 * Either socks or meats going on here, I'm leaning towards meatpuppetry here, given the subject of the article here, most likely being co-workers. Question is, whether just doing something with the article, as opposed to blocking, would be sufficient here. Their edits aren't bad per se, they just don't meet our policies for conflict of interest and neutrality. Other input here would be appreicated, but perhaps just performing an action on the article, whether it's deletion or otherwise, may be all that is needed.

 * I've warned the above users for a conflict of interest, and the article does need some cleanup, but apart from that no further action is needed. If promotional edits continue we can issue blocks if really needed, but only as a last resort. I don't think any further action is needed here.

 * This doesn't settle to well. Even if it's a meat, i'd rather know, there are similiarities. The user is trying to revert edits against policy, aka evading the community. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  00:01, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅, they're the same person on the same computer. As pointed out to me on IRC, that doesn't necessarily mean it isn't two people using the same computer. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 01:21, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The accounts have gone quiet, so I'm closing for now. Relist if there are new developments. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 14:07, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
