 * Suspected sockpuppets

is a single-purpose account created to "protect Wikipedia from blatent[sic] spamming by PODs company staff" involved in disruptive editing on PODS (company) related files and harassing. Similar behavior is shown by 86.139.142.44, 82.132.139.133, 86.139.84.237 (nominating PODS files for deletion or participating in those discussions  ). Both the IPs geolocate to London. Twalters82 claims to not have a COI, but even if they have a COI, they should not be harassed for it. Using multiple accounts to edit like this and to participate in same deletion discussions is a violation of the sockpuppetry policy, and in my opinion these two accounts (PODs watch, Fluffy Bunny) should be blocked for their edits alone, even if the CheckUser comes out negative. —SpaceFlight89 09:11, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

User:Fluffy Bunny loves NLR blocked indefinitely, User:PODs Watch blocked for 2 weeks for disruption and sock puppetry. I am leaving the IP addresses alone as they have not edited in a while. Rangeblocks are out of the question; the one /16 range is too busy to place a block. MuZemike 19:13, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
