Possible sock of user previous blocked for similar behavior; mass image "updates", as with Emmy Expert, and to many of the same articles. New images are not necessarily more recent, however, which somewhat contradicts Emmy Expert's m.o. — TAnthonyTalk 16:21, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

- Clerk declined - We can't connect named accounts and IPs using CU, sorry. GABgab 17:01, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
- There's too much crossover for it to be a coincidence. Both Emmy Expert and the IP editor blocked two weeks. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:27, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

Like Emmy Expert, this new account is changing/"updating" images on articles related to actors and film accolades lists. I think you can see from their contribs that the two accounts are performing similar edits, but it was these changes on the Andrew Robinson (Neighbours) article that captured my attention: Emmy Expert and The Noire Kid. Updating an image the moment a more recent one becomes available or is changed in the subject's infobox. If the behaviour isn't that obvious, please let me know and I'll provide more diffs.

This IP is up to the same Emmy Expert behavior, updating images in multiple articles with no purpose or explanation — TAnthonyTalk 14:31, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- FYI this IP was previously blocked in October 2017 for 48 hours for this behavior.— TAnthonyTalk 22:32, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

IP edits too old. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 10:51, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

Same editing behavior (unnecessary and persistent replacement of Commons images of celebrities with "more resent" versions, with no justification or edit summary) — TAnthonyTalk 17:55, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- FYI, I left a comment on Film Enthusiast's talk page explaining why his/her editing has attracted the attention of a few editors and why updating images can be controversial. He/she has denied being Emmy Expert and has since seemed to begin initiating talk page discussions instead of boldly replacing images. To me this editor seems to be somewhat more experienced with the process of editing than you'd expect from an account created 13 days ago, but I now have doubts that this one is Emmy Expert. However I'm not crazy about the fact that he/she removed the talk page conversation later the same day. — TAnthonyTalk 18:15, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

- I already ran a checkuser on this editor. See User talk:NinjaRobotPirate#EmmyExpert. The behavioral evidence is fairly strong, but it's not conclusive. The technical data was, to quote myself, " Unlikely at best". I would welcome input from a SPI clerk. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 20:50, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

- I don't have a specific request of a clerk beyond the default request that they look at the evidence. I don't know if any of them are familiar with the case, but hopefully someone will offer an opinion. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:06, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
