I would say put User:MikeHalpert as the sockpuppeter, as the sockpuppeter seems to work in a dynamic IP range and this account seems to be the oldest. --WinHunter (talk) 16:55, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I guess that might be right. But it would require page moves and redirects...It is probably just better to leave it this way. I didn't know about User:MikeHalpert until today when User:Brewcrewer added it, but I created the report last night. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:57, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I just meant the actual tagging, not the report. I am now changing the tags to sockpuppeter MikeHalpert i/o the IP. I am fine with leaving the report this way. --WinHunter (talk) 17:04, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I see. Thanks for your help. - Rjd0060 (talk) 17:06, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Conclusions
Obvious socks, all accounts involved blocked indef and IP involved given only temporary ban since the sockpuppeter works on a dynamic range. Temporarily semi-protected Spam King to prevent further vandalism by the sockpuppeter's IPs. --WinHunter (talk) 17:18, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
