The accounts have been active at the deletion discussions of Syl Tang and HipGuide: Articles for deletion/HipGuide and Articles for deletion/Syl Tang (2nd nomination), offering similar rationales: Similar usernames: generic name + numbers.

 * ("There is RS from Newsweek and New York Magazine...) by Arabbi and
 * ("Clicking the Find Sources Highbeam yields additional RS not cited here, from Entrepreneur Magazine, Knight Ridder Tribune...") by Kerry.
 * Just stopping by to note that I concur with the reporter on this, highly suspicious WP:TAGTEAM behavior when you compare contribs and the behavior at the AfD noms. Behaviorial evidence alone is evidence of meatpuppetry/sockpuppetry, regardless of CU results.  Montanabw (talk) 19:08, 12 September 2017 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.''
 * For the record, I want to note there's now a new user Gladpiefelix in case CU shows anything, given this is a highly visited AfD with the same manner of defenses. SwisterTwister   talk  04:36, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Behaviorally it's quite obvious, even if they've managed to get around CU this time. jcc (tea and biscuits) 16:39, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Syl Tang actually tweeted about the AFD, which explains the meatpuppetry. Closing with no action. Sro23 (talk) 23:43, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Blocking Arabbitortwo 72 hours and indeffing sock/meats. I don't believe them.
