All three accounts appear to be SPA's who showed up to edit Terren Peizer after it finally came out of protection due to severe BLP issues. There has been a complaint to OTRS over the continued problematic edits (20080808100267322008080810026732) - these three accounts continue to revert to similar versions or add the exact same material (with even the referencing done exactly the same) repeatedly. One account will make two or three of these problematic edits and then stop; a little bit later another one will appear and make the same edits as if this was an attempt to avoid scrutiny or sanction. Sometimes they will revert a section to an earlier version and sometimes they will simply revert or re-add a paragraph - since this all looks rather hokey to me, but I wasn't certain there's enough to definitively call them socks, I was hoping for some other opinions (or suggestions). Thanks. Shell   babelfish 18:14, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

It seems that TheSeraph'sAdvocate = Ani4ani. Both of those accounts have been blocked indefinitely, and tagged (Ani4ani as the sock master, as that account was registered first, and TheSeraph'sAdvocate as a sock puppet). Due to insufficient evidence, I find it that BeltKingIn is linked to these sock puppets. However, further to the other two being blocked, this account may become the "main account" if it is indeed a 'puppet. Should this be the case, I'd recommend re-opening a fresh SSP case, or contacting me directly. Regards, Anthøny  19:39, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
