The first edit made by 152.121.18.253 was changing Carson Palmer to Steve Ferrel in the infobox. Then, 5 minutes later Sferrell0081 changed Carson Palmer in the article to Steve Ferrell. Baseball  Watcher  21:12, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

I think what's happened here is that the person registered an account after seeing that their IP was visible, or possibly registered it for more lulz, since Sferrel0081 is clearly a reference to the thing he's changing in the article. Checkuser isn't necessary; they're pretty clearly the same person. Warning the user that they should probably stick to a single account, and not edit while logged out, is all that's necessary here. --(ʞɿɐʇ) ɐuɐʞsǝp 23:39, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Things have gone quiet, so I'll mark for close. More disruption can be reported here or at AIV. TN X Man  13:54, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
