 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

On three separate occasions, User:66.55.168.2 removed the same valid content from the Taylor Dayne article, without a rationale or any edit summary: here, here and here. This user was warned or otherwise questioned about these edits after each violation, here, here and here, but made no effort to explain his/her edits, nor respond at all to attempts at communication. The third and most recent of the warnings was labeled a final warning, and was accompanied by the explanation that that IP would be blocked if it happened again.

Recently, an identical act of content removal, also without edit summary or rationale, was made by 76.93.62.117 here.

The first IP, 66.55.168.2, is traced to Fort Lauderdale, while 76.93.62.117 is traced to Studio City, California, so I do not know if it's one person using a rotating IP, someone traveling, or multiple parties working in concert to vandalize the article, which I've since protected.
