Suspected sockpuppets

Articles about John Guest were previously deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Guest (researcher and author) in January, and by G7 in September at Draft:John Guest (author). Another page on the subject is now at AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Lindsay Robert Guest. The first article about Guest was created by NLA-Connections, the second seems to have mostly been edited by DustyStuff, and the third was created by Recordsdetective and has been edited by Saysinclair.

These accounts are all pretty much SPAs for Guest. The earliest account, NLA-Collections, was softblocked for a username violation in January, but the first four listed accounts are all active and are engaged in widespread WP:REFSPAM of his research.

I've also included Griffith8, who has only made two edits but has declared that they are the subject of the article.

Requesting checkuser as I suspect I might have missed other accounts engaged in the same refspamming of Guest's work on other pages. MCE89 (talk) 14:03, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
