New Article Vertcoin is published yesterday. I had nominated for csd but changes it to AFD after it was declined. All of a sudden we had a flood of new accounts that were contesting deletion on the talkpage, this means meatpuppetry, off wiki canvassing or as I believe sockpuppets with an agenda of promoting a business/product. See edits [] noting a spa account, [] and []. They all use the same rationale saying that the technology gives it great potential of the technology etc. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 13:08, 13 March 2014 (UTC)


 * It's probably unlikely but I should probably also show User:Waltsen [] as a mention too, this is a brand new account with it's only contribution to Vertcoin afd to delete. Probably not related but a possible Good Hand, Band Hand thing. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 13:11, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Another one User:Phishfi ( Phishgood choice in username ;) )

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * These accounts are all ❌ to eachother. The influx of new users on the talk page is likely due to off-wiki canvassing via the vertcoin reddit community. Note I didn't check as there was no basis for running a check on them.--Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  18:04, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Closing with no action based on CU result. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 05:07, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
