 * Evidence submitted by P. D. Cook  Talk to me!


 * Comments by accused parties    See Defending yourself against claims.


 * Comments by other users


 * Clerk, patrolling admin and checkuser comments
 * Obviously the same person. The original account was spamusernameblocked I note, so it might be that he thought he was doing the right thing by creating a new account with a more neutral name. We don't normally require new users who are blocked for their user name to go through a name change, but advise them to create a new account instead. It can be interpreted that he did just that, and that's not quite block evasion either. Of course, it's a bad sign that he immediately repeated his edit, and disregarded the note he received. Nonetheless, I would leave it with a stern warning that this kind of edits are not appreciated. Amalthea  19:31, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Left him a note. I'll probably notice if he continues with promotional edits, but feel free to notice me, Pdcook. I don't expect it, but should he create another account and cross into abusive socking then please reopen this. Amalthea  19:44, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
