Compare these edits that add unsourced d.o.b. and the (in this context) weird phrase "since the (decennium) and (decennium)". There is also some overlap of areas of interest (video games and persons from India) and both are crosswiki vandals editing among others the Georgian Wikipedia. It looks to me to be a vandal with editing experience, and Maillou2992 might not be the original sockmaster. I leave that to admins who maybe will recognize the editing pattern. Sjö (talk) 05:45, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And of course I forgot to add links to the edits I wrote about. Here they are: [1][2]. And I think that you could consider a global block for the block-evading and vandalizing IP. Sjö (talk) 10:05, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk note: Maillou2992 was blocked on es as a sock of DaisyBus2017 who was blocked here as a sock of MuffySeville56 who is tagged as a confirmed sock of SoulMiller90.
Maillou2992 is already globally locked so there's not much to do except the question of whether to move this case. Cabayi (talk) 08:00, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This case is being reviewed by Blablubbs as part of the clerk training process. Please allow him to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on his talk page or on this page if more appropriate.
somewhat long-running and I'm a sucker for good archive trails, so I think a move makes sense. Daisybus2017 is the oldest account. Moving, tagging, closing. Blablubbs|talk 18:50, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Similar name as last sock Maillou2992 and engages in the same kind of vandalism by inserting false information about years, ages or cause of death.[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Both are crosswiki vandals with an interest in deaths and video games which is apparent from their global contributions. Both edit wikidata and both add a welcome to their Spanish user page. [8] [9]

Similar crosswiki vandalism to recent socks Maillou2992 (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) and Caillou796 (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki): changes to dates and causes of death. If you run a checkuser the IP will geolocate to Spain, as the user has also vandalized using a number of IPs. Examples: [14] [15] [16] (death cause). A telltale sign is their changing dates of maintenance templates [17] [18] [19]. Since this is a crosswiki vandal I believe that a global block is in order.

Edits like other socks: adds incorrect years like [22] where a baby killed after a very late abortion is supposed to be two years old. This editor, like other socks, is a crosswiki vandal who inserts incorrect years, ages, causes of death etc. , including on Wikidata.

Similar editing and name pattern, especially obvious when you look at the crosswiki contributions. Adds unsourced dates [25] and clearly incorrect information [26] (at a redirect to a dab page) or [27] (Brazilian criminal buried in Italy, and very unlikely to have been in the military). Especially interested in editing articles about murdered children and recently deceased adults, with the occasional edit about video games.Sjö (talk) 18:46, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Name pattern and editing pattern shows that this is a sock, especially when you look at the global contributions. Edits about, recently dead, murdered children and video games. Edit on PlayStation Move Heroes with incorrect information is typical for the sockpuppets, as is translating an article but using incorrect info, like dates. [29] [30] Please check for sleepers.

Name and editing pattern shows that they are the same. Welcoming oneself is a typical behaviour for this vandal. Even more obvious if you look at crosswiki contributions e.g. https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Murder_of_Marina_Sabatier&oldid=7773547 where they copy an article lede from en.wikipedia but change dates and cause of death.

DUCK based on evidence on simplewiki and Wikidata, noting that they've already been blocked as a sock of LiliaMiller2002 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) (in turn an Angelmunoz50 sock) on the latter.

JakirMiller40 is Likely to Angelmunoz50 via other confirmed accounts.
Gorilla49 is Likely to JakirMiller40
Checkuser note: Wouldn't normally suggest closing 30 August 2021 above with "CU being dealt with in the section below", as it would make things a bit complicated if JakirMiller40 was {{unrelated}} but Gorilla49 wasn't. These are treated as separate reports ~TNT (she/they • talk) 19:59, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Awaiting administrative action to indefinitely block JakirMiller40 per sister-wiki behavioral evidence and likely CU result.
@TheresNoTime: Sorry about that. I went about it that way since the endorsement was just to check for sleepers, so endorsing both sections would have been endorsing the same thing twice. In the future, what would be a better way to handle that situation? -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 20:09, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Tamzin: My suggestion would be to treat each report as a separate entity unless there is actual duplication of reported accounts bear in mind that this {{likely}} result could well suggest adjacent technical data instead of a more concrete match, and thus a sleeper check on JakirMiller40 could have yielded different results to a sleeper check on Gorilla49. Just my two pence, hope it helps! ~TNT (she/they • talk) 20:20, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Similar edits and similar name pattern as recent socks. Inserts false info in an article about a (probably) dead person [38] and creates a redirect from Draft:Murder of Riley Ann Sawyers, a deleted draft created by another sock.

Their first edit was changing a date in a top template, which is typical. The edit was in an article about a murdered child, which is typical. The user name is similar to some of the other sock names ,e.g. WarioMiller40, JakirMiller40 and LolaMiller49. Request checkuser since there are sometimes sleeper accounts.

Obvious interest in deaths, especially dead children. But the best evidence is their Wikidata edits: incorrect and sometimes implausible languages, education or causes of death. Also geolocates to the same area and the same ISP.
