Appears to be a very basic situation of sock/meatpuppetry. WikiBalandina has engaged in long-term edit warring on The Reader Magazine. Today, AntoineBuild, a new user, restores WikiBalandina's preferred, promotional version of the article. [1] [2] I also have a feeling User:Ginger2020 may have been another sock, but that account's long since been abandoned. Sro23 (talk) 16:47, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Apparent COI editors on The Reader Magazine, removing negative content and adding more or less the same fluff that was added by socks in 2016. Sro23 (talk) 17:52, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator note I already blocked MarcusRaskin7 24 hours for edit warring, but I second the sockpuppetry concerns, especially given how quick to anger this editor was when reverted. Also note that the original account was in conflict with Grayfell ([3]), and the two accused sockpuppets have specifically targeted him in their edit summaries: [4], [5]. clpo13_(talk) 18:27, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
