These two new accounts showed up on David Deejay. They're editing back to back and all of their contributions have been to this one article? How convenient! This lousy T-shirt (talk) 20:35, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

 * The accounts were both created at roughly the same time, one on rowiki, the other here. They edited that article together before they ever got any warning, so they did not have incentive to create an alternate account. They also show very different skills in editing wikicode. The accounts are certainly unrelated, and I see no reason to suspect abusive editing with multiple accounts. I can never rule out that they may have talked to each other off Wikipedia, and I do not know what prompted that sudden surge of editing on that article; quite possibly it was simply the release of a new single. But none of this would be abusive socking. In fact, I'm not sure whether that blanket revert of yours was called for, as far as I see there certainly was encyclopedic information added in those edits. Amalthea  11:57, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
