User Kuyi123w was indef blocked for disruptive editing and a complete failure to respond to editors raising concerns on his / her Talk page. This IP editor began editing following that block, continuing precisely the same sorts of edits as Kuyi123w. Specifically, Kuyi123w had been focusing recently on female boxers, e.g. Theresa Arnold and Alicia Ashley, to name two of a score or more. A typical edit was to add portal information - often generic and in the form of a bar at the bottom of the page - Arnold and Ashley, again just two examples out of many. The IP editor is making the same sorts of edits to the same sorts of pages - Ashley again and Nicola Adams.
No checkuser required - the behavioral evidence is quite clear. JohnInDC (talk) 15:10, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Every edit by this editor save one is to a page edited previously by the puppetmaster (most notably, List of female boxers), and restoring in at least one case edits by the master, here; IP is in the same general geographic location as prior blocked sockpuppet IP.

I blocked the IP for one year and tagged it. I also tagged the master as they had not been tagged before. Now there are at least two puppet IPs, we should keep track.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:12, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
Virtually the only edits by this editor have been to restore edits by the original puppet master. All but one, Ernő Rubik, were edited by the original master. IP geolocates to the same place as prior socks. JohnInDC (talk) 03:09, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Same edits to the same pages; same IP range as prior socks. JohnInDC (talk) 19:58, 12 May 2013 (UTC) JohnInDC (talk) 19:58, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Account created on the heels of most recent IP block. This new editor has edited several of the same articles edited by the master, e.g. Laura Chiatti, Prize Cento, Maria Cuffaro - an idiosyncratic list unlikely to be visited coincidentally by a different person. Like the master, this puppet also has added several poorly phrased passages that appear to be translations from the original Italian, and creates articles using non-existent categories.
Behavioral evidence is sufficient; requesting CU to check for sleepers by this determined puppet master. JohnInDC (talk) 13:33, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

Should be pretty obvious. Has added poorly translated material to an article about some Italian celebrity here, and has been repeatedly warned of creating articles about non-notable subjects, like Kuyi123w. Has also apparently edited under the IP which has made similar edits, as seen here. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more IPs out there. SamX‧☎‧✎ 23:43, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Editing overlaps at at least Maria Cuffaro and Susanna Cutini. IP range identified above seems to be in the same range as prior socks too. JohnInDC (talk) 23:58, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Same characteristics as prior IP puppets: Unsourced entries in fractured English, e.g. here and here; same articles, e.g. Maria Cuffaro, Alessia Merz, Lorenzo Sebastiani. IP also appears to be in the same range as prior socks. I am guessing that the rangeblock entered after the most recent report has expired. JohnInDC (talk) 03:46, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Identical edit to Maria Cuffaro as prior socks (suspected puppet, sock, sock); lengthy entries in questionable English, here. IP range is the same as prior socks as well. Previous rangeblock should still be in effect - not sure how this one slips through. JohnInDC (talk) 10:50, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Same kind of unexplained edits as other socks - removal of content (for example); focus on same pages; same IP range. JohnInDC (talk) 03:29, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Clerk endorsed. The IP is obvious based on behavior and based on its location from previous reports. There is sufficient evidence to block the named accounts, but I'd like to confirm the relationship and see if there are any sleepers. The master created this page, an article about an Italian mineral water company. User:Fuschetto created this page, an article about mineral water with a Bibliography section pointing to an Italian book. Both articles, as JohnInDC points out, contain non-existent cats. On November 17, User:Bini098765 created Cuffaro, a surname page, which lists Maria Cuffaro, which was then edited by the IP on November 19 here. Ironically, the IP was making a constructive change to the article (I've since implemented the change), but it was misunderstood by others. Nonetheless, it is the same article that has been edited (unconstructively - adding non-existent cats) by the master and confirmed sock accounts (sometimes constructively and sometimes not).
We need to decide what to do about the reported IP, because there is a history of IPs in this range, some of which have been reported and blocked, some of which have been blocked for short durations, some longer, and I believe a range block at one time, but I don't know the limits of the range. In the last report in October, Shirik said "Furthermore, the range is too active to make an effective rangeblock without substantial collateral damage."--Bbb23 (talk) 19:48, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
