IP start a angry rant on an AfD-page in the same style as the sockmaster. The layout of the edits makes it look like three different but unsigned opposes against the nomination. See. The author, opens his edit exactly the same way, with the text " : – ( View AfD View log ) " See:  Presenting yourself as four (or two) different users is misusing multiple accounts.

I'm sorry, but checkuser generally does not disclose connections between IPs and named accounts. TN X Man 14:05, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Sockmaster, Lacysanchez2 and the IP's operate in a very simular style, starting with "for ...". Lacysanchez2 even signes edits of Sammetsfan, but claims to be the sister of the sockmaster and using the same computer. To my opinion, and backed up another Wikipedia, this user operates at two accounts and several IPs to give the impression of more support then in reality.

A further search for sleepers would be nice, because the accounts Lixian619 and MoHuKai, are also not without doubt. They are not involved in the reported case, but showed up as SPAs on the debated article List of Michelin three starred restaurants. Night of the Big Wind talk  23:19, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

You can leave the two other out, looking dodgy is no crime. Night of the Big Wind talk  01:53, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

 * The two named accounts seem duckish to me, and the CU won't connect accounts with IPs, but I'll endorse this to check for sleepers. Mind you, if you though you had a strong enough case against Lixian619 and MoHuKai, the proper thing to do would be to add it to this case and back it up with diffs.

 * Sammetsfan and Lacysanchez2 are ✅. No comment on anything else. Per Sven, we need to see some evidence before checking other accounts. WilliamH (talk) 01:46, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Accounts have not edited since about 5 days ago, so I don't there is anything else that can be done here. --MuZemike 18:32, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
