I believe the accounts listed above are sock accounts of 41.71.148.69, an IP user who was block earlier today for violating Wikipedia's policies. The three accounts listed above were all opened after the block. Moreover, the accounts listed above have only made edits to the Articles for deletion/Gerald Milton discussion.

 * I'm endorsing a check only for the accounts. It appears that we may have some vote stacking at the AfD. In addition, some of the accounts have made similar actions such as blanking the AfD or removing the AfD template from the article page. Mike V  •  Talk  04:22, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Following are ✅:
 * There might be another one, but I can't be sure due to reasons I won't go into. (or the clerks who actions this): We usually move reports these to the oldest CU confirmed account so that's what they are recorded under (makes it easier to keep track of them).

 * The oldest of these accounts is Dope99. I have blocked that one for three days, and the others indefinitely. I shall also note the sockpuppetry on the AfD page. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:32, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Prof619's only edit was to re-create Gerald Milton, the focus of this sock-farm's activity; both IPs removed the speedy tag from the article, and 197 also blanked WP:Articles for deletion/Gerald Milton JohnCD (talk) 22:33, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Prof619 blocked per WP:DUCK. If this continues, I would be inclined to extend the master's block (now expired) to indef. JohnCD (talk) 22:36, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Looks like we're done here. The IPs are of little concern with the AfD closed and the article deleted. Closing &mdash;  MusikAnimal talk 16:28, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Both socks block, master hasn't edited for around 2 months so I'm leaving them unblocked. Closing. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 12:20, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
