evidence is clear. I recommend that all these accounts be blocked under the case and tagged as appropriate. In addition, a few of them have made edits and it is probable that all should be reverted. Thanks to User:Bbb23 for filing the SPI, in addition to closing the AN3 complaint and doing many blocks. The responsible editor has been active for months under various identities, judging from admin boards and some edit histories. His interest in math topics is distinctive. The term 'crank' is sometimes used when referring to people who have pet theories in this area. It is natural to use Wikipedia to get recognition for theories which can't get published elsewhere. I hope that Elwoz (talk · contribs) who originally filed at WP:AN3 will keep us posted on any recurrences. EdJohnston (talk) 19:43, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Clerk assistance requested: - Please move case to EAXAE, block, and tag/retag as appropriate. There is a significant de.wiki connection. Some have edits at de.wiki, and some of those are blocked. Because of the cross-wiki abuse, the clerk should consider asking for global locks. Bbb23 (talk) 20:11, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
