 * Suspected sockpuppets

Late last year the article The Conjowa (and later its sequel The Conjowa: Sequel Na i-Two) was up for deletion. There were several attempts to re-create the pages, making it necessary for several pages to be salted to prevent re-creation. Pages that were created to evade the salting include The Conjowa 2 and The Conjowa (film), and several other pages were blocked to prevent further re-creation. I've blocked the initial account that created the page, but I noticed that User:AANDATONIGHT removed the PROD on the article Conjowa Movie Series. They do have some other edits so I'm hesitant to block them as a sock of User:JavaBroadCorp just because they removed the PROD. However at the same time I don't want to not run this user through SPI at all, given the extent of the sockpuppetry of JavaBroadCorp in the past and the editing history of other accounts shown to be socks of JBC. Checking for other socks might be a good idea, but I don't know that it's entirely necessary so I understand if someone decides to decline checkuser. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   08:42, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * User:AANDATONIGHT just blanked the page. That's a little fishy. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   14:10, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

 * The master is, so I used block sock for comparison.  is  related based on geolocation, however the link isn't very strong.--Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  21:44, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Behavioural evidence nearly always trumps CU, and I'd say they just wandered into WP:DUCK territory with the blanking of the SPI. Their creation of a perfectly formed article with images, infobox and full wiki mark-up as their third edit is also very suspicious. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 16:43, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
