Suspected sockpuppets

So ObsessedWithStarship II started edit warring on SpaceX Starship integrated flight test 3 ([1][2][3]), SpaceX Starship ([4][5][6]), Starship HLS ([7]), and Super heavy-lift launch vehicle ([8]). SpaceX Starship eventually had to be semi-protected ([9]). All of them involved saying in some way that SpaceX Starship integrated flight test 3 was a partial failure and/or success was unconfirmed. They were warned repeatedly for edit warring ([10]), and eventually blocked ([11]) per an ANI report ([12]). So anyways I though this was the end of it but then I saw this user doing the same things on SpaceX Starship integrated flight test 3 ([13][14]). Turns out Davidv15123 actually seems to be the sockmaster and did the same things even earlier ([15][16]). Same rationale, same reasons, same edit warring, Redacted II seems to agree that this is a sock ([17]). Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 00:31, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Me Da Wikipedian: WP:REFs and WP:DIFFs are not the same. Diffs do not create a reflist. See also Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SPI/Guide to filing cases.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:38, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • CU is  Inconclusive. There's nothing technicaly tying them together - I can't say that it isn't the same person, but if it is they have a completely different set up for each account. Girth Summit (blether) 12:08, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
