Same odd fascination with PERM (Ext Confirmed) and RFPP
Same poor command of English - the 'tortured' English is almost identical

Clerk endorsed: Propaedia is already blocked, given the history of sleepers a CU check be worth here. Behavior evidence (1, 2) is compelling in case of Micropaedia, please indef it. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 05:58, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty obvious 'duck' comparing to contribs/behaviour of very recent previous socks. Requesting CU to check for 'sleepers'. Thank you. Begoon 03:23, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk endorsed - Given the master's previous use of sleepers, their urge to right the world's problems, and their recent levels of activity, a check for sleepers looks worthwhile despite the last check only being a couple of days ago. Cabayi (talk) 12:28, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

More obvious ducks. Requesting CU to check for 'sleepers' as in previous cases. Begoon 14:05, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I really don't see how those are socks. If they are though, can we start up an LTA page for him? Rockstonetalk to me! 07:13, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The intersection in article edits on unlikely topics with previous socks in such a small number of edits and the trademark 'broken Engish' is unmistakable to anyone familiar with this user. I would be astonished if I'm wrong, but I guess it's possible. -- Begoon 11:18, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmed with respect to the named user(s). No comment with respect to IP address(es). The account is Blocked and tagged. No sleepers immediately visible. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:04, 4 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, noting that I don't think creating an LTA case page makes sense here. He's annoying, but I wouldn't put him as an LTA and give him the attention. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:07, 4 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
