Code letter: G

Supporting evidence: There is trouble at {{article|Unidentified flying object}}, a battle over the lead, where there is an appearance that a swarm of single purpose accounts are all editing towards the same goal. The following diffs indicate a strong possibility of WP:SOCK or WP:MEAT, given that all these editors suddenly show up at the same place, at the same time, arguing for the same thing: sympathetic treatment of a fringe view.

This matter was originally reported at WP:ANI [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=219594158&oldid=219593712], which is how I became aware of it. Jehochman ^Talk 00:35, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

:They all appear to be {{unrelated}}, though it's difficult to know as they have all used open proxies at some time. {{User| WakeUpPoindexter}} is highly {{likely}} to be {{User|Davkal}}, though - Alison ^❤ 01:01, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

::The pre-test probability that these are Davkal-related was pretty high, and the use of open proxies is part of his MO. They look like a fairly clear-cut swarm of sock/meatpuppets created to influence a specific debate; the contribs are not those of truly new users; and given that and the checkuser evidence (use of proxies, technical ties between at least one account and Davkal) I've blocked them.

I found one more: {{checkuser|Biobeeing}}. Alison, please check it. Jehochman ^Talk 16:23, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Great minds think alike - just spotted that one and blocked it as matching the pattern of the others to a T. MastCell ^Talk 16:24, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

: {{confirmed}} - Alison ^❤ 21:19, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Two more for Alison. Jehochman ^Talk 23:56, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
