- Weatherscan (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
Weatherscan is currently blocked as a spam-only account. I recommend indef SPI blocks for the other three accounts. No comment on the following:
- Zane jaramillo (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
who is stale for checkuser purposes, and is not currently blocked anyway. This account does not look similar to the others on behavior, so except for having 'Zane' in the name he shouldn't be listed here or even suspected. The accounts with 'TWC' in the name could be making a reference to The Weather Channel. EdJohnston (talk) 18:53, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- Moved to oldest confirmed and tagged. Zane hasn't edited since December, I don't think there's a point in actioning that if they don't start editing again. Closing. --Blablubbs|talk 08:23, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

[edit]- Already noted at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/TWCZack (linked to the most recent CU-confirmed sock). Closing, recommend G6ing this. GeneralNotability (talk) 19:34, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
- @GeneralNotability I'm not quite following the flow here. ST47, you cu-blocked PearZane, but didn't mention who they're confirmed to. Should they be merged into the TWCZack case? -- RoySmith (talk) 00:16, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- RoySmith, I asked ST47 on IRC who the PearZane's master was and they said it's TWCZack. I could have been more clear; I meant that Zane jaramillo's existence was noted at TWCZack. I figured that ST47 had a reason for not tagging PearZane (even if it's just DENY), which is why I didn't recommend merging. GeneralNotability (talk) 00:26, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Um, unless there's some strong reason not to, I'd like to go ahead and tag them and merge the cases. Doing so will aid future clerks by increasing the size of the edit pool to analyze for patterns. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:31, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

- I merged the Zane jaramillo case with the TWCZack case, so that there is a record of this PearZane account. I think this can be archived now. Mz7 (talk) 20:40, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
