 * Note I have also blocked User:166.248.34.75 for 1 week as an obvious sock/meat account. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 13:50, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * And now User:166.248.43.6. Is there any way a range block could be enacted on the 166.248. range of IPs being used? --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:35, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Add User:166.248.39.126 to the blocked list. Again, any chance of a range-block for the 166.248 IPs? --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:33, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Using WHOIS information, one IP is in Maryland and one is in New Jersey. It's doubtful they're the same person. TN X Man 13:44, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * True; I have a feeling these are friends editing together. It's also possible that these IPs are part of a larger farm, as they seem to be fairly experienced. Either way, they're being disruptive, so they're all blocked for a week. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 02:25, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
