Master created 16 Symbols about a patently non-notable marketing company. After the master deleted the speedy tag, the IP came and removed it, and after it was applied again, the sock registered and removed it, with a contest to the deletion on the talk page. The Master and Sock have made no edits other than to this article and its talk page. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:54, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' I didn't created another account. It was another user, though i know him personally. it wasn't me. you may even check the Mac IP if that could be any help.
 * Another user who creates an account for the sole purpose of supporting your article would fall under the definition of a meat puppet. This behavior is also disallowed.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:08, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Admitted meat puppetry; blocked both accounts and the IP for 5 days, which covers the remaining duration of the AfD. &mdash;Darkwind (talk) 10:45, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

I'm checking to see if this is another case of meatpuppetry or a case of sockpuppetry. I noticed that these accounts were created with the pretty much the sole intention of making 16 Symbols (although one created an article at AfC for a similar company), which had been previously deleted at AfD back in May. The editing behavior (one creates the article, another signs up to remove the speedy template) is identical, down to how the article is phrased. I want to get this checked, but either way I'm thinking that this time we should probably block everyone involved. Even if it's meating, the individuals in the past were warned about doing this and given that the content is identical, it's unlikely that they weren't warned about this. However a check to see if it's actually sockpuppetry instead of meating would probably be good. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   11:48, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

 * I've moved the case to the oldest account. The master account and the sock account created an article with nearly identical features. I've blocked the sock indefinitely and the master for a week. Note that Jstdit's edits are stale and would not reveal any checkuser information. The Dscharan account only removed the speedy deletion template, which is too little to go on.
