WP:CSD. Content fork drafts created and submitted for creation by and about obvious socks of prolific socker : and.

This article has also been previously deleted. See here for edit summaries in creation logs regarding the WP:SPA's ultimate subject matter, guitarist Grayson and associated band Deathworx. This further links the WP:SPAs. I also found this gem in the edit history of a confirmed sock.

The first editor's name and edits, as well as the second editor's edits, both fail WP:DUCK for sock evasion. Too late for CU but DUCK is enough. The drafts should be deleted because nobody other than this socker would create and maintain them. JFHJr (㊟) 00:48, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment: For future reference, take such cases to WP:SPI. Curbon7 (talk) 00:58, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * The users are now too inactive for a CU, I think. Deletion discussion occurs here. JFHJr (㊟) 01:03, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Ah well in that case I suppose speedy delete. Curbon7 (talk) 01:08, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * G5 does not apply at this time when the accounts aren't blocked as sockpuppets. —Alalch E. 23:06, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * My understanding is that as long as the accounts are clearly sockpuppets beyond a reasonable doubt, then G5 does not necessarily require them to have been blocked in a case like this where the accounts have prolonged inactivity. Curbon7 (talk) 23:32, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * And not for lack of trying. Thanks again! JFHJr (㊟) 01:15, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - These drafts may not quite meet the criteria for speedy deletion as G5, which is why we, as the community, should delete them after 7 days discussion as the work of sock farms. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:21, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
