user:Sticky and Sweet creates articles for rock & pop tours - here's an example of edit 1 for Robbie Williams Live in Las Vegas. I've just challenged the user about COI [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Sticky_and_Sweet#COI? here].

Sticky and Sweet goes quiet, but up pops user:The1999, whose edit history has exactly the same mix as Sticky and Sweet; who who has just created Honey Tour using exactly the same template as Sticky and Sweet's tour articles, with hallmarks such as:
 * 1) fully formed on the first edit
 * 2) includes an infobox
 * 3) includes a background section
 * 4) same sort of wording: "After completing successful world stadium tour The Heavy Entertainment Show, Robbie will take to the stage for six ..."  versus "After releasing her seventh studio album in 2010, titled Body Talk, Robyn went..."
 * 5) includes a tour/show dates table
 * 6) inclues a navbox.

My suspicion is that this is a COI editor concerned with prompting upcoming tours - based on finding and removing quite a lot of gushing tabloid celebrity content and, especialy, ticketing information from a series of Sticky & Sweet's articles. Tagishsimon (talk) 20:59, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
