 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

Repeated creation of articles about Carlos Westphall (under various spellings) following AFD. All other edits for most of these accounts have been attempts to re-create the article, or about his lab Network and Management Laboratory. Sole edit of User:Maisdeumavez was to remove maintenance tags from lab article in this edit. User:Passuser has just attempted to re-create the article under the spelling Carlos BecKer Westphall. That editor's only other edit was a week ago, adding a link to Westphall's name in the lab article. Gurt Posh (talk) 11:13, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

 * This is an exceedingly old case; except for Passuser, all the other accounts haven't edited in the last two years. There's no actual _abuse_ of accounts here per se, merely a very slow burning edit war with username changes. I'm closing this for now with no action taken, but relist if there are multiple accounts are being abused. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 12:28, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
