Three of these four user pages were oversighted today, and they all have similar content. User:JLP1996 was intentionally blanked a few months ago to get rid of privacy violations, but then the info popped up again on the other user pages. These pages all involve apparently real people (several of them minors) in Colorado, and tie them in with an apparently fictional Asian empire. Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:16, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

You may wish to add this one, which had an identical writing style on the same subject, and has already had attention from an oversighter too. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:34, 12 December 2010 (UTC) Forget that, I missed that it's already mentioned above. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:37, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm adding a CU here because it's really hard to get a sense of what's going on when nearly all edits have been oversighted out. The little I can see does seem like it's plausible based on behavioral evidence, but CU would clarify this. Some of these may be stale, though; again, I can't tell. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:40, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Alright, so I've blocked and tagged the three confirmed socks. Next, I blocked JLP2010 as a likely sock, and I blocked JLP1996 per WP:DUCK. We're all good here. Thanks to Alison for doing this! —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:09, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
