 * This user was brought to my attention at User talk:Matthewedwards. I've deleted the article and WP:SALTed it for two weeks, and left identical messages at the talk pages of both accounts. At the moment I don't think this user is being intentionally disruptive, rather that he's just not getting the message. But yeah, it's pretty clear that they're one and the same.

 * Neither user has been blocked, so this doesn't appear to be a policy violation. Stifle (talk) 10:30, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Conclusions
Thanks for notifying us. I would like to agree with Matthewedwards and Stifle, and see how the conversation with Matthew goes first. This is preferable to blocking in this instance. Peter Symonds ( talk ) 19:44, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
