This case is being reviewed by Sro23 as part of the clerk training process. Please allow them to process the entire case without interference, and pose any questions or concerns either on their Talk page or on this page if more appropriate.
Awaiting administrative action -
Looks like a duck to me. The new account has been removing more or less the same content using similar edit summaries ("Reverted to earlier edit" vs "Reverted to original edit"). Please block the sock. Sro23 (talk) 23:13, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Both editors have made the same edit on the same page Sino-Indian War. This account was created recently after the other account was blocked for a few weeks because of constant disruption. Looks like a WP:DUCK Adamgerber80 (talk) 15:42, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Special interest in 1984 page, style of edit summaries, attack mode.
The SPI of Goosemuffin last time came out negative, But it would be useful to check the CU results of Goosemuffin with these 2 accounts as well, in case these 2 are not related to Wikiexplorer. thanks. DBigXrayᗙ 21:49, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
