User:EdPuw created the page Edmwnd Harri Puw and several linked articles. These are at best non-notable, and at worst hoaxes. They have been identified as such by admins on the Welsh wikipedia (much easier to spot there, as there are far fewer contributors) and the articles have been deleted and the user banned indefinitely. The user now seems to be spawning. See, for example, the favourable comments added to User talk:Hebog to make it appear a long-standing user talk page. Deb 21:05, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Evidence

I've added another sock puppet, 'Day-Of-The-Moon'. There was one more, created today or yesterday, but I can't find it. It was on the Edmwnd Harri Puw article's history but that's gone. The user front pages, where they exist, all link to each other, and the three hoax (ex-)articles and references to them added in other articles are all by the same set of users/sock puppets. If I can find the additional sock puppet I'll add it above. Enaidmawr 22:34, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Found it! User:Friday112 (added above). Used to revert my reversion of a "Puw"-related edit to B4233. Enaidmawr 22:41, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Although not a sock puppet, the IP adress 91.125.77.171 has also been widely used in "Puw" edits. Enaidmawr 22:47, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
