Over the last couple of months, several users have attempted to insert spam links to howflyhiphop.com on various rapper articles. The above users have all inserted the links, in the same manner - one link added in line in a mixtape section. All of them used the exact same formatting. Leads me to believe it's a case of sockpuppetry.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 00:11, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

. Obvious sockpuppet of Sockpuppet_investigations/Thatlife, which had a sizable sockfarm to add spam links to howflyhiphop in the exact same manner as the listed user. The name Energizerbunny (it keeps going and going) is a pretty unsubtle jab as well. Adding howflyhiphop to xlinkbot would be helpful, but I'm unsure about how to go about it.

 * History of sleepers, see if an IP block can be done too. Alexandria   (talk)  17:45, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

No sleepers. IP block looks a little premature right now. Please continue to report. Elockid  ( Talk ) 17:50, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Addition of spam link to howflyhip inline with MO of Thatlife et al., WP:DUCK. The spam has been persistent over a long period, and I had howflyhiphop added to the linkbot revert list but it doesn't seem to be working.  Falcon8765  (T ALK ) 23:07, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
