Late comment after archiving this case

@Ponyo: @Vanjagenije: @Doc James: User:John Stannie is apparently "Brad Arquette" (possibly another pseudonym) of Wikipedia Services according to this undeletion request at WP:RFU. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:06, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

  •  Clerk endorsed - There are some suspicious similarities in those recreations. Please compare these accounts. Thanks, GABgab 23:17, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The following accounts are  Technically indistinguishable from each other:
  • Sleepers include:
  • The way that these accounts are created, used, and intersect looks like a paid editing operation. As they edited solely through a webhost it's technically  Inconclusive as to whether they are related to Stoubora. --Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 21:09, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • All blocked and tagged as socks of Stoubora. Case closed. Vanjagenije (talk) 22:42, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Doc James: Given the intricate nature of this apparent paid editing case, I thought you might be interested in taking a look at the account creations and interactions.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 22:45, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks User:Ponyo will do. Just finishing up on this case[3]. This family has an interesting technique for adding spams links :-( Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:48, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes being discussed here at the COIN. As is typical of paid socks none of their first edits appear to be those of a new editor. As they will have blocked accounts that we simply have not connected these newer socks to yet I am happy to apply G5 in addition to G11 to those not worked on significantly by others.

Appears they have a habit of than editing the pages by IPs such as

41.114.167.74 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)
41.114.215.29 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)
These are accounts being used to upload the images
