 * It looks like the user was editing and then registered to create an account. There's no real overlap in the contributions. This isn't so much an issue of sockpuppetry but rather a chance to help educate the user on Wikipedia's manual of style (tone) and sourcing policies. If you could help the user out, it would be much appreciated. Mike V • Talk 22:03, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, Mike. It just struck me as a user performing unconstructive editing (such as adding a what I assumed was a male student as an award-winning female wrestler) and then restarting the pattern with a registered account. Someone surprised me with a message via another social media website asking me to stop editing the Guyer article, so my patience was a little thin. (I figured that my report would be enough for a block without going into the social media issue.) I stay away from reporting things unless they're really clear, but I suppose it's possible that this is an MOS/sourcing issue. Given our odd interaction, I think I will avoid outreach to this user, but maybe someone should. EricEnfermero (Talk) 23:27, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
