Pair of accounts tag-team editing/creating promotional articles for topics all connected to Genii Capital. Accounts alternate editing to remove speedy deletion notices. WP:DUCK, and all that. MikeWazowski (talk) 15:50, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I've added GregoryDavid1988 to the list - another new account that showed up to contest some deletions - given that CU turned up another sock I wasn't aware of, it seemed prudent to check this one as well. MikeWazowski (talk) 16:35, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I've added TomBerg23 - looks like they haven't given up.... MikeWazowski (talk) 14:52, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Re: behavioral evidence - he just recreated Eric Lux, one of the Genii articles. Only other edits have been to Gerard Lopez (businessman), another Genii related article. MikeWazowski (talk) 16:31, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

 * I've blocked and tagged TomBerg23 on behavioral grounds. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:42, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

 * A to  technical match to TomBerg23. WilliamH (talk) 17:49, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
 * - Looking for a possible comment from Elockid as he blocked it as a sock, wondering if a check was involved. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  15:09, 14 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Same conclusions as William. Elockid (Alternate) ( Talk ) 15:39, 14 November 2011 (UTC)


 * closing this case as Elockid did respond. Leaving it up to another clerk if tagging is warrented  Alexandria   (talk)  18:13, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

 * seeing if an IP block is possible as well. Alexandria   (chew out)  15:59, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Appears technically /❌, but WP:GIANTDUCK. I've blocked the IP for 3 days, and the account indefinitely. No comment on any association between the two. WilliamH (talk) 19:36, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
