 * Evidence
 * There has been a long history of vandalism to the Glasvegas article. RabAllan vandalised the page (diff) which was to do with Paul Carlin (seemingly at DJ at Real Radio in Scotland). RabAllan has also vandalised by incorrectly changing the line-up of the band (diff). Wooz1's account was created on 9 January 2009 and immediately started vandalising the Glasvegas article (diff) before continued to vandalise by changing the line-up in the same way as RabAllan (diff) and adding references again to Paul Carlin (diff). Caylinfm has also been vandalising Real Radio (Scotland) with the same "Aye yip, eh, i'm gay" in the edit summary which is prevelant in the other users' vandalism (diff) as well as vandalising Glasvegas by adding Paul Carlin to the line-up (diff). KingFundament has only vandlised Glasvegas, using similar vandalism to Wooz1 (diff), as has JasonCulluv (diff). I've not included every instance of the vandalism (as there has been so much), nor have I included vandals which have already been blocked and who have vandalised in similar ways. --JD554 (talk) 16:15, 12 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Adding Bobbyjrobertson who has started vandalising with the same edit summary as used previously by the other other suspect sockpuppets(diff). --JD554 (talk) 20:02, 12 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Adding Winslowseatbelt who has been vandalising Glasvegas and Real Radio (Scotland) in the same manner(diffdiff), and Gordivv who is vandalising Real Radio (Scotland) in the same manner (diff). --JD554 (talk) 08:07, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Going back further in the history of the two articles, I've realised there is a link between this case and a previous case I reported at Suspected sock puppets/PaulCarlinNakedOnDuty in September 2008: Plasteg's vandalism to Glasvegas and Real Radio (Scotland) is similar to the ones described above with references to black mass and Paul Carlin (diff,diff,diff) and to anus (diff). This report also inlcuded the now blocked user PaulCarlinNaked who also vandalised Glasvegas with references to black mass (diff).
 * JamesAllansHole has also vandalised Glasvegas with the reference to anus (diff) as well as more general vandalism (diff). This user isn't blocked, but hasn't edited since 10 December 2008.
 * Winsberg21, as well as attempting to make bad faith AfD nominations for It's My Own Cheating Heart That Makes Me Cry (diff) and Go Square Go! (diff) in the same manner as RabAll (diff, diff) has also vandalised Kyle Falconer with use of anus (diff, diff).
 * Mark Kavanagh QC made a bad faith WP:SPEED request (diff), similar to RabAllan's and Winsberg21's bad AfD attempts already mentioned.
 * IanCooke666 has also vandalised Glasvegas with references to anus (diff) and made references to "appalling vandalism" in edit summaries (diff, diff). User has also made bad faith speedy delete requests (diff) similar to Mark Kavanagh QC as well as vandalising Kyle Falconer in a similar way to Winsberg21 (diff).
 * MarkLapping has also vandalised Glasvegas using references to anus (diff, diff) and has subsequently been blocked for vandalsim.
 * Eils O'ee has vandalised Glasvegas with "horrendous vandalism" in the edit summary (diff)
 * KyleFundament, as well as having a similar username to KingFundament, has vandalised Real Radio (Scotland) with edits related to Paul Carlin (diff) as well as vandalising the Glasvegas talk page (diff) and Go Square Go! with identical vandalism (diff)
 * Denzen O'Brie (already blocked for vandalism) has vandalised Kyle Falconer similarly (diff) as well as makiing reference to appalling vandalism in the same edit.

 * RabAllan (having been indef blocked) has created a new account RabAllanReturns and reverted the above vandalism by SidneyCooke21 to James Allan (musician) with a similar edit summary as RabAllan used on the Glasvegas article (diff).

I have blocked all but, and  where I'd rather err on the side of caution until further edits prove either way. I have indef blocked due to the username and associated implications but would feel that he can prove that he is the person in question a month block should stay in place due to the vandalism and sock puppeteering.

 * I have protected the article in question for a little while to allow things to calm down - from a cursory glance at the article history I suspected some sockpuppeteering. Agathoclea (talk) 21:02, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
