Suspected sockpuppets

Three users whose entire editing history is to Draft:The Nexus framework in a Distributed Setup, all within a two-week period, mostly within a few days. If not socks, then certainly meat.

Too stale for CU, but rather than block them myself, opening this to get a second opinion. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:11, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

I'm a master student at the Delft University of Technology. All of the other three users were part of my team during IN4185 Globally Distributed Software Engineering course teached by Rini van Solingen. One of the deliverables for that course was creating one or more artifacts that add value to the body of knowledge of GDSE. Our team chose creating an Wikipedia page, this is how the draft article in question was created. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asimionconstan (talk • contribs) 16:26, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
 * OK, that sounds reasonable. What you and your fellow students should do is put a note on each of your user pages explaining this, with a pointer to a class dashboard.  Sockpuppetry is a major problem on wikipedia, and the pattern of editing described above sets off alarm bells.  See also WP:Student assignments for further suggestions on how to avoid future issues.  You should also ask your instructor to read the WP:INSTRUCTORS section.  Based on your explanation, I'm going to go ahead and close this, but please follow the recommendations I've described.  -- RoySmith (talk) 16:47, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
