 * Upon reviewing contribution logs, I no longer suspect that the vandal detailed below is the user Soccermeko. See below for more info.
 * The info I have compiled is not all directly related to this case, as it involves past behavior of one user's multiple accounts but not all of the other accounts in question, but I submit it here as it establishes a pattern. Note that I compiled this information in early January, so it does not include recent developments. In addition to lacking more recent accounts and a possibly expanded overall pattern, it says that the user has basically never cooperated in any way shape or form. User_talk:Lilwaynefan08 has since cooperated to a limited degree, though seemingly only half-heartedly. Anyway, here's the info I compiled when I was planning on filing my own sockpuppet report before Lilwaynefan08 finally started to at least attempt to learn how to obey copyright laws: User:Icarus3/Sockpuppets of Joey5805. Edit: I sometimes referred to myself in the third person on this page. This is not intended to obscure my involvement, as the diffs show that I was often the "other editor". I originally intended it to be something anyone could add evidence too (supported with diffs, of course), which would have made first-person references ultimately inaccurate.
 * As for the accounts listed in this report that are not covered in my page, I cannot endorse or refute that suspicion. I have not looked into those accounts to the extend that Mdsummermsw has, so I do not know if there is compelling evidence or not. For what it's worth, however, I too have been watching Soccermeko with the suspicion that he may be Joey5805/Lilwaynefan08. --Icarus (Hi!) 16:46, 14 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I have noticed another related user: - see  Cloudz679 (talk) 16:00, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Upon viewing Soccermeko's contribs, I do not think that this user is the same as Joey5805/Jayjay47/Diamondfan07/Lilwaynefan08. Soccermeko has contributions going back to December 2006, whereas that user started editing almost a year after that and showed all the hallmarks of being a new editor with no prior experience. Soccermeko may have some similarities in that they both repeatedly create articles about non-notable subjects within the same music genre, but do not see any compelling evidence that they are the same user. I currently take no position on whether or not Soccermeko is the same user as the other suspected sockpuppets, as I have not looked into those contribution histories. --Icarus (Hi!) 01:19, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Infostorm has been blocked indefinitely as a sockpuppet of Soccermeko. Cloudz679 (talk) 18:11, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Conclusions
 * Blocked master 1 week. Other listed users I'm not convinced of. Infostorm is pretty convincing. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 01:29, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
