 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

Observations
 * User:Marcuscw is the oldest account, but only made their first edit on 2017-12-27 at 20:19.
 * User account Indeskys was created on 2017-12-27 at 11:34.
 * One hour later at 12:34 they.
 * At 15:04 they make to the draft.
 * Marcuscw returns in the evening, and makes 10 small edits within ~½ an hour.
 * The 8th edit at is a punctuation fix to.
 * The 11th edit at 20:56 is to move the draft to Marcus Van Wattum.
 * At 22:02 user account Nbpdigital is created and begins editing in Marcus Van Wattum.
 * On 2018-01-01 the article is send to AFD
 * The three accounts all argues "keep" at AFD.
 * Marcuscw and Indeskys have no substantial edits outside the AFD discussion and Marcus Van Wattum.
 * Nbpdigital has no edits outside the AFD discussion and Marcus Van Wattum.

Thoughts
 * 1) Marcuscw may be the subject of Marcus Van Wattum.
 * 2) Indeskys may have been created to avoid AB allegations.
 * 3) Indeskys is unable to move the draft into main space, so Marcuscw conveniently does it for them.
 * 4) Typical vote stacking at AFD. — Sam Sailor 09:59, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment Hi just got the email about this. You are partly correct:

1. doxing 2. Indeskys is my room mate who made the page for me 3. Nbdigital is another friend who helps with my socials

Other than working on the page together there is no real weird stuff going on, we used all legit references, didn't make any bogus claims or whatever. The reason I interfered with the voting is because the user who started the deletion request obviously did not went through the sources to verify them, the music bio notabilty requirements were already met from the start. I would expect users who take the time to start deletion requests or even do sock puppet investigations would take some time to look at the actual article and verify references and deletion allegations, it would literally take 1 minute to see the guidelines were met, instead we're here in week 2 of voting without anyone doing some useful research or add to the discussion...
