Disruptive creation of Akintayo, which Moore edited extensively and has been created at Stephen Akolade Akintayo, Stephen Akintayo, Akolade Stephen Akintayo and probably other permutations thereof. Moore account has an open unblock request and would like to be sure we don't have others lurking, if possible. Star Mississippi 23:30, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- Aware of and had previously blocked Yahayaibrahimagu (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) but I know they're long stale. Just here if helpful in any way. Star Mississippi 23:36, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- Owning that I have just IAR moved it back to draft. As a result I will take no action on the acccount(s). Star Mississippi 01:46, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- Definitely socking somewhere, I'd like a second opinion on Eddymike234's range... based on its location it could very easily be either meat or socking, though honestly both of them could be reasonable reasons to block everyone. Not seeing a slam-dunk match to James Moore but there might be enough to make a connection (again, hence the 2O). (please ping on reply) Primefac (talk) 23:47, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

- James Moore200 is Confirmed to Major Lyte (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki). The technical data is entirely unambiguous. However, if I assume a lot of good faith it it is possible that the data could be explained by a situation where two individuals are sharing the same computer and internet connection, such as at an editathon, an activity that both of these accounts claim to engage in. If this is the case, it would be hard to believe that the other user wouldn't know that they were collaborating with a blocked editor. Behavioural evidence needs evaluation.
- Eddymike234 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) is Possible to James Moore200; note that basically everyone in this area of the world who uses a common device is Possible to everyone else.

- I've blocked Eddymike and the above accounts. Spicy (talk) 04:31, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
- Two minds here. One: I spent some time assessing the remaining user (Major Lyte). I'm could close this. I think if someone wants to assess them further, it can be done in other forums if/when disruption becomes brightline clear.
Two: Spicy's CU results for this case don't make me feel so good about that approach. I really want to AGF too, but "it would be hard not to notice the other one is blocked" is a pretty damning conclusion. Izno (talk) 00:35, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
