WP:DUCK (and hence blocked), but this NEEDS a search for other sleepers (so that is why I did not see new accounts coming up). Dirk Beetstra T C 05:47, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

very similar in edits to above socks. --Dirk Beetstra T C 12:40, 18 March 2019 (UTC) Dirk Beetstra T C 12:40, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
@DeltaQuad and Berean Hunter: is there anything more thorough we can do to see any alternative accounts, Amanda did not see any other accounts while this one was active at the same time. PeavyEavy has been active since about 9 cases ago and always escaped notice, and this one is active for 6 cases. This plainly suggests that there are about 5 (if not way more) other accounts active at this moment. --Dirk Beetstra T C 12:20, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Dirk, I can find about twenty different IPv4 ranges that have been used in about eight months time and that may not be the limit of those...IPv6 is also being used in disparate ranges. Socks/sleepers are being found in ranges used by the socks that you are presenting and checkusers are not missing them in the ranges where they appear. Multiple UAs are also being used. Going through all previous ranges for each sock reported is not practicable.

@Berean Hunter: thank you, I was afraid of that - I am aware that they have access to multiple IP ranges. The checkusers may want to consider to use special:AbuseFilter/639 if there are IP-edits on the ranges that are clearly by the socks.
- Hortonwhoyou - quite likely based on edits only
- Wereth11 - username likely (he is not a big fan of User:Werieth ...). No edits to go by.
- Blackblight - only 4 edits, 2 of them typical. Thin evidence, but quite possible/rather likely.
- Nelliejellie - absolutely on mulitple parts of evidence
- YoungGodfather1979 - not enough evidence, questionable based on cross-wiki edits (not impossible).
- Nicolasmakadeli - not enough to go by, I would question this one.
- ElCaudilloDeCuscatlan - not enough to go by, I would question this one.
- ElCriticoDeLaNostalgia - not enough to go by, I would question this one.
Now, The last 4 appear to be certainly socks of each other, which makes the sum (seen what they have done) a bit more likely to be a sock of Slowking4. The last 4 however have hardly/not edited en.wikipedia, maybe should be checked again in a next round if they continue editing.
However, this again misses the one that I have seen on the 20th.
- Montysuncle (talk · · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · checkuser (log)) - behavioural rather similar.
I'll let the work for now by the clerks, I will assist in wiping anything that needs wiping. --Dirk Beetstra T C 18:07, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
