This obvious sock was created a matter of minutes after a posting on Wikipediocracy on the same subject. It's obviously linked, and most likely used by a banned user (there are several possible candidates). I'm requesting a CU as there may be other sleeper socks.

 * Added, another obvious sockpuppet responding to a post I made about Wikipediocracy sockpuppets. Prioryman (talk) 18:48, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

No obvious technical relation between the two; they use the same wireless ISP but are geolocated thousands of miles apart. Meatpuppets, perhaps, but not obvious technical sockpuppets. No sleepers on the ranges either. -- Avi (talk) 17:29, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Regardless, I've blocked both as clearly violating WP:SCRUTINY. Please log in to your original accounts to discuss divisive topics. Closing. Reaper Eternal (talk) 19:00, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
