Other features of the suspected sockpuppets
 * Only edited these articles
 * Use of edit summary
 * Edits are radical content removal

It should be noted that I am not commenting on the merit of the content removal rather than on the use of single purpose accounts to make it appear that such removal was supported by multiple editors and to comment at the AfD. TerriersFan (talk) 21:02, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

I really dont know what to do here? You could request CheckUser because I can assure you that I have nothing at all to do with these accounts. I am sorry if editing an article multiple times makes me a puppeteer. I have never 'radically' removed content from London Oratory School. Most have just been spelling, removing vandalism etc. I put the Schola article for deletion for what I thought were good reasons. I have been an editor for over a year now and I have never vandalised in any way at all and I thought that I was fairly reputable. You might have to move this because I have no idea where I'm supposed to put my reply to your incorrect accusations. WazzaMan (talk) 10:39, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

 * This appears to a reference to Suspected sock puppets/Sgt. bender. TerriersFan (talk) 19:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

The four suspected socks are all obvious SPAs/SOCKs of someone. This makes this different from the Sgt. bender case. I'm blocking the four accounts and warning Wazzaman, whose third edit was to London Oratory School. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 01:44, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
