Both are exclusively adding promotional content to Singapore American School with very similar edits, both claim to be alumni, and the use of 2 accounts has allowed them to circumnavigate 3RR (as they have 2 reversions each). This is an illegitimate use of 2 accounts. Sas comm:, , , , Kaldous:, , ,. To me, it's a WP:DUCK. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:03, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm not even sure what is happening. My name is Kyle Aldous, I graduated from Singapore American School in 2002. As of 2 months ago I became the Communications Director at the school. I noticed some of the information on our page was dated and thought it would be a good idea to update the page. I've never used Wikipedia before so I just used the school account that was already in place. When I edited it using the school account I got a message saying that the account looked like it was promotional so I created a personal account because I thought that's what I was supposed to do and now I'm being accused of trying to game the system, which was never my intent. I just want to get content posted that reflects the newest information and includes more history of the school. I had sources when I posted showing exactly where I got everything from the first few times I posted but they kept getting removed and it would say the material was not neutral. Like I said, I'm completely new to this, I just want to get accurate information posted. But I totally understand if I'm not allowed to edit - can I send the information I have gathered over to someone for them to look at and approve? Thanks for your help and patience with me as I figure out how this all works. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaldous (talk • contribs) 00:15, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Based on Kaldous's comments above, I've put this case on hold and left a message on Kaldous's Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:14, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Kaldous has agreed that he will only edit with his personal account. I've therefore indefinitely blocked (without tagging) Sas comm. Kaldous has also agreed that because of his obvious WP:COI he will propose any changes he wishes to make to the article on the article Talk page. I'm closing this SPI, but if there is further disruption, it may be reopened.--Bbb23 (talk) 04:12, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
