I believe User:PatPeter is using User:Sox207 as a sockpuppet. See also: Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#Policy_question. these links to WP:AN and WP:AN/I archives show a markedly similar pattern. Some lengthier discussions:

It's notable that Sox207 started editing when PatPeter stopped editing, and even has edited PatPeter's subpages (last edits of each: here and members page here; and this would seem to clinch it.

Though I think editing pattern, user tone and word usage in communication, and the stopping/starting of editing may be enough for the WP:DUCK test, I would like confirmation from checkuser. - jc37 19:49, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See User talk:PatPeter/User nocatdeclaw, for another near confirmation. - jc37 09:16, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
See also User_talk:Woohookitty, where Sox207 is talking about PatPeter as if they're a different person, but curiously supporting all their userboxes, including ones transcluded nowhere else and hence probably unknown to anyone else on Wikipedia. Orderinchaos 02:55, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
