Suspected sockpuppets
Mplsnirvana has been updating the Phillipe Cunningham page with overly negative, unsupported content. When updates to the page content were made to make the language more neutral and provide additional content, they reverted the changes. I undid their revision, to which they re-did. I opened up a complaint against them in anticipation of them violating the three revision rule. After I notified them on their talk board, they created an new account, Mplssouthside, to continue their overly negative updates. Mplssouthside copied and pasted content from the 'Powederhorn 9' article with an overly negative and editorial tone about Cunningham, an article submitted for review by Mplsnirvana. Mplsnirvana's article was rejected, so they decided to copy and paste the content into the Cunningham page itself as their sockpuppet account Mplssouthside.

It was suggested by an admin on the biographies board to report this user as a sockpuppet account.

 * A check has ✅ that the two accounts are being operated by the same person. The edits don't overlap in time, so maybe Mplssouthside can be viewed as a successor account? I intend to go ahead with a block of User:Mplsnirvana unless others disagree. EdJohnston (talk) 16:07, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Per a discussion at User talk:EdJohnston, the editor has explained how he came to be using two accounts. He is willing to use User:Mplsnirvana from now on. I've indefinitely blocked User:Mplssouthside but the person can continue to use the other account. Am now marking this SPI for close. EdJohnston (talk) 22:55, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
