Suspected sockpuppets

If you check out their contributions its quite obvious. I'm assuming this is a case of a strictly COI editor not being aware of Wikipedia protocol. Usually I would try to convert, but, this doesn't seem viable (but I encourage others to give it a go!). Sarah (talk) 22:26, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have add the account Helpalot2, which is similar. -- Dianna (talk) 14:22, 5 April 2012 (UTC) Also: User:Mistress9. --Dianna (talk) 14:24, 5 April 2012 (UTC) And how did I miss Helpalot? -- Dianna (talk) 14:43, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Clerk note: Can someone please contact this user and get them on one account and we'll block the rest before more come in? -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 14:04, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • The give away was in deleted revision of User:Helpalot4 (as of 2012-02-02, at 06:31:42) by Helpalot4: "this is NOT REAL. For a class project." Somehow they have managed to clock up hundreds of edits undetected. There is nothing to "get on one account". — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:54, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is NOT a class project – this is childish and blatant disruption and a waste of the project's resources. All accounts indefinitely blocked and tagged as sock puppets of Helpalot. --MuZemike 01:22, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
