 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by Atama

Javalover100 was reported to the conflict of interest noticeboard with a suggestion that they were whitewashing the Peaberry Coffee article to remove information about the company closing all of its stores. When I checked the history of the page, I saw that Javalover100 had reverted the article 25 times in the past week, always reverting to the same general version. I warned the editor about 3RR and they reverted again, so I reported the editor to the edit-warring noticeboard where they were blocked for 24 hours.

Soon after the block, a new account "Geterdon" appeared and their first edit was to make the same revert that Javalover100 has been making (removing sourced negative information). I think this is obviously a sockpuppet per WP:DUCK. --  At am a  頭 22:34, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * I just wanted to point out, while I was writing this report Geterdon reverted the article again, showing the same tendentious edit-warring as Javalover100. --  At am a  頭 23:11, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * And now a third editor has appeared mysteriously, Pucks05, making the same revert. Possibly because I warned Geterdon about this investigation, they decided to make another sockpuppet? --  At am a  頭 00:13, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Conclusions
 * I blocked the two sockpuppets indefinitely, and blocked Javalover100 for a week. Do you want to educate him about not socking please? NW ( Talk ) 02:42, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
