Began editing as an established user fully aware of Wikipedia's policies and deep into topics that OccultZone (talk · contribs) was banned by the Arbitration committee for at the end of the case. Editor's first edits were in the space of OccultZone's past socks'. Specifically, Bladesmulti (talk · contribs) at List of asanas. The editor also has extensive contributions to the TFD section that OccultZone was in and acts in exactly the same manner. Given the extensive history of OccultZone's interactions and that Algirical exactly mirroring all the activity, acting on the page of OccultZone's sock and within OccultZone's usual spaces - I have to file this.

- @Vanjagenije: - I didn't open it at OccultZone because I messed up. Pardon my ignorance of it because I thought it was user I am reporting and not the suspected master. Could someone move it if necessary? ChrisGualtieri (talk) 02:38, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- Algircal's first edit is to List of Asanas the same page another sock (named Bladesmulti) edited [1] Edit shows experience with Wikipedia from first edit.
- User jumped right into OccultZone's TFD liking with the first edit to TFD being within 50 edits.[2]
- Editor has used multiple socks in TFD. See [3] which shows OccultZone nominating and supporting with the confirmed socks of Hajme and Bladesmulti. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChrisGualtieri (talk • contribs) 14:47, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- Mike V - Not sure what was with this edit by Habiibil, but this whole thing is weird. I defer to your expertise. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:40, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

- Clerk note: @ChrisGualtieri: Is there any reason this case is not opened at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/OccultZone? Vanjagenije (talk) 22:22, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
- I moved the case. Vanjagenije (talk) 08:45, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- Additional information needed - @ChrisGualtieri: In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
- At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
- At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
- In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this. Vanjagenije (talk) 08:46, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- Clerk endorsed - Per the evidence and previous socking, I am endorsing CU. Note to clerks (including myself): if socking is proven, it might be worthwhile to notify ArbCom by asking clerks how future socking should be reported to them, if at all. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 17:10, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- In progress This may take a little while as there are some other aspects I'll need to review. Mike V • Talk 17:26, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
