LTA enwiki user who occasionally returns to Commons to make questionable rename requests and category changes on photos of East London. In their first fifteen minutes of activity the account has requested a rename of File:Bonner Road, Globe Town.jpg and changed the text description of File:Virginia Gardens, London Borough of Tower Hamlets, E2 (2404504366).jpg, both things that past sock accounts/IPs have done.
