(Note: User:Shimmers77's edits have mostly been benign, however my suspicion is that the suspected puppet master is using the puppet account to make legitimate edits while the main account is being used for more controversial edits and personal attacks. Evidence of personal attacks: diff 1 - npa2 warning - diff 2.)
