Axelgums started in December with hoax articles about an Indonesian football team. He was told about verifiability and reliable sources. He then produced an article about a player called Muhammad Hazel Gumay, but when asked for sources blanked it and it was deleted. The same day he started a biography of the same person on his user page, and since then this group of users have created on their user pages interlinked fake articles about a whole dynasty of Gumays - Muhammad's brother, father and both grandfathers, all with careers as players and managers which do not stand up to checking. They edit each others' user pages and little or nothing else; they may be meatpuppets, but they are clearly not here to help build a factual encyclopedia. JohnCD (talk) 22:14, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Reported for the record. All blocked and tagged per DUCK. This is so self-contained that I don't think CU is necessary. JohnCD (talk) 22:15, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
