Evidence

Similar names for the accounts themselves. Each account (and the IP) has been running around for the last few days making edits to articles such as Wanderlei Silva, Chow Yun-Fat, and Beyond (band) inserting nonsense pictures and information. After vandalism is reverted, either the same account or one of the socks changes it back.

For example, here Jasonmarmar changed Silva's picture to some nonsense he uploaded. After I reverted it, here the IP returned to put it back.

On Chow Yun-Fat, the IP added a nonsense picture as an external link here, reverted by a bot. JasonTCMar then uploaded the exact same image to Wikipedia and changed the "image:" tag on the article to link to it. After another user reverted it, the IP put it back. Jasonmarmar then later appeared to resize the same image.

JasonTCMar created a fake page for a non-existent actor (Jason Tung Cheung Mar, coincidental I'm sure...) with nothing more than a description of a Chow Yun-Fat movie. He then immediately afterward edited the page of Beyond (band) to add this person as an alleged member of the band. He was reverted, and this very same information has been added to that page repeatedly by the IP (see its contribs page for proof, too many diffs to add).

Comments

Likely First & third user seem very likely to be the same person. After checking contributions, all 3 followed the same pattern of editing (in Edison Chen, Chow Yun-Fat, Beyond (band), and Wanderlei Silva) OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 05:45, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conclusions

Main account blocked 48 hours, sock account indef blocked. IP hasn't edited for a while, so no block at this stage. _GB^T/C 11:14, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
