The usual preoccupation with Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark related articles ([1] & [2], [3] & [4]). As for Shadikk and WHone, here's only a few examples of intersection with previous socks:[5] & [6] [7] & [8], [9] & [10]; [11] [12], [13] & [14], [15] & [16]. Same interest in the same topic areas (Britpop artists, Gary Oldman films, etc). Sro23 (talk) 00:51, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Thanks. I thought that user behaved off, and while I don't doubt it's a sock of some other master, I don't have the energy to think about it right now, so I'm closing this case. Sro23 (talk) 08:30, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Behaving identically to previous sockpuppets, same old fixation on British pop culture and music reviews ([17] [18]). As always, the overlap with past socks is extensive ([19] [20], [21] [22], [23] [24], [25] [26], [27] [28], [29] [30], [31] [32], [33] [34] etc). Same/similar edit summaries too. Given that this account has been around since last year and CheckUser usually uncovers several more accounts, a sleeper check would be a good idea. Sro23 (talk) 07:20, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at wrestler Big Van Vader, TheManTheyCallAdam wrote in an edit summary "There was already a reliable sorce when i added the edit 3 years ago."[35] TheManTheyCallAdam first edited Wikipedia on 6 January 2021. It was Clatson50, a sock of The abominable Wiki troll, who inserted the phrase, in full and sourced, on 12 November 2017.[36] I'm not familiar with the sockpuppeteer but such tenacity in blatant contradiction of the source and article history also seems in keeping.

• Comment - TheManTheyCallAdam admits having a prior account [37]. EnPassant♟♙ (talk) 15:36, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Well, maybe. It's true that their first edit was only about 1.5 years ago, but their account goes back almost 4 years. They might have just forgotten to log in when they made the original edit. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:17, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  The original edit wasn't by an IP, it was by Clatson50, a blocked sock. NebY (talk) 16:22, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I haven't tried to check which socks also edited wrestling articles, but I do see The Wrestling Dude, Thefanofwwe, TheWrestlemaniaKing and more in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/The abominable Wiki troll/Archive/1. But I raised this because TheManTheyCallAdam claims to have added the edit which the sock made. NebY (talk) 16:38, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• I ran some checks. We don't have much data on TaWt, but from what we've got, I'd say TheManTheyCallAdam is  Unlikely. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:53, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I should also add that most of the data is so old, it's probably meaningless, so  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation certainly applies. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:55, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• The reference to an edit from 3 years ago is obviously suspicious. However, the text added by Clatson50 said widely regarded as one of the greatest super-heavyweight professional wrestlers. The specific edit that TheManTheyCallAdam was edit warring over was changing that to widely regarded as the greatest super-heavyweight professional wrestler. I've looked at some recent TAWT socks and they seem much more savvy than this editor (e.g. often using WP policies and jargon in edit summaries - see [38]). I'm not at all convinced that this is the same user. I can't account for the "3 years" thing, but perhaps they were just lying because they thought that would make their edit stick. Also, 2017 was 5 years ago (feel old yet?) Spicy (talk) 16:32, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
