[edit] Britisharchitecturefoundation23

  • Code letter: G In fact the previous socks are already blocked indefinitely, making this case a simple F.

Massive self-promotion in article on Marco Casagrande, (re)creation of Casagrande & Rintala , Bird Hangar, Land(e)scape, 60 Minute Man (architecture). The main article was stubbified and others deleted after previous AfD dicussion (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marco Casagrande), but new puppets have emerged to restore the deleted content.

Unrelated. However, there are possibly relations between all the account except Britisharchitecturefoundation23. We're looking into it. --Deskana (banana) 01:07, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Well, BAF23 is unrelated to the above, who are all geographically related to each other. Nevertheless, I must call the results Inconclusive, if bordering on Possible. Mackensen (talk) 01:16, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Concur with Mackensen. There is likely something going on here, but it's hard to tell exactly what. --Deskana (banana) 01:25, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

These users appear to be at the forefront of an astroturfing campaign to promote Marco Casagrande and his firm, Casagrande Labs. They are creating articles that serve no real purpose except as promotion, citing no sources but their own. They have created multiple redirects that are otherwise implausible, such as C-LAB. They have seeded other legitimate articles with links to their own articles, usually without citing a connection to the other article. DarkAudit 03:07, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
