Reason: All these accounts share an interest in tall buildings leading to uploads of pictures where the height and the number of floors is marked in a very crudely fashion. All accounts have been blocked for disruptive editing in multiple projects including en:wp and it:wp. Cccccc4444 has been blocked by User:M7 at it:wp with the rationale Evasione del blocco. Hence it appears that this is a case of long-term abuse as indicated by HakanIST in their lock rationale. As these accounts claim their uploads to be their own works which they aren't, it would be helpful to see if there are more socks behind this. If the most recent account Ttttyyy 535 is indeed connected to this, that account should be locked like the other ones. --AFBorchert (talk) 15:26, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See also File:Central park tower.jpg where Retto654 and Usertttty 345 uploaded one of these pictures was re-uploaded by Ttttyyy 535 as File:Central park tower 472m.jpg. --AFBorchert (talk) 15:31, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That A = B = C is likewise confirmed. The global lock of User Bot 086 56 identifies Matteo sportelli as the master, so I have tagged accordingly. Matteo 270608 is Stale, but also globally locked as a Matteo sportelli sock. Эlcobbola talk 17:36, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This user has been blocked on it.wiki and will be blocked on sight as soon as his behaviour is recognized. Thank you for your effort. --M7 (talk) 20:00, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It didn't take long to see the next incarnation in this zoo: Tower 923 (talk contribs Luxo's SUL deleted contribs logs block user block log ). --AFBorchert (talk) 20:00, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Confirmed, of course, and no new sleepers. Given the distinctive behaviour, these can/should be blocked as ducks without a CU going forward. Эlcobbola talk 15:34, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
