ZebraInTheDark and 100.1.124.180 have edited the same articles to insert the same text in the face of being reverted. Here are the editor interaction tool results. The first case is this change by 100.1.124.180 to the band biography Drive Like Jehu, adding "math rock" to the genre field. This was reverted a few minutes later, then ZebraInTheDark re-added "math rock" ten hours later. Another case is 100.1.124.180 inserting "power pop" to the Hostage Calm band biography a few months after ZebraInTheDark added "power pop". Another case is ZebraInTheDark adding "grunge" and "alternative rock" to the band biography Basement, getting reverted a day later, then 100.1.124.180 adding "grunge" and "alternative rock" back in two weeks later. More such cases: At Refused, "post-hardcore" and "post-hardcore". At Knapsack (band), "indie rock" and "indie rock". At Further Sky, "alternative rock" and "alternative rock". At Diary (Sunny Day Real Estate album), "post-hardcore" and "post-hardcore". This behavior, one account supporting the other, is not a simple case of editing while logged out; there appears to be some intentional doubling of accounts to push the preferred text in the face of being reverted. My goal here is to have this person use only one account, so that he or she can be fully accountable. Binksternet (talk) 13:00, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
