- Tools: Editor interaction utility • Interaction Timeline • User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
The account was created three weeks after the blocking of User:JungerMan_Chips_Ahoy! ([1], carried out on further CU evidence). The editor edits on the same time zone as the NoCal100 socks.
The edit history has been built via mostly (83%) semi-automated edits. The editor’s career started on 27 May with 106 normal-looking edits in 10 days to edits related to Switzerland (a neutral country for a neutral topic). The editing then pivoted to patrolling recent changes for vandalism, with 572 semi-automated reverts in c.12 different bursts over the course of a month, mostly using redwarn. Having crossed 500/30, on 7 July the editor made their first ever article talk page comments and first ever wikipedia noticeboard comments, with 1 edit each to 6 voting surveys all in the space of 30 minutes, in which the two largest comments related to ARBPIA topics at RSN: [2][3] RSN happens to be the single-most frequented page of the NoCal100 socks when added together. See here [4][5] which compares all identified NoCal100 socks (two lists because the tool has a max limit; see image to right which has been sorted to show the most edited pages).
More broadly, despite having made just 186 mainspace edits, the editor is an expert with four particular noticeboards, all four being the statistical favorites of the NoCal100 socks per the links and table above:
- AE (against me; see this discussion[6] re the connection) (frequented by 17 NoCal socks: Canadian_Monkey, Firkin_Flying_Fox, Two_for_the_show, All_Rows4, Powder_Hound_3000, Bad_Dryer, Here_come_the_Suns, Epson_Salts, Tzu_Zha_Men, Itch_Eye_Bear, I_invented_it's_not_you,_it's_me, Mr._Hicks_The_III, Sisoo_vesimhu, Iric2012, Rym_torch, JungerMan_Chips_Ahoy!, I_am_Dr._Drakken)
- ANI (frequented by 14 NoCal socks: When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten, Canadian_Monkey, Attack_Ramon, Powder_Hound_3000, Bad_Dryer, Momma's_Little_Helper, Here_come_the_Suns, Tzu_Zha_Men, Mr._Hicks_The_III, HupHollandHup, Sisoo_vesimhu, JBlackCoffee52, They_think_it's_all_over, JungerMan_Chips_Ahoy!)
- ANEW (frequented by 18 NoCal socks: Jeff_Song, When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten, Canadian_Monkey, Firkin_Flying_Fox, All_Rows4, Attack_Ramon, Bad_Dryer, Momma's_Little_Helper, Here_come_the_Suns, Epson_Salts, Tzu_Zha_Men, Itch_Eye_Bear, I_invented_it's_not_you,_it's_me, Mr._Hicks_The_III, They_think_it's_all_over, Lovely_day350, LoverOfTheRussianQueen, JungerMan_Chips_Ahoy!)
- RSN (frequented by 20 NoCal socks: Jeff_Song, When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten, Canadian_Monkey, Firkin_Flying_Fox, Two_for_the_show, Dixy_flyer, All_Rows4, Bad_Dryer, Momma's_Little_Helper, Here_come_the_Suns, Epson_Salts, Tzu_Zha_Men, Millmoss, I_invented_it's_not_you,_it's_me, HupHollandHup, Iric2012, LoverOfTheRussianQueen, GoGoTob2, Rym_torch, JungerMan_Chips_Ahoy!)
Other than the above (ARBPIA-related noticeboard comments, and continued occasional streams of semi-automated edits), in the mainspace post-500/30 their manual edits were to almost exclusively ARBPIA topics. The editor turned up at some of NoCal’s favorites:
- Talk:Israeli_settlement (also edited by Mr._Hicks_The_III, Canadian_Monkey, Two_for_the_show, All_Rows4 and Epson_Salts)
- Israeli_settlement (also edited by Mr._Hicks_The_III, I_am_Dr._Drakken, Jeff_Song, When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten, Canadian_Monkey, and All_Rows4)
- Israel (also edited by HupHollandHup, LoveFerguson, Canadian_Monkey, Firkin_Flying_Fox, All_Rows4, Bad_Dryer and Here_come_the_Suns)
- Talk:Israel (also edited by HupHollandHup, Trying_to_reconnect, When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten, Bad_Dryer, Here_come_the_Suns, Epson_Salts)
And a few random pages which NoCal seems to like (this is a selection, I have a longer list):
- Oliver_Stone (also edited by HupHollandHup and JBlackCoffee52)
- Gush_Etzion (also edited by Jennifer_Worth and Canadian_Monkey)
- UN_Watch (also edited by When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten and Bad_Dryer)
- Quora (also edited by Jeff_Song and When_Other_Legends_Are_Forgotten)
There are also similarities of tone/style that I can bring out if helpful. Onceinawhile (talk) 09:14, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Comments by Shrike
Its a retaliatory filing because of WP:AE. Those articles are frequently edited by users that interested in the topic including the filer himself. Some of evidence is anti-Vandalism reverts [7] [8], like was noted the user use semi automated wiki soft to fight vandalism. Also Nocal socks edited many articles so you can take any random user especially if they interested in I/P conflict and say he is a sock because article intersections --Shrike (talk) 14:16, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- The filer first[9] edit was elaborate wiki graph without any intermediary version first edit with no drafts. By using the same logic we could suspect the filer to being sock of someone but that would a a fishing expedition and not appropriate. --Shrike (talk) 16:39, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
Comments by Selfstudier
I do not know enough about process to say whether the editor is a sock of NoCal100. Having had several interactions with this editor, while in theory possible, I find it quite unusual that a relatively new editor be so well acquainted with WP procedures, diffs new to old (there are other examples): 1) an AE filing 2) re WP ABOUTSELF 3) Alert (twice!) 4) Citation style Selfstudier (talk) 15:45, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
