I've blocked the range for clear and obvious spam. The MO is pretty similar to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Royox32 so I'll also take a look at the account separately. Izno (talk) 20:57, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I picked off a few more that are clear spam relative to Hompp, probably the only one of note to this page is Tomy001122 (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki). Wasn't a (clear) connection to the other case. Izno (talk) 21:02, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Izno: I think Tomy001122 might have been a mistake (unless CheckUser info says differently of course): the user's only edit was removing link spam. Their edit was still reverted because the reference tag they removed was originally a proper source but the {{cite web}} URL was changed to a spam URL, but the user's removal of this bad ref tag was still in good faith.

Fair, but the data does say otherwise. Izno (talk) 21:18, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
