 * Evidence

As I was on the recent changes page, I noticed an edit to WWE Vengeance. I checked it out and it was vandalism. I undid it and looked on the history page. Recently a string of people had vandalized the page. I looked and the history page and list you see now did vandalism today on that page in a similar way. I gotta say, it looked like a pretty slick way to beat the rap and keep vandalizing, if I'm right.

The IPs are definitely socks of one another; not sure about the registered user. One has been blocked 31h independently, but the others left once the target article got s-protected, and they won't need to be blocked.

Looking at the recent article history even after the s-protection, we may still have to worry about sleeper socks. Please keep your eyes open. Shalom Hello 06:10, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Semi-protection should handle the IP's. As to the registered user, he's received an appropriate vandalism warning - anything further can be reported to WP:AIV for a block. There are some modestly useful edits in the history, so I'm not going to block him as vandalism-only at this point. MastCell Talk 19:31, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
