There's something strange going on in the recent revisions of Draft:CrankGameplays; it has suddenly started attracting a ton of attention from newly/recently registered accounts. These accounts have also created Draft:Ethan Nestor (crankgameplays), Draft:CrankGameplays (Ethen Nestor), Draft:Ethan Nestor(Crankgameplays), Draft:Ethan Nestor-Darling, Draft:Ethan Nestor (CrankGameplays) (note: all of these were redirected by @JalenFolf to Draft:CrankGameplays as redundant drafts). A newly registered account (no previous edits) has also appeared on my talk page to contest the deletion of Draft:Ethan Nestor (CrankGameplays). F ASTILY  01:02, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

 * I had suspected something was going on after my attempts at handling the promotional siege on the redirect Unus Annus. All accounts appear to have the same promotional agenda for nearly all related material on this subject, including several at Markiplier. Jalen Folf   (talk)  01:06, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Ah, didn't realize a shitshow was going on because some "celebrity" decided they can just demand an article. If the first page of Google News results had RS specifically about Nestor other than an interview on Tubefilter, I'd consider banging out a stub so the ones who just want an article would leave alone and any causing further trouble would sooner qualify as WP:NOTHERE.  Ironically, a lot of YouTubers' tactics used to become famous drown out potential sources, making it hard enough for me to find independent sources that I just can't be arsed.

 * - This is obvious enough that I've already blocked all of the unblocked accounts, but given the sheer number of them, this probably worth a check to see if there are any more. Sir Sputnik (talk) 01:17, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * ❌, assume malicious WP:MEAT., did you mean to leave BradJay unblocked? ST47 (talk) 01:37, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * No that was unintentional. Closing. Sir Sputnik (talk) 03:30, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
