GeraldDorton, an account with only a handful of edits, re-created two articles that had previously been deleted (Hadley Barrett and Oxford Sustainable Group. I tagged the first one for speedy deletion (G11) and the tag was immediately removed by MarkFlemish, an account that had been inactive since 2010. I restored the G11 tag and similarly tagged the other article as G11 and these tags were immediately removed by PriitTamberg, an account that had been inactive since 2012. It would appear that WP:DUCK is more than met, but perhaps a CU should be done to find other sleepers. Randykitty (talk) 11:18, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Both suspected sockpuppets also reported Randykitty to AIV after they tagged the articles for deletion . Linguist un Eins uno (Linguist111) 11:31, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Another interesting tidbit: when Hadley Barrett was first created back in 2009 by MarkFlemish, it was soon thereafter marked as "reviewed" by GeraldDorton. --Randykitty (talk) 11:39, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I've added Niflo8 just to be complete, although I realize that the account is stale at this moment. --Randykitty (talk) 13:36, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Randykitty suggested a CU so I am updating the template to reflect this. This deleted diff is additional evidence. BethNaught (talk) 12:46, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
