EdmondDantesOfMonteCristo and Marieudeparteu created the article TANCREDI that has been nominated for deletion for lack of notability. As I have pointed out at the AfD page, these two users have been creating Tancredi articles at several Wikipedia editions and notably the Italian version has repeatedly been deleted as outright spam or recreation of a previously deleted page.

Salvio661, VituzzuMona and CarloMarino are clearly SPAs that appeared within two hours on 6 September to boost the favourable !voting in the deletion discussion. If not outright sockpuppetry by the same user this looks at least a lot like meatpuppetry. De728631 (talk) 23:50, 6 September 2013 (UTC) De728631 (talk) 23:50, 6 September 2013 (UTC)


 * And I have just blocked for their offensive username (→ ) and actions like this. De728631 (talk) 00:32, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

 * I've already locked all these accounts basing on both WP:DUCK and an investigation I made on some other project. --Vituzzu (talk) 00:36, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Surely you've locked them at the Italian Wikipedia, but not here. De728631 (talk) 00:47, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Vituzzu has informed me that there are more grossly insulting usernames in this list. So I've looked it up in the dictionary and 'VituzzuMona' is in fact a blockable offence. The latter has thus been indeffed. De728631 (talk) 00:55, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I've blocked the ✅ sockpuppets indefinitely. I've also blocked the IP for a week on behavioral grounds. And yes, Vituzzu can globally lock accounts as a steward. Closing. Reaper Eternal (talk) 00:55, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

I !vote "delete" in the page he created, and now s/he is copy-pasting what I wrote elsewhere, including articles related to my editing. The evidence is clear, especially in pages like Alloy Digital or Alan Wilkins (playwright). Tb hotch .™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions.  02:27, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Blocked as a duck, troll, vandalism-only account, etc. CU might want to check the new IP for a range block. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:53, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I checked it, but there isn't much that can be done on that front. NativeForeigner Talk 05:11, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Closed. It's already checked and blocked. Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:14, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
