Potentially a new sockpuppet of a user you blocked in June/2024
[edit]Hi Girth, Sorry to bother you about this but Im wondering if this new editor NoOneElseLovEe is a new sockpuppet of DollysOnMyMind who you blocked indefinitely back in June, when they were found to be a sockpuppet of Giubbotto non ortodosso.
I suspect them because this account was registered the same month that Dolly was banned and almost every single one of their edits relates to singer Chris Brown and on album or singles articles; which is the main the topic of interest for Giubbotto non ortodosso and all of their previous socks such as DollysOnMyMind.
The new suspected sock has also been jumping in to revert, restore and protect false/fabricated material on the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heartbreak_on_a_Full_Moon&action=history that was orignally added by either Giubbotto or one of their socks. Similarly, on another article https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Royalty_(Chris_Brown_album)&action=history they are amending and fixing information immediately after the fabricated information that was originally added by either Giubbotto or one of their socks is removed.

- On Karrueche Tran Instantwatym was vandalizing the article to hide the well documented domestic violence case that had Chris Brown and Karrueche as protagonists. He was also trying to describe Tran as a OnlyFans content creator (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Karrueche_Tran&diff=prev&oldid=1234387832), while she's known for being an actor, not a pornstar. Giubbotto non ortodosso was making fabricated edits to paint Chris Brown in a better light, I'm pretty much doing the opposite work as I'm pulling out his domestic violence cases, the same cases Instantwatym is hiding from his related articles.

- Thank you for bringing up Karrueche Tran because interestingly, a blocked sockpuppet of Giubbotto non ortodosso who went by the username Morce Library added a bunch of fabricated claims about Karrueche Tran to the following Chris Brown album article: Heartbreak on a Full Moon with this edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heartbreak_on_a_Full_Moon&diff=1050537848&oldid=1049423592. Indicating a bias towards this individual and a tendency to include false information on Chris Brown related articles about her. I removed these fabricated claims yesterday but you immediately reverted them here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heartbreak_on_a_Full_Moon&diff=1237030876&oldid=1237017052 to restore/protect Morce Library/Giubbotto non ortodosso edits, while providing a false edit summary that the sources back those fabricated claims.
- Also me adding sourced information to the Karrueche Tran article, which is reported by multiple reliable publications is not slanderous nor is it vandalism. Whether that occupation is notable enough to be in the lead is debatable and subjective. But that is neither here nor there, the issue at hand is you jumping in to protect or restore fabricated content added by Giubbotto non ortodosso or one of their socks (or amend it) while also having a bias towards Karrueche Tran. These are things all in common between yourself and Giubbotto non ortodosso and their socks, which further leads me to believe that you are a sock. Instantwatym (talk) 22:02, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
