The user behind Musicchief007, Truthbetold123222, 88.194.149.117 and 85.76.146.171 seem to be the same person. There is multiple voting on an AfD happening by this single user with vandalism and disruptive editing on the articles and some abusive language to other editors.

If one looks at the edit histories of both Musicchief007 and Truthbetold123222, they're quite similar. There's even the same unusual spelling errors that "both" users happened to make. The histories are full of the Benn Jordan page, the AfD page and many of the other pages are those of his individual album pages. The edits are similar in that they attempt to delete all the reference URLs for the article that the AfD is about, repeatedly add speedy deletion tags to the article even though this article doesn't qualify for it, they talk about the same kind of thing in the same way, deleting sections and paragraphs except for the first line of the section and they're all single use accounts that were created in the last days for responding to this article's issues, none of the comments are signed. Looking at both IP addresses they both trace back to the same metro area in Finland.

Targeting Benn Jordan and related articles for deletion. Same pattern of mass deletion of text from article and rapidly adding multiple CSD templates to related articles. &#124; Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  14:06, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Added 88.194.149.117 as their recent edit continues the same style -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  19:44, 19 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Was about to file an SPI myself. Added as a suspect per Special:Diff/696131870. Mz7 (talk) 03:48, 21 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Just throwing my hat into the ring here. This user (or these users) have caused no end of grief. In spamming about a dozen moderators with complaints, they've actually succeeded in inciting them to delete dozens of articles by convincing them that they were 'blatant advertising', which is mystifying. I'm trying to resolve over at User_talk:Jimfbleak's talk page now, but any assistance would be helpful. Alainbryden (talk) 04:38, 21 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Providing a link here for convenience: Articles for deletion/Benn Jordan (2nd nomination) is the locus of the potential disruption. I've also notified the registered user accounts of this discussion to allow them a chance to respond. Mz7 (talk) 04:45, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

 * - to compare two newly created accounts that voted similarily,see : and .  Vanjagenije   (talk)  00:47, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
 * The following accounts are ✅:
 * Hannukoivu is technically but behaviorally obvious. The account's technical data matches the other three accounts except that Hannukoivu's one edit is from a different device.
 * I've blocked all of the unblocked accounts and tagged all. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:53, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

Another brand new account whose first efforts are directed at the Benn Jordan AFD &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  02:04, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, the IP address (88.194.148.47) is amazingly close to one in the previously archived SPI. -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  02:46, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
