  • Supporting evidence:

All the accounts I have listed here are involved in this debate who supported a proposal to delete a controversial section, and these accounts have very little edits, and all their userpage sounds like it was written by one person. Deletion of well-cited information is obviously against any sort of consensus in the Wikipedia community and these accounts are obviously created for the sole purpose to skew consensus. I'm also suspecting that User:Carlisle Rodham, and User:Mrinal Pandey, who actively edits the article, may also be involved in this case as well. So far I have blocked all the obvious sockpuppets, which are accounts with few edits, and I just want to make sure that the less obvious sock puppets gets checked before any action are taken. 山本一郎 (会話) 10:54, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
