Evidence

• All accounts used solely for the editing of items related to articles The Realm of No!/The realm of no! (Deletion log for the former: [1]).
• When article was deleted, newly created user Hermossa13 recreated the page under The realm of no!, and proceeded to defend the article as having been deleted due to a vendetta against it.
• Item is an unpublished/rejected home-brew adventure for a roleplaying game, of which fewer than a dozen copies may exist and which all three users appear to have a rather strong opinion on the notability of; as such, it is unlikely that this many people would know of it and would appear here all at once (all accounts created within the past couple of days) to create articles related to it.

• Obvious same user making multiple edits under at least 2 seperate IPs, one of which is located in the state of Virginia of US and the other the other located Amsterdam of the Netherlands.

Comments

Added two user IPs and reason for the addition. Chuckie berry (talk) 01:13, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Added another IP which is editing article to remove AfD tags with the same style comments as others. -- g026r (talk) 02:26, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Added another sock account Chuckie berry (talk) 04:55, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Added two more accounts. -- g026r (talk) 05:05, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm only seeing edits from User:130.149.160.175 and User:190.50.192.32 and they don't appear to overlap. Were others deleted? MBisanz ^talk 21:48, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, the various articles and images the other accounts had created or edited have since been deleted. -- g026r (talk) 15:26, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Conclusions

It is beyond reasonable doubt that these are the same user. I will tag and block all of them as there is evidence of serious disruption. Jehochman ^Talk 21:35, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

130.149.160.175 (talk · contribs) was previously blocked as a Tor node. Edits from that account may represent more than one user. Jehochman ^Talk 21:48, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
