Recreation of a recently deleted article by this new account "Kevinsimon" after two other accounts were the primary editors of the original deleted article. I am unable to link to the diffs for their edits on this particular article as the history was deleted for non-admins. But as I recall the Shawnwelling account posted a personal testimonial on the talk page of the article which the Janderson37 account had created the first time. The user name Janderson37 suggests a conflict of interest with the article subject as well, and digging around both the name Kevin Simon and Shawn Welling appear on several sites with Jason Anderson as well. On the Project Aether article, the Shawnwelling account is active, as well as two specific accounts focused just on Shawnwelling projects as well Special:Contributions/MotionG and Special:Contributions/DizneDeeva with one additional account focusing on a related project Special:Contributions/Laceelove. These are either all the same editor (Shawnwelling) or a meat puppet all with the purpose of editing the Jason Anderson, Project Aether, and other Shawnwelling related articles. All 5 accounts are just being used for promotion of Shawn Welling related movies, organizations, and people.ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 03:21, 31 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment - I forgot to originally add the Kevinsimon account as well, which seems to have the same pattern. I've added it above. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 03:40, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Meat or sock? Let's find out. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 22:27, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅ Shawnwelling = DizneDeeva = Janderson37 = . MotionG is based on geography. Laceelove is . Dominic·t 03:18, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Kevinsimon is also ✅ as part of the above group. Dominic·t 05:00, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Blocked and tagged the confirmed accounts; blocked the master 3 days for puppeting. I'm going to leave MotionG alone for now as it seems to have gone quiet, but relist if it picks up. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 03:52, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Kevinsimon has also been blocked. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 14:15, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

This sock is reappearing with another recreation of the deleted material on Shawn Welling:. I note that the username is similar to one of the socks from before called Laceelove. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 15:02, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

✅ as being the same as :
 * is a match.  TN X Man  15:28, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The two confirmed sockpuppets were already blocked, and I blocked Laceygrantz per WP:DUCK (due to the similarity of username and recreation of the sockmaster's deleted material). Since all editors have been blocked I'm marking this as closed. --  At am a  頭 16:46, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

This sock is back again trying to promote Shawn Welling with a similar series of edits. I unfortunately can not link to the old diffs because they appear to have been deleted. But here are the new diffs:. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 00:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Fbg2012 is obviously a reincarnation of Shawnwelling. I have therefore indefinitely blocked, and tagged, this newest account. Please report any further accounts created by this individual, who is clearly using Wikipedia for self-promotional purposes.
