Basp1 posted on a Commons deletion discussion with the comment "that is a very good useful map .keep it.". Four single-purpose account IPs have since posted on this Wikipedia deletion discussion with the comments "Keep it, useful", "keep it. usefull", "Keep it , useful." and "keep it usefull". The deletion discussion is about an article created by User:Basp1. The errors of spaces before punctuation marks is consistent with Basp1's writing style. These may be meatpuppets, not sockpuppets.

I believe checkusers generally don't link IP addresses to named accounts. That said, this looks like an obvious WP:DUCK case. The AFD has been closed as delete, but Basp1's [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ABasp1&diff=493515906 response] sounds concerning. They're denying any wrongdoing despite clear evidence to the contrary. Jafeluv (talk) 18:33, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Named user and IPs have ceased editing and the AfD has been closed as delete, so closing. If they resume, please file another report. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 16:43, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
