Suspected sockpuppets




Evidence submitted by Tenebrae
User:Theghosthunter777's edit here is virtually identical to this one by User:Freddy Taylor. Both accounts are new single purpose accounts that have made only promotional edits to the same single article, Tyler Shields. --Tenebrae (talk) 23:54, 25 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Additionally, after Freddy Taylor and Theghosthunter777 were reported here, two other SPAs appeared that made different but equally unhelpful edits containing trivia, hype, promotional tone and copyright violation. These are User:Infinitesplendor and User:LifeisArt1972. It would not be surprising if they had the same IPs as those above. Even if not, the use of multiple accounts by SPAs solely interested in promotional edits seems an abuse of Wikipedia. --Tenebrae (talk) 01:30, 26 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Now add User:Justinheartly2000 to the list.


 * As well, another editor has now noticed the apparent WP:COI; see here. --Tenebrae (talk) 15:13, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

 * This looks like QUACK easily applies. As more than one article is being spammed, some admin action is needed. Fæ (talk) 15:30, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
