Both users repeatedly semiblanked (ecaner also full-blanked) same article between 12-16-10 and 1-2-11. No contributions to any other Wikipedia section by any of them. All warning templates and messages to them remain unanswered. Both spotted as vandals by vandal bots. Filius Rosadis (talk) 22:06, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

 * There's something going on over at Ergun Caner. Some other accounts over there are suspicious, but not exactly like these two accounts. Still, I think a sleeper check is needed. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 23:08, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

– They are editing from a university IP address, which is likely a shared IP. –MuZemike 10:26, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I think I'm going to close this with no action. While it's possible that both accounts are the same person, there's no evidence of malicious socking. There's no overlap in their edits, and indeed they're separated out by two weeks. Perhaps the first account was abandoned due to its name being close to the name of the article that it's edit warring on; I don't really know. But feel free to relist if another account shows up, or if the first account becomes active again. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:12, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
