 * Comments by other users
 * EPGBM is a program at IICM. 2212496 may well be a student number at the Institute. These three accounts may well be different people involved in this project. It may not be sock puppetry but it does seem to be a case of trying to use Wikipedia as a free host. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 18:10, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Very duckish, creating same article under different usernames (copy vio's have been confirmed, I had an admin check) as shown on talk pages. I'd say a block was in order of the two accounts and warn the main account; new user.  Syn  ergy 13:07, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Conclusions
 * I would have indef'd all three, but in deference to Synergy's call, I've indef'd the 2 socks and blocked the main account for 3 days.  MBisanz  talk 04:07, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
