 * I've added Bayouwatch 2 to the case: it seems like a pretty obvious duck, and their userpage redirects to Bayouwatch. Was about to add 2-1-1 count as well, which seems to follow the pattern of either a sock farm or meat farm based on their userpage alone. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:59, 28 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I forgot my password. The other accounts are not socks, they are just editors that saw the pages and agreed with me. Checkuser, please. Bayouwatch 2 (talk) 02:02, 28 June 2017 (UTC)


 * New user stopped by a day later to create the same articles (The Palms of Long Bayou, The Villas of Long Bayou, Long Bayou, Snowy Egret Lake, Long Bayou (Lake)), but they were blocked and reverted pretty quickly.  --Hirsutism (talk) 03:00, 30 June 2017 (UTC)

* - To confirm abuse of multiple accounts to generally obstruct Wikipedia processes. Thanks, GABgab 02:04, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Actually, now that the accounts have been blocked (as they rightfully should have), I am going to close. I think it is pretty obvious, and our CUs have much more productive work to handle GABgab 02:18, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
