Suspected sockpuppets

195.225.189.243 is, as of November 22, 2023, blocked from editing article space for three months, so their use of a different IP to carry on the same disruption as before is not permitted.

195.225.189.243 tended to make three types of edits, examples from their last 50 edits.

  • Unsourced trivia, for example this, this and this.
  • Unsourced dates of birth for living people, for example this and this.
  • Adding "notable_works" field to infobox, see for example this, this, this and this.

84.69.68.199 exhibits the same behaviour.

  • Unsourced trivia, see this
  • Unsourced date of birth, see this
  • Adds "notable_works" field, see this and this,

More obviously, there's multiple attmpts by 195.225.189.243 to add "British" to James Nesbitt (despite James Nesbitt#Personal life stating he holds both British and Irish passports). This h9as been repeated here by 84.69.68.199, with an edit summary saying "He is still British law, please DO NOT change to from Northern Ireland without evidence of some kind or form" which suggests prior knowledge of objections to the edit.
