Pattern of similar edits to Horse (musician): adding promotional material, removing similar or identical aspects of content (e.g. birth name). User:HorseMcD claims to be subject of article, with an edit summary "I am Horse and as such should be the only person updating my page". Various users make no discussion of edits on article talk page, though [|has posted on mine], where I have advised them and re-warned re WP:COS and WP:SOCK, amongst other things. Pertinent diffs include:     Mutt Lunker (talk) 23:21, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

 * All socks blocked and tagged except Horsemusic which is too stale to worry about. The interest area and pattern of reverts is convincing enough for me to WP:DUCK block. Master blocked for 2 weeks. Closing. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 12:42, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
