Recreation of Jerry Bremner [1] and Chad Harden [2], both were deleted by Kww.

Interested in "Stampede",[3][4] just like previous suspect.[5] Don't forget the Calgary factor,[6] it also exists within this account.

Contribution history is highly incosistent. Edits from 2010, then one from 2014, resumed editing from 6 April 2015. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 14:28, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Calgary factor" means the heavy relationship with the things related to Calgary. Speaks not only his geolocation but even usernames were related with Calgary. These articles[7][8] and files[9] are also related to Calgary. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 16:05, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

After spending so much time in sock puppetry, anyone would know that they should write differently. What happens is that they never stop pushing the same point of view. That was back in 2010 when he had created these articles, today it is 2015, it is obvous that there would be more information about these people today.

@Vanjagenije: Recreation of same articles and having focused on Calgary Stampede, is enough for confirming the sock puppetry. Azviz was not his only account, these articles were created through other socks. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 22:30, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk note: Azviz and all his socks are Stale, so CheckUser can't help. We have to deal with this through behavioral investigation. @OccultZone: what's "Calgary factor"? I'm calling an admin to compare new versions of Jerry Bremner and Chad Harden with deleted versions previously created by Inniverse. Vanjagenije (talk) 15:50, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanjagenije: Both articles created by the master are short stubs. Both recreated by the puppet, as you can see, are much more extensive.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:07, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk note: I don't see enough evidence of sockpuppetry here. I found only one article that was edited by both Billymelville and Azviz ([10]), but I did not find any suspicios edits. I think this should be closed as inconclusive. Vanjagenije (talk) 15:08, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
