Suspected sockpuppets


Also perhaps

Evidence submitted by JamesBWatson
Wftpserver was blocked indefinitely for spam, essentially concerning repeated creation of an article variously titled Wing FTP Server or Wing ftp server. The article has been deleted four times under these two titles, and Wing FTP Server is creation-protected. The user Hedong1982 has now appeared, and his/her only editing is creating the article yet again, now called Wing File Server, and adding the software which is the subject of the article to List of FTP server software, which had previously been done by Wftpserver and reverted. In Hedong1982's and Wftpserver's contributions to List of FTP server software use to a large extent the exact same wording, certainly much more so than could conceivably be the case for two independent edits. The IPs listed also have no edits not related to this article, and their edits include such activity as repeatedly removing speedy deletion tags from it. AfD notices and perhaps other tags were likewise repeatedly removed from previous versions of the article, and at least one of these removals was done by 60.176.54.76. IP user talk pages also have warnings about other unspecified removal of content, which may or may not have been similar. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:55, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Blocked and tagged Hedong1982. 60.186.221.98 is the most recent IP used, so blocked that for a short amount of time. Unfortunately, a rangeblock doesn't look likely as the range is to big.  E lockid  ( Talk ) 00:23, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Wftpserver2010 blocked and tagged. I'm gonna leave the IP alone for now since it hasn't edited in days.  E lockid  ( Talk ) 04:04, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
