Both show an editing pattern of only editing Jack Ninte (record producer) and related articles. Both have poor English and poor wiki-knowledge. One got blocked, then the other registered and started editing. –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:14, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Mz7 (blocking admin), would changing your block of Sarahkenny12340 to a hardblock help stop socking? –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:14, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

- @Novem Linguae: The block of Sarahkenny12340 is already a hard block actually (in the sense that it autoblocks the underlying IP address as well). However, the autoblock only blocks the last specific IP address that the Sarahkenny12340 account used; if the user hops to a different IP, they can still evade the block.

Single purpose accounts dedicated to promoting [Jack Ninte (record producer)] Sarahkenny12340 is already blocked indef, so the others would be block evasion. MrOllie (talk) 13:19, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry, I opened this with twinkle and didn't notice that one of the accounts had already been reported! - MrOllie (talk) 13:20, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment There's a strong possibility that these accounts are connected to User:JackNinte, who was blacked last year for promotional editing by HickoryOughtShirt?4 last year. Another, likely stale, account is User:Ninte2020. Best, GPL93 (talk) 17:27, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Mz7: I published this as you were closing but there may be an older account that is actually the sockmaster. Best, GPL93 (talk) 17:30, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Looks like a duck to me.
Blocked and tagged, closing. Mz7 (talk) 17:27, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- @GPL93: Good catch! Those are also clearly related per WP:DUCK:

- Ninte2020 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- I have retagged all accounts in this case as socks of JackNinte. I will also go and check whether the pages these accounts created may be deleted under WP:G5.
Clerk assistance requested: Please move this case to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/JackNinte. Mz7 (talk) 17:33, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- Case moved, closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 22:42, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Recreation of page for Jack Ninte at Draft:Jack Ninte (Moroccan Record Producer) to avoid SALTing at Jack Ninte. Seems to be pretty loud quacking. RA0808 talkcontribs 22:32, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

SPA focused on getting non-notable record producer Jack Ninte into the encyclopedia. Check editing history to confirm. Same MO as other JackNinte socks. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:10, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

- Cross-wiki with Commons and arwiki. Not quite lockable, I don't think, but I'll refer to a Commons admin and ask around for an arwiki one. Archiving. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 04:22, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
