 * Suspected sockpuppets

On March 18, created a positively biased article about a former mayor of Spallumcheen, British Columbia, Guenter Rieger. Later on March 18, created a disparaging article about the current mayor Will Hansma which included links to hoax websites purporting to be the township's official site. That same site was used in the original version of the Guenter Rieger article. has now been perm banned for disruptive behaviour, however has started the same link spamming evident on the banned account.

Given that the accounts were created so closely together and have been SPAs that exhibit the same POV, and now are showing the same MO I strongly suspect that these are sock puppets.

As the attack pages on Will Hansma are a potentially serious BLP issue, I would also suggest that a checkuser would be appropriate to identify any further aliases.
