The article on Tao Lin, a subject who is known to have a knack for self-promotion, reads more like an advertisement then an article. A little glance into the history of the page shows many of the IPs coming from NYU, where he is known to write out of. Knowing there are many students there, I had a look at similar edits of. This new incarantion, Palayla has contributions pertaining to the subject, and effusive ones at that...CU needed to clear this up. Jimsteele9999 (talk) 19:04, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

– first off, we don't endorse CheckUser requests to publicly link to an IP address if that was not already clearly indicated. That being said, that might have been the case, as the timing indicates that the IPs and Palayla seem to be operated by one person. –MuZemike 00:10, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
 * The timings indicate this was an attempt to evade scrutiny, so I've extended Palalya's block for two weeks. IPs have been blocked.  Peter Symonds ( talk ) 21:02, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
