Was recently indefinitely blocked for disruptive edits on anime related articles, has since jumped on another account to request unblock [1], but then changed names altogether to continue editing [2] AngusWOOF (barksniff) 16:12, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Checkuser requested to make certain, and to look for sleepers. For completeness, this list of Oregon IPs and usernames includes some that have already been blocked as socks of TyMega, and some that have been blocked as socks of each other. The non-stale recent activity in the last three months has been from Strawfan, Watdef19, AWtheme, BAWdefault, 47.224.142.45, 97.90.55.226, 68.118.35.90, 156.19.198.138, Voiceoverfan97 and PatrickStewartfan90.

TyMega jumps his block again his block using its IP to add the same occupations of the actors using the term actor and voice actor to several articles including the most recent James Arnold Taylor 1 but his comparison of pattern is everything, the IP also added the same terms without indicating sources that say that one of them appears series and live-action movies 123, although I have reviewed many of the articles that I have corrected at times and deleted these terms, but unfortunately Ty Mega insists on putting them back the same terms in each opening sentence as in previous editions just like his sockpuppet Octoprey, which has the same pattern of edits than the IP I have mentioned. 148.101.43.191 (talk) 21:20, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Stale — JJMC89(T·C) 02:34, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Clerk note: I looked into this a bit more. All of the IPs in the archive geolocate to one small area in south-coastal Oregon. 73.49.197.16 is in Delaware, and does not appear to be a proxy. I agree there's extensive topic overlap, so there may be some connection, but it's apparently not just plain logged-out block evasion (unless they moved). -- RoySmith (talk) 18:28, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Username, except for Mrmcflyman, follows the pattern of previous socks (... + fan). Blocked accounts included for completeness. All of these accounts show disruptive editing activity in the Danny Trejo and Danny Trejo filmography articles, with occasional self-reverts. CU requested to check any sleepers.

I don't think this is necessary, their sockpuppets are already blocked and locked pretty quickly. For example, Default012Google1211 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log· investigate · cuwiki) was reported to SRG within one minute of creation and was locked less than 3 hours later.
