User:Leeds120 was registered at 17:48, 26 August 2010. The user's first edits were to Second city of the United Kingdom, where they constantly pushed POV regarding Leeds. They then vandalised Allosaurus. On the 29th August, Pyrotec left a message on Leed120's talk page regarding his edits to Second city of the United Kingdom:

Hi Leeds120, wikipedia is not regarded as a reliable source (see WP:circular), so I removed the affending citations. Pyrotec (talk) 21:33, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Then, Elland1 replies on Leeds120 talkpage.

Thank you for your message. I am entitled to edit any article I choose to, as are you, I simply happen to agree with Majabi. Elland1 (talk) 15:44, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

And then 'replies' again:

Thank you for your most recent contribution, your eloquence is inspirational. You're actually a disgrace to Yorkshire and the human race for that matter. Don't threaten me again, if you do, you will regret it. Warmest regards you uneducated loser. Elland1 (talk) 17:22, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Just before this last post, Elland1 tried to submit an Abuse Response case stating that Leeds120 had made a nasty personal attack on her. He did, he wrote:

Ur a disgrace to yorkshire u ugly piece of shit. Come to Leeds and get banged the fuck up then see who u agree with, pathetic little pussy.

However, the day before, Leeds120 created Elland1's talkpage with the message:

Leave this article alone, any further edits of this nature will be reported. Thankyou.

So far I've warned them both about there personal attacks, but its strange how they both edit the same articles, and more importantly, each others talkpage.Acather96 (talk) 07:18, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

. Note that they were edit warring with each other, and that their edits were more than several hours apart. That's not normally characteristic of sockpuppetry. Additionally, the incident where Elland1 seemingly replies on behalf of Leeds120 (which is this) appears to have actually been a reply to a message that Leeds120 left on Elland1's talk page. As such, I conclude that these accounts are not sockpuppets of each other, but that both of them needs lessons in civility. --(ʞɿɐʇ) ɐuɐʞsǝp 17:35, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
