The sock's hardcore idol, Thae Su Nyein, has reappeared again. As a Burmese editor, I'm very disappointed with this sockmaster. His new accounts are User:Sunshine1116 and User:အောင်သူရဖြိုး (the Burmese name of Aung Thu Ra Phyo). We should monitor articles like Thae Su Nyein and the ones he previously created. I know he will never give up and will surely create new accounts again if the Thae Su Nyein article is deleted under G5. Thnks. 49.49.24.207 (talk) 06:47, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the report. I didn't get to this until now, but will deal with the report at the WP:SPI case you filed. Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 20:27, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Let me know if you'd like this reported at a noticeboard but User:Brogermandeutsch18 is clearly the same person as User:Yoassoutbro18 who you recently banned. JaggedHamster (talk) 08:37, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Could you make a report at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/AlanCity20? I won't be able to get this till at least the weekend. Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 16:22, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed your block of Fcknyccastro .. there seems to be the same adding French everywhere happening on this new account Blackyoinorange19 and thought you might want to keep an eye on it? Jy Houston (talk) 16:16, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
