The accounts have done nothing other than raise AfDs on BLPs that are the alumni of Bedford Modern School. It has also been suggested that it might be a campaign against instead, someone who has done much work on these BLPs. Latest example Paul Edwards (composer), otherwise contribs gives a convenient list.

The AfDs are generally without merit. Most are some variation of "Just not notable". Many are ludicrous, such as members of the Order of the Bath a quaint piece of British chivalry. Although the lower levels such as OBE recipients are not considered automatically notable (this has arisen at many of these AfD), a CB is such a high level of honour that is agreed as an automatic and obvious pass to WP:N.

The campaign nature of these AfDs has already led to them being raised at ANI: Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive860 and this was where the sock puppet/master was first suggested.

It has also been suggested that this account was a sock of the AfD-active and now blocked MayVenn, but that seems unlikely. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:35, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
