| *{{U|ItsLassieTime}} has had many confirmed socks, (see ]), and I've scrubbed quite a lot of the work done by the various accounts, but mostly work done by the account {{u|Susanne2009NYC}}. A couple of days ago I saw an edit summary that made me think of that account. This RO is similar in tone . Yesterday I saw on {{u|SlimVirgin}}'s talk page and it struck me as equally similar. | |||
| *Because I've spent so much time scrutinizing ItsLassieTime's work, , , , , I decided to take a look at ], which RO wrote. I found the source online , and only ten pages in found these instances of close paraphrasing that I posted to the talk page . I also posted to talk ] because the same material is in both articles, but that post got reverted, . I've pinged {{u|Moonriddengirl}} and am pinging {{u|Ruhrfisch}} who also might recognize the style. I did have a fair amount of harassment from ItsLassietime on my talk and might have some old IPs but at this point I believe it would all be stale and we have to go on behavioral patterns. Also pinging {{u|Montanabw}}, who I believe, knows ItsLassietime from one of the other accounts. | |||
| *Less telling, but still are these edit summaries using "oops" or a variation of it, found on a very quick scan of contribs, , and . Thanks. ] (]) 18:33, 19 February 2015 (UTC) | |||

| *'''Comment''' - I don't see a connection here. If you are going to use the word "oops" for example to compare edit summaries that strikes me is a bit bizzare. The rest is just a he said she said argument. - ] (]) 19:40, 19 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
| *'''Comment''' - ILT has been back since the original sock drawer was busted, the sock Hat Act popped up on my radar a couple years after the first bust, only to be re-blocked, and I would not be in the lease surprised to hear this user is still around. A tendency to copy or closely paraphrase is a key trait, as well as a tendency to grab onto a limited, cherrypicked group of "scholarly" sources as evidence and then digging in and refusing to give ground is part of this user's MO. Add to this a lot of wounded feelings and playing the innocent. A tendency to create an online persona that induces sympathy (usually due to a made-up health issue or tragic life circumstances) and to quite tendentiously attack other users who call this individual on their problematic edits are also characteristic traits. In the limited diffs provided here, this does resemble the style of ILT, though at this point it's reasonable suspicion and I think more examples are needed. Also try Wizardman, if he's still around. ]<sup>]</sup> 19:56, 19 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
