:Agree that sockpuppetry is quite probable here. Behaviour and interests seems matched. Something unusual about the Zeitgeist Films account, though: the user creation log has no entry for the creation of this account.—Kww(talk) 15:49, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

:While 'Nardo was created on July 8, it's clear that there's something fishy about how he immediately removes a speedy template on his first edit. I have a feeling that there's sock/meatpuppetry here. (X! · talk)  · @937  ·  21:29, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

• Username blocks don't give rise to block evasion problems; if Bernardo is Zeitgeist Films, he's free to edit. Nathan ^T 21:30, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

::SPI was started before Zeitgeist's username block. WuhWuzDat 21:47, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

:::At most its a 3RR violation; neither account has edited in two weeks, does it seem like blocking is necessary at this point? Nathan ^T 21:52, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
