Samuel Elton of mine. I reverted back to the status quo. Only 23 minutes later this account was created and. There's no way that's a coincidence. Elton had added links to a hoax article not once, or twice, but thrice so there are likely other socks out there. Chris Troutman ( talk ) 03:32, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I am extremely sorry for my actions and I realize they are inexcusable. I sometimes get extremely bored on the computer and resort to tainting and destroying a wonderful, informative public resource such as Wikipedia. Although I have tried my best to write legitimate articles (ex. Hastiliarius, Beretta Pico(not that that excuses my actions)) I have in the past written destructive content (ex. Fraestar Tomb, Ommelanderwijk Man). I would like to sincerely apologize for what I have done and I now realize my actions have effects on many people. I have added other accounts associated with me to the list. I love Wikipedia and it is my number one resource. Again, I am very sorry for what I have done and I think I am taking a long break from editing or changing Wikipedia in anyway. Maxwell Patrone (talk) 03:56, 21 August 2014 (UTC)


 * I AfD'd Fraestar Tomb and it was obvious that there was collusion going on. I didn't file a report as the editors concerned (all the above save Maxwell Patrone) seemed to have stopped editing. I will leave it to others to decide what action is appropriate but I will say this - it was obvious to me that Fraestar was a hoax, but it was otherwise rather better written than most new articles I come across. If you decide to leave the dark side you are clearly capable of making a decent contribution. Ben   Mac  Dui  07:53, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

 * ,, and  (created today) are all the same user as  which is the oldest account and therefore the master.--Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  22:01, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I've blocked all the sock accounts and gave the master account a one week block. While the apology above was nice, unfortunately it's empty words as the individual created another sock following the message. Mike V  •  Talk  22:26, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
