Editor is soliciting for paid article writing here and guaranteeing that the articles won't be deleted. Sockmaster was blocked for spamming this morning. Recommend checkuser to uncover other accounts as the user is knowingly socking and gaming the system. ⋙–Berean–Hunter—► ((⊕)) 14:56, 24 January 2011 (UTC)  ⋙–Berean–Hunter—►  ((⊕)) 14:56, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

 * While we are here, I added two more possible socks, based on editing history. I wouldn't mind a CU to confirm/see if there are more since the WP:DUCK association is pretty borderline. VQuakr (talk) 17:02, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * Per WP:DUCK, I've blocked and tagged that sock. I'm not sure about CU just yet; we can revisit if/when this happens again. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 15:20, 24 January 2011 (UTC
 * Note: User is claiming they were hacked. <b style="color:#00C">⋙–Ber</b><b style="color:#66f">ean–Hun</b><b style="color:#00C">ter—►</b>  (<b style="color:#00C">(⊕)</b>) 16:32, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Heh, and they were summarily dismissed. Still, I'm adding a checkuser to see if the other two new accounts are the same, and then we can take it from there. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 17:15, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

 * All blocked and tagged. Relist if more come down the line. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 18:19, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Any chance of getting a rangeblock? Sockmaster now taunting. Here also. <b style="color:#00C">⋙–Ber</b><b style="color:#66f">ean–Hun</b><b style="color:#00C">ter—►</b>  (<b style="color:#00C">(⊕)</b>) 18:24, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd say maybe hold off on a rangeblock until we know that there's further sockpuppetry. In the meantime, I've revoked talk page for all the accounts. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 18:40, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
