As the revision history of Reunion Island: An Overview shows, all three accounts have used the same unusual edit summary comment "Bug fix." over a two day period. A total of four such "Bug fix." edits have occured from the three accounts. They are all basically WP:SPA accounts for this article, with Brianiannone seemingly a COI account. Moreover, the edits are becoming increasingly disruptive: Aborik had removed the AfD notice from the article and blanked the AfD's inclusion in the Film deletion sorting list, so as to suppress discussion. He attempted to hide the AfD tag blanking by calling it a "Bug fix." While one of Kaienhakuto's two so-called "Bug fixes" was a removal of maintence tags. There seems to be a consistent pattern of socking and deceptive editing. The User creation log reveals that Aborik was created as a new user account less than a half hour after Brianiannone was created.Shawn in Montreal (talk) 22:58, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Hello. The accounts Kaienhakuto, Brianiannone and Aborik do, in fact, belong to a single individual. However, my intention was not, "socking and deceptive editing." I apologize for any damages done. If needed, all three accounts and the page, "Reunion Island: An Overview" may be deleted. Regards, Kaien Hakuto. (talk) 01:46, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Per Kaienhakuto's admission, I've blocked both sockpuppets. And I'm letting Kaienhakuto off with a warning for now. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 02:43, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
