– A checkuser has completed a check on relevant users in this case, and it is now awaiting administration and close.

Suspected sockpuppets

I'm not sure why these accounts didn't show up in the previous checks, but the behavioural evidence is obvious: creating drafts on Project Orion scientists with poorly formatted references [1] [2] [3]. Compare to [4] or [5] from previously identified socks. Several of the pages these accounts have edited have also been edited by confirmed socks, see the history of Draft:Charles Clark Loomis and Draft:Ronald Funk Prater.

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

This case is being reviewed by RoySmith as part of the clerk training process. Please allow him to process the entire case (including admin actions against suspected socks) without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on his talk page or on this page if more appropriate.

  • @Callanecc: there's probably enough here to block on behavior alone, but I think a CU would be useful to confirm and maybe pick up more sleepers. I also note DarylBenny (and Spacesuittinman) edited Draft:Bob Duffield, which sounds like Duffieldmax2, and two accounts created the same day. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:33, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @RoySmith: The following accounts are  Confirmed to the master and are  Blocked and tagged:
The following accounts are  Confirmed to each other and  Possilikely (a mix between possible and likely) to this master (they are blocked but not yet tagged as  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation):
 Checkuser note: For the future, there are other accounts which could be related but I don't have enough evidence to know for sure so it's worth requests CU in future cases. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 10:13, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Callanecc, You've got AppleMelon888 in both groups, so I assume that transitively makes the later group also confirmed to the master? If you agree, I'll go ahead and tag them as such and close this. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:56, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
