- Evidence
EddieMonsoon appears to be one of the most recent set of accounts being used by Jvolkblum to evade blocking. This account was registered a few days ago and started editing actively at just about the same time that User:15ParkRow (one of the sockpuppets on the 3rd Jvolkblum sockpuppetry case) was blocked for sockpuppetry. His first edit, a couple of days earlier, was to create a user page identical the one 15ParkRow had, which happens to have been a copy of a subpage of my user page (nothing wrong with copying, but I don't think the choice of content was a coincidence). EddieMonsoon's other contributions so far have consisted primarily of (1) placing a personal note on 15ParkRow's talk page and (2) adding "citation needed" templates to articles about schools and suburbs near (but not in) New Rochelle, New York, which is Jvolkblum's favorite community (for example, see this diff, this diff, and this diff. There is nothing wrong with identify facts needing reference support, but in the last few days before the account was blocked, 15ParkRow's edits consisted largely of adding reference-improvement templates to articles about (1) other suburbs and schools near New Rochelle (for example, see this diff) and (2) other United States communities appearing on the edit logs for other users who had recently reverted 15ParkRow's edits or added reference improvement templates to content inserted by 15ParkRow or other Jvolkblum puppets (for example, see this diff).
Based on Jvolkblum's history, I expect that additional accounts will be discovered soon.
