  • I was already investigating LibbieBeautyQueen before I saw this SPI, and it's about as blatant a sockpuppet as I've seen for years, so I've blocked the account and deleted all its editing. Of the others, the only ones which have edited are KeylaBeauty, KaileyKnight, & LaylaBeautyQueen. I don't see enough in the rather small amount of editing from those accounts to prove sockpuppetry, though of course it's possible. However, in view of the history of this sockpuppeteer, which makes further sleepers likely, the fact that we have one definite new sockpuppet, and the fact that there are several more possible sockpuppets, I think a CheckUser investigation may be a good idea.

  • Is it even worth tagging these accounts anymore? They're so duckish they're caught before they even have a chance to edit in most cases.-- Ponyobons mots 19:12, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • As obvious as these socks are, there will always be value in clearly linking a blocked sock to a particular case. You never know how someone previously unfamiliar with a given sockfarm will find it. Tagging and closing. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:18, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here are a couple more from quarry query 67101. ☆ Bri (talk) 03:28, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Clerk endorsed - With all of these accounts registered since the last check, it's probably worth looking to if they have any more. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:23, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Likely to the previous accounts, and very ducky. Don't see any other accounts. Girth Summit (blether) 09:57, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
