Suspected sockpuppets


ADeviloper and OutofTheBoxThinker have overlapped on a particular POV on autism rights advocacy and have similarly edited John Slegers of Cascade Framework; Lea verou and Lea Verou; and they have both extensively added unnecessary information to numerous articles about persons with autism. Neither seems to have a good grasp of notability or reliable sources.

Just after OOTBT removed AFC templates about Cascade Framework from his/her talk page,10:42 and 10:43, the AD account was created at 10:46, and went straight to editing Slegers and Cascade Framework.

After that, AD became more active than OOTBT, until today, when OOTBT appeared to restore a non-notable article that had been edited by both accounts (John Slegers). Immediately after OOTBT restored that article on 10 Feb 20:34,[1] AD blanked his/her talk page at 20:52.[2]

Both accounts have been active on autism talk pages, promoting the same ideas with similar language. OOTBT here and here, for example, and AD has recently been disruptive on article talk. AD's disruption on article talk is too much to diff: see Talk:Asperger syndrome [3] and Talk:Autism.[4]

With the considerable overlap in articles, writing style on autism topics, and recent disruption on article talk, a CU is requested. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:02, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
