 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

Users are/were all primary contributors/defenders of the article Rev. Derek Balsdon and its speedy deleted predecessor. They all seem to be in support of the subject. The current page was created by Koyren while the previous was created by the sockmaster. The main account and the IP have also vandalized other articles, adding the subject's face to completely irrelevant articles. Ballasdon's behavior, another example, Koyren's defense, IP's behavior. Linnnnnnnnnnks' only contribution was to the talk page of the deleted article where he contested its deletion.  Protoss  Pylon  22:46, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

 * One of them may or may not be socking, but there is at least meatpuppetry going on, plus trolling and disruption. I've salted the article and blocked both editors for disruption. IPs are on different networks, very unlikely to be the same person on both IPs, although they may be linked to these editors.  They are cellphone IPs, disposable, nothing to be gained by blocking as they are already inactive by now. Closing. Dennis Brown &#124; 2¢ &#124; © &#124;  WER  16:25, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
