Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
CheckUser requested - The interaction between the two users is highly unusual. First, there is intersection on many, many pages. Second, as the filer points out, both edit Rxsxuis's sandbox. Third, they collaborate on new articles, with one using the mobile platform consistently and one not consistently - and, yet, the one not using the platform does use it other times. However, fourth, Dushnilkin responds to almost every comment on their Talk page, where as Rxsxuis responds to none. And, finally, Dushnilkin left a warning on Rxsxuis's Talk page about vandalism back in April of this year, and had a dispute with them on an article Talk page. A check is needed to sort this out.

- I'm closer to this being 2 people collaborating than I am to 1 person. There's no slip ups in the data and they're on different ISPs. And their flavor of mobile device is different. Geolocation is the same country. I see nothing particular to indicate other misbehavior either, so I wouldn't block for any of this. Izno (talk) 00:06, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Based on Izno's comments, closing with no action. Bbb23 (talk) 00:56, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
