Suspected sockpuppets




Evidence submitted by Rangoon11
I suspect that many or perhaps even all of the above accounts are controlled by the same person or by people acting closely in concert. All accounts are very new and were created at around the same time, all have only edited Canary Wharf and all have started editing that article at the same time. Based on editing behaviour on 13 November I strongly suspected that Space94856 was a sock controlled by the same person as Whicter595. I held back from making an SPI request to see if the behaviour continued. However yesterday Canary Wharf was then edited in rapid succession and an apparently co-ordinated manner by Leedhumton, Dumass7, Avatormindend and Sucmeduck, also all new accounts. I should add that a number of edits do also appear to be promotional. Rangoon11 (talk) 11:20, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Per this edit on my talk page, I've added another account, Ragoon34, to the list above. Seems just a few hours after the blocks went into effect, a brand new account showed up and started editing on the same page. Plus the new username is somewhat similar to the editor who initially reported this case. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:06, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

 * - Seems possible that they're the same - and based on the way the latter four accounts were all created within minutes of each other, I'd say there's a chance for sleepers as well. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:48, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
