 * - Please provide more detailed information about where the abuse is taking place. I need evidence of abusive use of multiple accounts before I will run a checkuser. Reaper Eternal (talk) 16:06, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Both accounts are editing against consensus adding every single relative to the infobox which is against consensus as per WP:SOAPS, we only include close relatives.  I'm of the opinion it may be one person doing this.--5 albert square (talk) 20:00, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Could you perhaps elaborate on how the accounts are being misused? Are there diffs that would show the editors making the same/similar edits to the same article, participating in the same conversation, etc.? Based upon the edits provided, there doesn't seem to much disruption which would warrant a block. Mike V • Talk 00:22, 10 April 2015 (UTC)


 * All I have is what is at WP:SOAPS where it states that only close character relationships should be in the infobox:

 * An example is Sinead O'Connor (Hollyoaks) where EastEnderseditor2015 added a stepdad:

 * Which was then reverted:

 * A similar edit was made to the same article by Meowmeow99 which was also reverted:
