Evidence submitted by Maunus
The three users Finister2, Frgrfss and AlienX2009 have all made the same edits to List of Ben 10 characters: removal of the list of alien characters without discussion or reasoning. This pattern has been repeated many times, resulting in Frgrfss being blocked for breaking 3rr. After the expiry of Fgrfss' block he returned making the same edit and finally making an editsummary stating "There is too much information!" - the only explanation given by any of the accounts for the continued removal of the alien related material. (the alien related material was apparently merged into the article awhile ago). The editpatterns of two of the accounts: Finster2 and Frgrfss are identical: removing alien related material from the list and refusal to enter dialoguea bout problematic edits. Seems a clear cases of Single Purpose Accounts and quacking. I am less certain about AlienX2009 who did give an (erroneous) explanation at his talkpage after being reverted once - and who has a somewhat different editing pattern.·Maunus· ƛ · 10:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

There is a similar pattern at Template:Doctor Who, with multiple reverts to the user's preferred version by Finister2 and use of an IP (Special:Contributions/89.168.202.23) that is clearly connected to that account. --Ckatz chat spy  18:33, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

See Defending yourself against claims. Finister2 - I had no idea I had to explain myself. my apologese. The reason was that there was aready a wikipedia page for the aliens. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Finister2 (talk • contribs) 10:55, 3 April 2010 (UTC) I have no connections with Frgrfss or AlienX2009.

Actually, these users only do Ben 10. I do Tokusatsu (Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, and Ultraman) and other stuff like Pokemon too. Plus I do not use bad grammar. Why do you think I am connected to these two exactly? And I already said my reasons about deleting it. I swear to God I am not connected to these two. AlienX2010 (talk) 19:00, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

I would say that these are different people as two of them edit slightly different articles. It looks like the IP is clearly Finister2, but there's no evidence of abusive sock puppetry there. Marked as closed with no action taken. –MuZemike 18:09, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
