Casseykay joined 4 hours ago just to back that user, highly suspicious for a sock or at least coordination. Both users have now reverted the article 4 times in 24 hours (17 April 2024), and have explicitly denied they are the same account on their talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Casseykay
So if checkuser finds them to be the same user, there has also been a clear attempt to mislead the community. Metta79 (talk) 11:49, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Looks like they are either the same person or knew each other. Gabrielasirwatham is also a newly created account, possibly a sock of older temporary accounts, e.g. Gladironctchtd (blocked as a sock of Apeexterminator) or Machu23 (e.g. [7] and [8]) and likely more since edit-warring on the topic has been going on for some time.

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments[edit]
- Checkuser found that Gabreielasirwatham and Casseykay are Unrelated. Still, due to the apparent nationalist edit warring and general concern about socking I've put indefinite WP:ECP on the article. This protection could be lifted in the future if it seems the edit war is over. I would suggest that this SPI case can be closed, since neither of the named editors will be able to edit the protected article for some time. EdJohnston (talk) 03:46, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
