These two accounts are focused almost entirely on Draft:Lisa Goldman (American author), but also on Howard Goldman. These accounts are both accessing User:Brandonloya/sandbox, which is Lisa Goldman. Accessing another author's sandbox is at least meapuppetry, but the policy on meatpuppetry is syntactically in English and has no semantic meaning.

 * User:Bbb23 - It follows all of the rules of English grammar (the syntax), but it is impossible to figure out what message (the semantics) it is trying to convey. It differs from Jabberwocky in that all of the words have dictionary definitions.  In Jabberwocky it is obvious from context what parts of speech they are but they either have no dictionary definitions or the definitions were provided after the fact by Martin Gardner in his commentary.  The policy on meatpuppetry is incomprehensible.  The policy of sockpuppetry makes perfect sense.  Don't do it.  Robert McClenon (talk) 18:23, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It has been observed at WP:COIN that User:Chrisfrasier has been editing longer and may be the master account. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:25, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

I'll bite. "Accessing another author's sandbox is at least meapuppetry, but the policy on meatpuppetry is syntactically in English and has no semantic meaning." What does that mean?--Bbb23 (talk) 18:03, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
