 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

All of these accounts seem to be only editing Ronald L. Dirsmith, and those first accounts indicate quite strongly that this is Dirsmith or an employee. Sockmaster is blocked, and Dirsmith1 was reported indefinitely blocked on their usertalk page, but is apparently editing anyway. Checkuser requested to check for sleepers and to ensure further account creation is blocked. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 14:42, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

 * All accounts are ✅, except who is way beyond . --  DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  20:14, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I've blocked and tagged all the sock accounts. The accounts share a similar focus in writing promotional material and linking to a company's website for additional information. I feel confident enough with the behavioral evidence to link them to the original Dirsmith account. Mike V  •  Talk  20:24, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
