There has been suspicous behavior by the three above users at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brandon Law. It has been noted that all three accounts tag team each other in the discussion and are new accounts with user pages suspicously identical to other long established wikipedia users. Bpaftw appears to have only made three edits in the Wikipedia namespace, and five total. The current version of his very impressive user page[1] appears to be a clone of that of another, well-established user[2]. The same is also true of two other advocates of keeping the article who have made few other edits outside of it. Pbstrypsin's user page [3] looks identical to Art LaPella's page[4]. And Pdfreeman, who apparently spends a lot of time editing the Royal Military College of Canada article according to her user page[5] (but not her edit history), has a user page similar to a recent version of a user called Victoriaedwards[6] who does put a lot of work into that. Also, Pbstrypsin created a talk page with several messages from other users on it, but apparently there's only one single edit to this talk page: his own. The same thing happens with Bpaftw, who created a talk page containing already a message purportedly from 2005. I suspect that one person has created all three accounts and copy pasted other user pages to try and make them seem like legitimate different editors with the intent of trying to influence the AFD discussion in an unethical way.Nrswanson (talk) 23:24, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Additional evidence The article American Brain Cancer Foundation was created by User:Cmfoundation and subsequently speedily deleted on August 7. It was re-created and again speedily deleted on August 8 (I cannot see who re-created the article that time). It was again re-created on August 9 by User:Bpaftw. --Crusio (talk) 10:35, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Addition I see that Toddst1 has blocked almost all puppets in this case, but a few minutes ago another possible one popped up: User:Moraltimer, with two edits, one to Brandon Law and one to American Brain Cancer Foundation, where he removed a prod tag, but not the prod2 tag. I am not sure whether it is appropriate to undo this edit. --Crusio (talk) 16:54, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I suspect all these are socks of the original author - User:Cmfoundation. User:User:Pstremors was created by User:Ambcfoundation. Taking this to WP:RFCU Kevin (talk) 10:05, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Obvious sockpuppets. Given the coordinated attempts at manipulation of 2 AfD listings, blocked indefinitely. Toddst1 (talk) 16:43, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
