User returned after a year hiatus to comment on an RM started by Ewhite31 [1]
Tirotai has few edits but the three most edited articles are Hawke Scout Hall, Westmere, New Zealand, and Coxs Bay. All of the aforementioned articles have been edited by Ewhite31. One of the first pages edited by Ewhite31 was [2] which added information about the Hawke Sea Scouts.
I think User:HawkeSeaScouts may be related to but is blocked for username vio and hasn't edited for a long time before the block. Traumnovelle (talk) 02:01, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

On hold - @Ewhite31 and Tirotai: On the surface, it sure looks like these two accounts are connected. Before I do anything else with this, let me give you (both?) a chance to explain what's going on here. RoySmith (talk) 01:20, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- I do not hold either of these two other accounts mentioned. I do know who @Tirotai belongs to, and I mentioned in the "real world" what I was working on on Wikipedia to this individual, including Fort Takapuna O Peretu prior to putting in the RM request. Their decision to contribute to the RM discussion was entirely their own, and I did not ask them to contribute. Please let me know if there is further information required to close this sockpuppet investigation. Ewhite31 (talk) 05:07, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'm going to AGF here and assume Ewhite's explanation is accurate. I'm really not seeing anything here beyond two people who are interested in a local scout troop, and I do see some behavioral differences. RoySmith (talk) 14:24, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- I found evidence that would involve revealing personal information that they are different people, although connected as she said. Traumnovelle (talk) 18:24, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- Whatever you found, please do NOT reveal it. Exposing such information would certainly result in you being subject to a block or ban. This car has been closed, no need to reply. RoySmith-Mobile (talk) 18:45, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
