WP:DUCK. Fashionqueen23 introduced unsourced material which was challenged. This started a series of socks reverting the challenge:

  • Shotgunpete1
  • Amysummers
  • Justlayton

Note especially the same use of misleading edit summaries by all socks "spelling mistake error", "altered spelling mistake" (twice by two different socks), "clean up", all used to revert edits.

Addendum: after writing the above I realized the account name sounds familiar, and then I recalled User:FASHIONKING17 who got banned for sockpuppetry on Bros. Sure enough, an edit appears on Bros by another similar name User:KINGSANDQUEENS1 who also edits Vivienne Westwood. This is not as clear cut as the previous, but worth consideration.

Edit to Vivienne Westwood, one of this user's main targets, used a false edit summary claiming to be reverting a spelling error and removed maintenance templates [1], similar to previous socks in the recent history of this article. January (talk) 16:42, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I decided to run a check since this user has a history of creating more multiple accounts at a time. There doesn't appear to be any other socks on fortunately. Dancing Fairy 0000 is a  Possible match. Not editing from the same ISP and ranges. Similar UA and region though. Elockid (Talk) 18:06, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • I was just coming to say something similar, although I would say  Possible, bordering on  Likely. TNXMan 18:08, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These accounts are targeting the same two articles as previous socks did, Bros and Vivienne Westwood. Jockeyman1234's only edit [2] is similar to an edit by a previous sock [3]. Irishqueen00000 then edited Bros and Vivienne Westwood in quick succession, six minutes later Wongajascksonsmith edited Westwood with a somewhat misleading edit summary claiming to be correcting spelling mistakes [4], as previous socks have done [5][6].

Ran a check due to history of abuse. Didn't find any sleepers this time. Irishqueen00000 (talk · contribs) and Wongajascksonsmith (talk · contribs) are  Confirmed matches to each other. Irishqueen (talk · contribs) is a  Likely match to those two accounts. Although the data is stale, based on the technical evidence I have saved, it's  Possible they're all related. But factoring in the other evidence, I would say that they are all  Likely related to Saint Arjunkie. Elockid (Talk) 20:44, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

These IPs has been adding and aggressively edit-warring over unsourced material in the Bros article written in poor English with a WP:PEACOCK tone [8][9][10], accusing the editor reverting them of vandalism and referring to other editors as "members". The original account added similar material to the article [11]. The IPs' additions include a disputed claim that their album Push was 7x platinum in the UK, which the original account (see previous diff) and previous socks also added and edit-warred over [12][13][14][15] (edit summary in last diff also contains an accusation of vandalism). Other socks have also accused editors reverting them of vandalism [16][17], referring to them as "members" [18][19]. January (talk) 20:45, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Added User:Craigjackson123 who restored the same material as the IPs with their first edit [20], again referring to other users as "members" in the edit summary. January (talk) 20:58, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Added User:Rogerramjet2012, another new account with a similar edit summary on their only edit so far: [21] January (talk) 07:47, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is  Likely that these two accounts are socks of each other, and  Possible that they are both socks of Saint Artjunkie:

No comment about IP addresses. Suggest considering a very significant cleanup of the article, and possibly long-term semi-protection. Risker (talk) 17:42, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
