New user 1sheropen's first edit in January was this which seems unlikely to have been authored by an actual new user. They have continued to edit almost exclusively on higher education topics, in common with College.
These two were first examined as socks in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dahnshaulis/Archive where no behavioral evidence was seen, and no CU done because the master was stale. Now, there's good behavioral evidence; this edit where 1sheropen restores some deleted content from College's user page.
College has complained about off-wiki harassment directed at them. At this point, I'm assuming that's a total hoax intended to distract investigations. They have refused to answer questions about COI they may have with a website of the same name. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:10, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- ST47, should a clerk move this to another case with Mrelving as the master? JavaHurricane 05:03, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
