It really looks like the same user. The same behaviour pattern was displayed on FR.wiki by {{u|Droas82}} way back in late 2015/early 2016. It took us 6 months to solve the Droas82 issue there. This user has been plaguing these articles since then on EN.wiki. Without a strong stance, you will have to deal with him/her for a long time. Good luck. ] (]) 13:29, 6 September 2020 (UTC) | |||

The account Delfield is clearly the latest episode in the string of sockpuppet accounts of Launabee. Launabee has been banned from editing articles on French academic institutions (. Delfield has been making edits to the English language Sciences Po article.
Evidence for sockpuppet-account:
Delfield has been following the content and language pattern of Launabee in a highly conspicuous way. Launabee was recognisable by continuously adding laudatory content about the law faculty of University of Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne. At the same time Launabee deleted positive content about Sciences Po and added derogatory content, specifically about the Sciences Po law school. While doing so, Launabee demonstrated a distinctly French-sounding English grammar and made mistakes with his wording.
Delfield fits into the exact language and content style of Launabee. Delfield even used some of the identical phrases as Launabee. The following are just a few examples of many:
Delfield writes: (https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Sciences_Po&diff=974153935&oldid=966898648)
"2008, partly as an answer to the announcement of the creation of a "law school" in this new meaning in Sciences Po, University of Paris II Panthéon-Assas, created a "law college" (undergraduate level) and then a "law school" (graduate level) on top of its faculty of law to attract top students in France (see the disambiguation page, second meaning). It was widely reported in the media as the creation of a "way of excellence in law" for "brilliant students"."
Launabee wrote:
(https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Law_school,_college_of_law_or_academy_of_law_in_France&diff=974366825&oldid=706723576)
"Panthéon-Assas University being the top faculty of law in France, medias called even more this law college and school "way of excellence""
Both use the same citations. The same language.
If you compare the editing history of both accounts, the similarity is striking:
(https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Special:Contributions/Launebee&offset=20171002173105&limit=500&target=Launebee) (https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Special:Contributions/Delfield&offset=&limit=500&target=Delfield)
If more evidence is needed, I can easily give more examples. I take the nature of these investigations seriously. This is not a lighthearted accusation.

Hello,
I improved the article created by other users, I used their sources and those of other articles. I also copy pasted some useful information from an article to another. It obviously does not mean I am the same user than the other contributors whose work I use.
MePhisto is a one-purpose account oriented on making advertisement on Science Po with other accounts (it is why I ended up making much edits on that page and asked for a protection https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_page_protection/Rolling_archive&diff=prev&oldid=920447245 ). I tried to talk to him on content in talk page and find a consensus, but he never once talked about content but only resorted to a "you have the same opinion than an other account, and are not a native-speaker either, so you are him and you should be banned" argument: https://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Sciences_Po .

Besides, one can wonder if MePhisto does not do POV pushing through IP adresses (he only has a few edits on Sciences Po but there has been long history of IP POV pushing as ONUnicorn says here https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_page_protection/Rolling_archive&diff=prev&oldid=920447245 . I see indeed that CLCStudent reverted an edit made by an IP and corresponding to the content of MePhisto here https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Talk:Sciences_Po&diff=974863796&oldid=974863772 but that MePhisto just added the title back https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Talk:Sciences_Po&diff=next&oldid=974863796 .

It really looks like the same user. The same behaviour pattern was displayed on FR.wiki by Droas82 way back in late 2015/early 2016. It took us 6 months to solve the Droas82 issue there. This user has been plaguing these articles since then on EN.wiki. Without a strong stance, you will have to deal with him/her for a long time. Good luck.
