This seems to be the beginning of something rather odd, so I'd like to see if it is the same person/source, block Iopreya now, and sweep for any sleeper accounts. The first (known) account is Hllou, who after a series of minor, housekeeping type of edits (contrib history, edit wars at Barack Obama and Family of Barack Obama to insert a bizarre assertion regarding the president's daughter and a mirror/spoof of CNN's website at thestaryouth.com. The account is now blocked.

A few hours later, Iopreya appears at Michelle Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, claiming that each is running for president in 2016, sourced to...thestaryouth.com. This account also made a series of minor edits contrib history several days ago. I've seen this pattern before; this is how an account becomes confirmed in order to edit semi-protected articles. Note also that both accounts were created on 6th Aug within minutes of each other. Tarc (talk) 23:52, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
