Yeah, those recent edits of theirs really don't make much sense. Plus, the deletions have no edit reason, so that's another red flag.


Those pages aren't the only questionable edits they've made. This troper has also made similar edits on other pages. Their edit history.

Could a mod check whether Random Dude Dude is a sockpuppet of the ban evader Witch Of The Absolute. Just a hunch and I might be wrong but there edits look quite similar to stuff they've done before in previous ban evasion times such as trying to add yellow diamond of steven universe to the Hate Sink page despite not fitting the definition at all.

Heck see here. They removed the exact same stuff as witch did when banevading under the name Absolute God N Ma

IP addresses are a close match. Sending in the spring board.

All edits by Random Dude Dude to be undone on principle, regardless of legitimacy they would otherwise have?

Yes as that's the policy for ban evaders

However, if there are legit edits, they can be re-added by a legit troper.

It actually seems to come up less often than you'd think, given that most ban evaders are in trouble for consistently bad or agenda driven edits.
