 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by User:A Nobody


 * Both accounts created on May 14, 2009: and.
 * Both accounts' sole edits have to do with "in popular culture" articles, particularly those associated with User:Mintrick. As such, accounts may be being used to harass Mintrick:
 * User:JasonFrankTed's first edits are on Mintrick's talk page: and.
 * The user's third edit is to say to delete an "in popular culture" article Mintrick created:
 * The account next templates an "in popular culture" article Mintrick created:.
 * Then the second suspect account's first edit is to nominates this same article for deletion:.
 * The first suspect account tags some more Mintrick created articles: and.
 * The second suspect account nominates another Mintrick created article for deletion:.
 * Finally, the first suspect account says to "keep" an article Mintrick nominated for deletion:.

It seems odd that two new accounts' sole edits would have to deal exclusively with one other user (Mintrick) and as such, I suspect that these accounts are sockpuppets being used to target Mintrick. Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 00:38, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

4 reverts on Famous for being famous
 * 1) IP
 * 2) User
 * 3) User
 * 4) User

Both IP and user blanked warnings after receiving them without talking:
 * IP
 * User
 * User

Numerous violations by the user account detailed at:
 * Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive558. Including multiple copyvios as well as edits which indicate this is an old user with a new account (restoring a may fact tag on an article by a new account)

IP seen making personal attacks: blanking talk pages
 * 
 * 

After the AN/I report the user account blanked their talk and stopped edit. The IP began editing again. This might be obvious, but I was told at AN/I to bring it here.Crossmr (talk) 10:47, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
