 * I am no sockpuppet. I have been editing today at a library. It is downright foolish to claim I would create sockpuppets to vandalize Wikipedia. What have you seen that makes you think this is sockpuppetry? None of my edits were vandalism. Beerest 2  talk 23:20, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my mistake. Forgot to remove you. Blurred Lines  23:24, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that. I've had a long enough history that I would know not to vandalize. Have a nice day. Beerest 2 talk 23:26, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Same to you. Blurred Lines  23:46, 7 December 2013 (UTC)


 * To me this looks more like a bunch of SPAs just trolling. I doubt any of them will be back (Hi the man and Savebriangriffin don't appear to have done anything after)  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 01:37, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
 * As I say in my email to Taylor, I believe this is just some stupid single purpose accounts making good faith edits but not really getting the point. Beerest 2 talk 01:54, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
 * That's because the article has been semi-protected, in which means that autoconfirmed users only can edit it, those accounts were just created, that means that they can't edit the article right now, in which I fear that 5 days after the article is unprotected, they will come back for sure.

 * The behavioural evidence doesn't really convince me, I think it's just as likely that these are unrelated users all trying to get the same thing in the article which they saw on TV. But I'll leave this open for others to comment. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 01:20, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't really care if they are socks or not. Vandalism-only accounts are now all blocked indefinitely. Closing. Reaper Eternal (talk) 12:49, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
