Continued disruptive edits to Shinedown discography in general. They began doing it as an IP in September 2017. They eventually created this account did it twice on the account  before doing it numerous times using the above IPs. I am as certain as I can be without clearly seeing the link like a CheckUser can. Repeatedly targets their cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Simple Man" and removed the rightfully awarded RIAA Platinum status with its reference. As soon as the list gets protected, they show up as Mars-head again and do the same action to bypass it. And again. The IPs I've listed above aren't in any order. There are like 20 IPs, but this evidence should be more than enough - you can see all the same action on the target article's history by doing a page search of how many times you see "-32". Reminds me of Nikita, but a little less persistent, and no sock accounts made. I will only provide all the above IPs if I am truly required to. Don't know if I need a CheckUser, decline if necessary, but better safe to ask than sorry.  danny music editor  Speak up! 18:08, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

 * I agree as soon as the page gets protected this person switches from using IP's to using Mars-head. The account's sole purpose is to be disruptive. Please indef. Sro23 (talk) 01:02, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
