Since Musicguru21 is a new account and the editor's first change is this one, it's suspicious. Passes the WP:DUCK test.

Should I mention PoppyTohill's repeated claims to be in COI as managing Brooke Fraser's "social media and online presence"? See my talk page and User talk:Seahorseruler.

 * I've indeffed and tagged the two named account and blocked the IP (who is from New Zealand, not Puerto Rico) for two weeks. I elected to indef the master because of the promotional editing and his uploading of multiple copyrighted images at Commons (and using them here), claiming they were his own work. All of those images have been speedily deleted at Commons. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:04, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
