The most recent account, Until1921, created from the master account Arthur Brum, is a WP:DUCK of HistorianM, recently blocked by the administrator DrKay. The editor edits articles of the same themes of recently blocked accounts and insists on promoting edit wars ([1], [2], [3]). For more information, see this sockpuppet investigation.

What the? War? I just tried to complement the infomartion on the article, since I'm an historian and very fond of the Brazilian political history. If my edits aren't good, warn me. And if I'm not mistaken I didn't broke the three edits rule, and also awaited a day to re-edit the article. I'm well aware of the site's rules. And who the hell is Arthur Brum?

  Administrator note I think we need more direct evidence: Theryx7 is stale and if this was Arthur Brum, it should've been picked up in the previous checkuser sweeps. DrKay (talk) 16:21, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Switched to checkuser-requested. Collebud88 would not have been stale when I last checked, but I could have missed it. An account that edited nearly every day up to a few months ago, then didn't edit at all until two days after the last set of socks were blocked, with topic overlap that might not be coincidental. I'm not familiar with Theryx7 and that case is five years old. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:13, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • No evidence has been presented. Nonetheless, I checked based on Ivanvector's request. Collebud88 is   Unrelated to the non-stale socks in the archive. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:23, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  •   Additional information needed - Chronus,   Clerk declined. In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
  1. At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
  2. At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
  3. In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this. Cabayi (talk) 10:06, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cabayi: Please, see this, this and this. DrKay can confirm. Chronus (talk) 10:20, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Chronus, that's 3 image changes on a page that contains, by my count, 86 images. There doesn't appear to be any link or theme connecting the changes. Waiting for DrKay's input before closing. Cabayi (talk) 11:02, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cabayi: Did you see this? Chronus (talk) 11:09, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  Blocked and tagged I've blocked on behavioral evidence: for example, this edit on an obscure article is very similar to known sock puppets:[14][15] and the master account[16]. And this edit adds the same template as this one. DrKay (talk) 11:13, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@DrKay: In addition to what you mentioned, the user's edits on Brazil and the unsubstantiated attacks made against me (here and here), are further evidence that this is the user of always abusing of multiple accounts. I haven't even edited in the last few months. How a "newly registered" user, but who claims to edit since 2011 (???), can attack me out of nowhere like that?

The YourAverageSophos is the new WP:DUCK of Arthur Brum. Also investigate Horcoff, Fbergo and Ciro Lyndo, semi-dormant accounts that appear here suspiciously only to make reversals or doubtful/minimum contributions in similar articles , as "Arthur Brum" tends to create multiple accounts. For more information, see this sockpuppet investigation. @DrKay, Drkay, Ivanvector, and Sir Sputnik:, again, please. 2804:14D:5C87:8A5E:B45F:922F:660C:E942 (talk) 21:09, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Blablubbs: Identical writing style and thinking when writing the user page:(here and here). Typical surveillance in articles about Brazil. Accounts editing Itamar Franco article - although he is a former president, has had no relevance in the country for any subject: (here, here). I have reason to be suspicious on account of the strange behavior of these accounts in general. Many accounts only edit here, on average, once a week, as if watching - dormant accounts that pretend to be active. There seems to be use of different accounts to perform single-purpose tasks, such as the Horcoff account that performs 95% of editions on Brazilian football, but suddenly deviates to edit an article by a radical far-left politician like Marcelo Freixo or about a radical far-left youtube channel called Meteoro Brasil. These are typically strange behaviors. 2804:14D:5C87:8A5E:B45F:922F:660C:E942 (talk) 20:30, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    2804:14D:5C87:8A5E:B45F:922F:660C:E942, the diffs you link show individual edits by these users; in order for me to endorse any action in this case, you have to tie them to the master or previous sockpuppets of the master, or at the very least to each other. I'm sorry, but SPI is severly backlogged and I simply don't always have the time and energy to go through the contribution histories of the socks in the archive to establish a connection myself. On a sidenote, can I ask whether you are the same person as Chronus? Thanks. --Blablubbs|talk 20:57, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Blocked, tagged, global lock requested. There is no Meta message on this SPI but there should be because every sock I've looked at is glocked. Closing. Bbb23 (talk) 23:59, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
