 * - - I'm not 100% convinced about Lookylookycookie. But the other two accounts and the nature of how they act, compared to it, is concerning. Blocked Changedbythisguygotcha, pending block for pnewcomb6384. --  DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  17:47, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Looks like they're ❌ to each other. Elockid  ( Talk ) 18:43, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The issue is rather well publicized, so it's not a far stretch that numerous people would be attracted to the article. Also, from a behavioral standpoint, doesn't look like a convincing match. Given the results, I've re-blocked  for BLP-violations instead of socking. I'm leaving the others be. They are clearly disruptive and can just be blocked on their editing behavior alone if they continue.  Tiptoety  talk 14:37, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
