All these accounts and the sockmaster are exclusively interested in changing the Ben Heine article to a completely new version, which each wanting the same version. [1] They are all recent accounts (Caring writer 17 March, the other three 28 and 29 March), with no edits outside this. Telling is that Yellow-necklace created the user page for Cute-snoopy [2]. Note also the similar look of three of the four usernames. If they aren't socks, then they are clearly meatpuppets. Fram ( talk) 09:56, 29 March 2011 (UTC) reply

Thanks, Tnxman307. As I am involved in a content discussion with the checkusered editor, I will not take any action based on this SPI, but will leave this to any other (uninvolved) admin. Fram ( talk) 14:36, 29 March 2011 (UTC) reply

  • Ramiachcar ( talk ⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser( log) · investigate · cuwiki) is on a different IP/computer in the same city as the others. I would say they're related, but whether they're the same person as the above users or an associate is unclear. TN X Man 13:51, 29 March 2011 (UTC) reply
•  Administrator note I've blocked and tagged the confirmed socks (and Ramiachcar as well per WP:DUCK), and blocked the master 2 weeks for puppeting. And the autoblock appears to have been kicked in for the IP. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 02:48, 30 March 2011 (UTC) reply
