 * Suspected sockpuppets:

Roshanluke252 attempted to create the page Tony Crank at least two times. Then he stopped, and Mexicabre attempted to create the page. I can't check the content of a deleted page, but I believe that Mexicabre's version is identical or extremely similar to Roshanluke252's, leading me to suspect a sock.

Thanks, FlyingToaster, for bringing this up. I checked the edit histories of Tony Crank (the one created by User:Roshanluke252) and Tony crank (the one created by user:Mexicabre), and they're virtually identical (even the edit summaries for when the pages were created are virtually identical). That's convincing enough for me, especially since both accounts are SPA, and I'll be blocking the two of them. If, for some reason, CU comes back with an unexpected result, I'm open to reversing the blocks.  AK Radecki Speaketh  00:00, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
