 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by Barek

The account for Team unicorn was blocked for repeated re-creation of promotional material for various bands and musicians, all of which were speedy deleted under A7 "an article about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject". The user was blocked at 17:34 (UTC), and at 17:39 (UTC), the account of Ty88 was created and began creating the same articles (Note: the capitalization varied on the second word of the articles created). Suggest blocking both, as well as the underlying IPs.

He was able to create a new account because was softblocked. Thus, account creation was left open to him. Let's see how it goes with the autoblock enabled before getting the checkusers involved. Best, Peter Symonds ( talk ) 19:23, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
