Possible ResearchEditor sockpuppets. All added the exact same information and citations to multiple pages using a series of throwaway accounts. The POV and sources suggest RE, promoting the discredited idea that there's any weight to the [[satanic ritual abuse]] moral panic, the use of the [[extreme abuse surveys]] (G4 speedied as a recreation of the [[Extreme Abuse Survey]] with an AFD [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Extreme Abuse Survey|here]]) and Randy Noblitt's discredited beliefs about satanic ritual abuse. All are [[WP:SPA|single-purpose accounts]] that have only one topic's worth of edits, and redlinked talk and user pages. If it's not RE, then I would be very surprised, and even if not I can't concieve that it's not someone else sockpuppeting. If not RFCU-ed, accounts should probably be blocked anyway for [[WP:SPAM|spamming]].

That seems to be the lot. Possible ResearchEditor sockpuppets. All added the exact same information and citations to multiple pages using a series of throwaway accounts.

:The following are {{likely}} as ResearchEditor:

#{{vandal|Brewopco}}

#{{vandal|Turtleshell2go}}

#{{vandal|Raspla42}}

#{{vandal|Toswi82}}

#{{vandal|Reccaban2}}

There's hardly any overlap between these accounts, but they all appear to be editing in the same general area. <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">[[User:Nishkid64|Nishkid64]] </span>_{([[User talk:Nishkid64|Make articles, not wikidrama]])} 21:38, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

:Msbvben and Donrus22 demonstrate knowledge of intricate ref formatting from their first edits. These two articles seem to fit in ResearchEditor's topics of interest, so I think a block can be made based on behavior. I haven't looked over the ArbCom decision involving ResearchEditor in its entirety, but does an indefinite block seem appropriate in light of the new sockpuppetry? <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">[[User:Nishkid64|Nishkid64]] </span>_{([[User talk:Nishkid64|Make articles, not wikidrama]])} 21:54, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

::I am currently reading over the ArbCom case, and will make that decision here shortly. Also, consider the other two accounts blocked.
