 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

The main account here is a SPA that added a section on a recent incident to the article at Brentwood High School (Brentwood, Pennsylvania). Makotojs then started piling on and making the article extremely unencyclopedic; when some of the worst of his edits were reverted, 87truthseeker78 appeared and started edit-warring, adding even worse information, and then trying to create a spin-off attack page when he was reverted several times further - at which point Pizzaluver appeared for the sole purpose of reverting back 87's contributions. The whole saga:. The first two putative socks here have been already blocked for disruption while the third is blocked per the duck test, with the article semi-protected. However, I'm uncertain as to the connection to the main account here - but the smell of sock is strong enough for me to ask for a check, and the fact that Robdom3 was created a very long time ago (January 2007!!) but popped up only now to edit - sparking off a SPA edit-war firestorm - makes me wonder if there are sleepers to be found.

 * - I'm not really convinced that Robdom is part of this, but I'm endorsing to clarify that, as well as to see how these other accounts are related. And do we have any sleepers? —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 04:05, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't see Robdom3's connection to this case, so that account was not checked. It looks like they made a good faith addition to the article. ✅ the following are the same:

 * Fair enough, and I figured that was the case, but wanted confirmation. All of that sock drawer (too small really to be a farm...) bagged and tagged. Perhaps this should be moved to SPI/Makotojs? - The Bushranger One ping only 18:22, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
 * So moved. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 21:19, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
