'Darvish Khan writes' is a blog here [] where Bill Gannett writes about Francis Brabazon clearly as a devotee. The blog name and his real name make up sock 1 and 2. He came to WP with an agenda as sock 1. Editing here [] to alter the Francis Brabazon page so it was suitable for his web page. He stated this. It didnt work out for him. I explained that devotional text is not suitable for WP. Later he appeared as user sock 2. Editing here [] Hes not getting his way. Hes becoming more uncivil, disruptive and not collaborating with consensus. I'd like this stopped early if thats ok before he starts wasting our time. Both users are in fact Bill Gannett who runs the web blog, devoted to Brabazon amoung other things. ie he claims Brabazon is the greatest poet in English of our time. Thank you.

 * No checkuser is needed, as the content of the edits makes it clear that the accounts are used by the same person. This person is clearly very new and unaware of many things about Wikipedia. I have informed them on both their talkpages that they need to pick one account and stick with it, and also that the personal attacks here are inappropriate. When/if I get a response from them, I'll leave the chosen account to hopefully find its feet here, and block the other one. Meanwhile, I suggest this can be closed. Thank you for the report, User:SaintAviator. Bishonen &#124; talk 23:15, 23 July 2014 (UTC).

 * Update: the new user has chosen to continue using the Darvish writes account, and I have blocked Billgannett. Closing. Bishonen &#124; talk 10:29, 26 July 2014 (UTC).
