NOTE: All times listed below are EST.

First off, look at the contributions from each editor on September 10, 2010.

Ramsfansince1969 created his account at 00:33, and started editing articles consistently until 08:58. During this time, there was a gap between 03:00 and 4:32, and 05:02 and 5:33. Between 03:28 and 03:48, RussFranciesTE81 edited Madison Hedgecock, and between 05:12 and 05:14, Bigmaninthebox edited Jacoby Shepherd. All three editors edit mainly St. Louis Rams articles, and all three were against the change at Template talk:Nfl predraft, the only editors to oppose the change. Furthermore, they all sign their comments without a space before the four tildes.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  22:02, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

What are the three accounts doing which pose a problem? Fred Talk 18:29, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 * They are making it seem like a number of editors oppose the change of Template:Nfl predraft at Template talk:Nfl predraft.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  19:09, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

I have confirmed that these three accounts are the work of one person. I suggest a warning to each of them. This user was not wrong in their judgment but sometimes decisions don't go exactly as you might wish. Fred Talk 03:29, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I have warned all three of them, this case can be closed now.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  03:35, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
Footballclips created Draft:Video Directors, which was rejected by Praxidicae. After the rejection, Bigmaninthebox decided to make their first edits in over SIX YEARS to create near 2 identical copies of the article in the main space under different names in order to WP:GAME the system (I moved both to draftspace; Draft:Football coaching film director and Draft:Coaching film director. Both drafts have been edited heavily by Footballclips as well. It would appear that in response to my draftifcation of the articles, as well as a note to Bigmaninthebox asking to clarify their relationship with Footballclips, this editor has moved to an IP, which has edited in the same subjects and also made a personal attack against me GPL93 (talk) 19:50, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.''
 * Comment If the accounts aren't related, they are clearly engaging in WP:MEAT in order to game the system and publish the rejected draft in the mainspace. GPL93 (talk) 00:04, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

 * The two named users are ❌. on the IP address. Reaper Eternal (talk) 23:48, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I am, however, concerned about the fact that has autopatrolled and reviewer and is making articles like this. That should probably be addressed outside SPI. Reaper Eternal (talk) 23:51, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I see that has already addressed this by revoking those permissions, so I'll just close this SPI. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:33, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
