Account created in January but first edit on 3 March 2024. First edit is a single detailed copy paste with focus on rape, atrocities, China, interracial - same topics and edit style as Milktaco. Similar food based name. Qiushufang (talk) 03:45, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Adding Candy stoned, another food based name account linked to Milktaco that made similar wartime sexual atrocity content on the same page. Qiushufang (talk) 22:13, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- See similarity between these edits [1][2] (rape of Yulu's daughters). Qiushufang (talk) 22:32, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Adding Cooking canner, another food based name focused on China, race, interracial relationships. @RoySmith: - would it be alright to have a second look at these accounts. I'm seeing a handful of culinary based names over the past few years all focused on Manchus/China/sexual wartime atrocity with mass copy pasting behavior. Qiushufang (talk) 22:24, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Adding Coravodoa who seems to be the original editor for the content copy pasted by Mango. Qiushufang (talk) 22:35, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Adding Serenebea. Same interests as all the other accounts. Created page for Yulu (viceroy), who was the subject of Milktaco sock Candy and Mango's edits [3][4]. Copy pasted content added by Coravodoa on Yulu. Copy pasted content added by another sock Coumets. Qiushufang (talk) 23:02, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Adding Sodoron. Similar topics, edited Dungan Revolt (1895–1896) like Milktaco [5][6] with mass copy pasting behavior. Made large edits to same page as sock Coumets [7]. Serenebea restored content added by sock Coumets. Sodoron, Coumets, Serenebea have all edited and disseminated the same content. I just realized Coumets was not confirmed to Milktaco but is still a sock reported on their SPI. Qiushufang (talk) 23:02, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
There is a pattern of long term additions on the same subjects by accounts that all reference and add on to each other but are only active for a couple of months at most. Coravodoa, Candy stoned (Milktaco sock), and Cooking canner each made large additions to Manchu people in 2021 2022 2023 respectively. Coravodoa has heavy matches with Milktaco's interests [8]. Mangopapayafruit copy pasted Corovodoa's content [9][10]. Serenebea, Candy stoned, and Mangopapayafruit just happen to all have the same interest and edited content related to Yulu [11][12][13]. The number of times each account references or builds on top of each other is too much to count. Qiushufang (talk) 03:29, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

- Sodoron and Coravodoa seem rather likely, considering what I have seen of Milktaco's editing style and preoccupations. Wouldn't surprise me if there was WP:MEAT with slightly different editing styles going on with the others. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:16, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

- Check declined by a checkuser - I'm having trouble understanding "same edit style" when all they've done is copy-paste some text from another article. Historically, this case has had a ton of socks, but I'm hesitant to run a check just based on what I see so far. The repeated edit-undo-restore pattern doesn't match any Milktaco behavior I'm familiar with, but if you know of any other examples of that, please ping me. RoySmith (talk) 18:25, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Wizardly397 exhibits a pattern similar to Milktaco's repeated behavior of successively copy-pasting material targeting non-Han Chinese ethnicities across several different articles shortly after creating a throwaway. For a recent precedent, please see the recently blocked Milktaco sockpuppet Crucatius (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), who engaged in a similar behavior: Both targeted Muslim ethnic minorities in China, and both edited Islam during the Qing dynasty.

Definitely a Milktaco sock. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 18:37, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

- I checked but found nothing (nothing but a VPN, apparently). I can see the similarities with Crucatius and others, but I'm no expert on this sock and I'm a bit hesitant to push that button. RoySmith, are you? Drmies (talk) 15:39, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Drmies Based on some notes in cuwiki and edits to Christianity in China by both accounts, I'd say there's a very good chance Wizardly397 and Eyesacker are the same person. RoySmith (talk) 15:59, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
