It's either sock puppettry or coordinated editing, mostly on article Rocket Records and other related articles. User also claims to be a former wikipedia administrator, not sure if that's true.  Krystaleen  10:44, 3 March 2013 (UTC)



On Talk:Rocket Records. The suspected sockmaster is a relatively new user who happened to stumble upon the discussion at this talk page. Today, this editor created a new topic on the talk page. Immediately thereafter, the suspected sock account is created and chimes into the discussion (one again, happened to stumble upon it) in support of the suspected sockmaster. Because of previous edits involving sockpuppetry/meatpuppetry regarding this article, this appears too be more than coincidental. Edit: given the already opened request prior to this one, I am requesting checkuser. Kinu t/c 20:33, 3 March 2013 (UTC) *Merged by -- DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  00:01, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

The user begins by systematically removing all links to the now redirect Rocket Records, for example here and here, which is an obsession of Professional Music Blogger and their puppets and is likely in preparation for recreating the spam article by the same name. For example, this is similar to the behavior of User:Zachtron: note the unusual practice by both puppets of making almost all of their edits minor with comments: compare this with this. Especially telling is their deletion of a spam report about one of their puppets here. Finally, they deleted the talk page of The Rocket Record Company with a misleading edit summary that the contents were archived (it contained the rants of all their puppets). This one quacks very loudly! I am One of Many (talk) 23:52, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

And they deleted reference to two other spam articles they created, which were deleted. I am One of Many (talk) 00:04, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Obvious sock is obvious, so I've blocked. -- Kinu  t/c 00:33, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
