- Evidence
New account SabbathForever2007 immediately began editing with typical SEGA obsessions
- altering Black Sabbath credits contrary to consensus and WP:ALBUM, despite warning[1]
- uploading album art (previously copyvio, now may be legal as claimed)
- obsessed with Geoff Nicholls, [2] demoting Nicholls on Black Sabbath pages listing him in Credits/Personnel section
Confirmed SEGA socks with similar behavior:
- Rumitoid (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
- OneLove1977 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
Requested on user's talk page he stop these edits. Initial replies were typical refusals, but after being reported to WP:AN/I,[3] said he would stop changing formatting here (note aggressive Talk page style, another SEGA trait), while continuing to upload art (apparently with correct copyright tags).
Has since reneged on format changes, resuming campaign[4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. This campaign makes regular cleanup work for WP:ALBUM and watchers of those pages.
Has deleted {{Sockpuppet}} template and categories from User page a couple times, with Edit summary: "Rolled back vandalism by User:Edgarde". Has not denied being the banned user.
RunLikeAnAntelope resumes the work of former SEGA socks for the band Phish. Apparently on good behavior; offense may be limited to sockpuppetry evading block.

- Conclusions
RunLikeAnAntelope is definitely Sega, and as checkuser confirms that Steph11 is the same user, that one has been blocked as well. SabbathForever2007 also shows SEGA's characteristic interests and aggression. Socks have been blocked, in the process of cleanup of images/edits/creations per WP:BAN.
