Suspected sockpuppets
Both accounts created within hours of one another, solely to bring certain New Zealand media personality articles to Afd, at times with strangely similar edit rationales: "Sources are not notable" Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brooke Howard-Smith, One4Onenz; "No sources that are notable," Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carly Flynn, KiwiMan.

- I came here to report the same two accounts based on the same concern with the same evidence. I see the accounts have not been notified of the SPI case yet; I will do so. Schwede66 17:31, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmed to each other:
Possible:
Behaviour suggests they are related to this KiwiMan SPI. -- zzuuzz (talk) 12:00, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- zzuuzz, do you want tags on them? --Blablubbs|talk 17:30, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, I think so thanks. I suppose KiwiMan is the appropriate tag, though it's not properly confirmed. I also suspect there may be more lurking out there somewhere. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:35, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I've tagged them as confirmed to LavrentiyRafail (talk · contribs), the oldest account in this group, and suspected to KiwiMan – please let me know if you want me to switch to proven. --Blablubbs|talk 17:40, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
