We need another sweep, as newly created SPAs have popped up at Kim Go-eun to add the same puffery Finrell ausi and his various socks had done. ƏXPLICIT 00:40, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Please also check User:Lizzydarcy2008 as they were a sleeper account that activated recently only to add disruptive edits to The King: Eternal Monarch. If not related to Finrell ausi, they might be related to Surozee (also See) or Buckwheatflower. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 22:33, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
From User:Lizzydarcy2008: May I request administrators to review my discussions about The King Eternal Monarch in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:CherryPie94#Reply_to_7th_email_about_The_King_Eternal_Monarch
All I requested for was to make this page not look like another of countless bad press relating to this drama. If you notice, the only other edit I attempted years ago was of a similar nature, when I saw a similar attack on another entity, a negative remark that was not included in pages of other entities that had the same issue. I was a voracious reader of encyclopedias before the internet came along and had expected Wikipedia to have the same integrity. Instead, I am afraid it is being used to blacken entities. As long as the negativity conforms to rules, e.g. verifiable, it is allowed. There is no asking: of all the thousand information about the entity that we are trying to fit into this one page, is that information more important than the other information we are leaving out? Are we being fair to this entity? Is this negative information found in other entities that had the same issue? This is the reason I removed that paragraph. The rest of the conversation was trying to arrive at a compromise - leave the negative paragraph in but employ a less negative tone. In short, try to make it sound more like an encyclopedia than bad press.

- Kimyayun (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- Outdoort (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- From a technical standpoint, these accounts are Possible to Finrell ausi and Unrelated to Buckwheatflower. Mz7 (talk) 06:01, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
- Given the extremely unlikely coincidence of these users editing the same areas as confirmed socks—Dangshinuskevietenese following in the steps of Ionlee in Kim Go-eun (Korean article) and Outdoort following Xebralosangeles and Clipdeals in Kuruvi (Indian article)—I'll be blocking them as
{{sockpuppet|Finrell ausi|proven}}
. I would like to ask for second opinions on Buckwheatflower and the previously marked as unrelated Surozee; technical evidence isn't strong. There is a mountain of socks that was easy to catch, but other showings are poor despite what appears to be a concerning amount of behavioral overlap. A difficult puppeteer to squash?
