Account created 26 November following closure of previous SPI. Immediately creates new draft Draft:Waya Boy (musician) duplicating the previous SM draft without the disambiguator here. Edits the main space article Waya Boy and opposes deletion in the AfD discussion in the same manner as the previous socks and master here. SPA with no other edits at the time of writing outside this topic. Bobby Cohn (talk) 18:28, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Has also uploaded an image to the main article here where, at commons:File:MOO 4589~2.jpg is described as "Own work". I don’’t have a diff for this, but I believe this was the same image uploaded on Draft:Waya Boy, the aforementioned SM's draft. Bobby Cohn (talk) 18:59, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Account was registered on the right ISP to be this user, but the device is different and in a way that makes me think they aren't, and the specific range they're on has more to do with WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Izaaqnewton and WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Ruth Nandera. Based on historicals I don't think it's the former and the latter doesn't have the right behavior (and the user agent differed). Izno (talk) 20:08, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
