 * Suspected sockpuppets

Attacks on pages (and attempts caught by the abuse filter) indicates that this user may be the past operator of the User:Chris 73 account to impersonate User:Chris73, as his vandalism recalls a Chris 78, which doesn't exist, but is close enough to 73. ESpublic013 (talk) 15:05, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
