 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

All three IPs are from Pittsburgh (two from the university). All four are heavily dedicated to articles about roller coasters, Robb Alvey (of the Roller Coaster Database) and articles where User:Starship9000 is involved: All four !voted "keep" at Articles for deletion/Yukon Yahoo with weak arguments essentially saying (without support) that the subject is notable.

 * Are you saying these are run by User:Starship9000 too? If so, Starship also contributes from this IP address.-- Astros4477 ( talk ) 03:49, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
 * These four seem to be opposing Starship9000 and are from Pittsburgh. The IP (which I agree is probably Starship9000) is in Tennessee. (I haven't looked into the IP yet, I was waiting to see if it is used during S9000's current block.)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' There is nothing hostile, nothing worth a ban. As a new user, I never took logging in too seriously, rookie mistake. I apologize. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.17.102.92 (talk) 05:33, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
 * To demonstrate that you did not understand the importance of logging on, you edited here without logging on, then went here to do more of the same? I'd suggest a good start would involve going to the AfD and striking out your duplicate votes and always logging on from this point forward. - Sum mer PhD  (talk) 06:31, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Ok all logged in, nothing to worry about now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Julser1 (talk • contribs) 06:37, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
I'm inclined to believe this is more a case of severe newbishness than bad faith sockpuppetry. I will not feel the same way if the issue returns. I have given Julser1 an appropriate warning Someguy1221 (talk) 08:53, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
