Content of user pages in each case is promotional spam about a particular artist, the accounts seem to have been created for this purpose only, would be good to be able to identify the full extent of this spam problem. nonsense ferret  22:10, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Evidence submitted to me directly. Timing of the edits, and nature of the spam (userpage spam), suggest that although it's spam for two separate people it may have been done by one agency.

✅ that the following are related: ✅ that the following are related: The above groups are ❌ to each other. The timing appears to have been a coincidence.

 * First group is blocked and tagged. Second group appears to have been with spamming intent, but only on a single page (the other account was the result of a typo). Leaving one of those accounts unblocked for now, as it is has not yet committed an intentional action that would warrant a block. Someguy1221 (talk) 07:55, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Recreating articles on Melody Federer, Melody Riffs and Celine Farach. There are other articles, but I've not got time to look into them. I've blocked per WP:DUCK and deleted the three articles. Peridon (talk) 21:42, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Good block. I"ve tagged the user. If more users come out CU may want to compare this user to any further socks. NativeForeigner Talk 20:51, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
