- User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
The first three accounts are mutually editing the Cat Creek, Montana article, adding some info but also pushing a hoax that there are lions in the town, claming as a source a local book "very credible in our community" of which "only a handful of copies are floating around". Stateofmontana joined in removing the hoax tag at one point as its only edit. Sounds like a duck quacking into a megaphone to me, requesting CU for confirmation and sleeper check. The Bushranger One ping only 12:15, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
- User:Catcreek reinserted the hoax information into the article despite semiprotection. After looking through things once more I've blocked User:Catcreekcitycouncil, User:Catcreek and User:Timothyjohnson12 as loudly quacking ducks with a side order of disruptive editing (the reinsertion of unreliably sourced/hoax material); it's obvious that either socks or meatpuppetry is afoot. Keeping the CU request up to check if User:Stateofmontana is part of the same farm and to check for additional sleepers. - The Bushranger One ping only 09:28, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.
Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
- Clerk declined, as stated the accounts are very clearly related SPAs, either socks or meats. Checkuser is unlikely to establish anything of importance that we can't already see. This is extremely localised abuse of an article which before this was not active nor high-traffic, so I recommend an admin semis the page for some length of time and leaves it at that. Kind regards, Spitfire 10:34, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
- Well, it had been semi'd, but that didn't stop at least one of the accounts from re-hoaxifying it. Fair enough though, thanks for taking a look. :) - The Bushranger One ping only 10:40, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry, temporary blindness on my part. I expect that the semi alongside the block of Catcreek should resolve the issue, at least for a fortnight, so I'll close this. If the issue continues following (or during) the protection then please relist or reprotect; I'll also watchlist the page and try and keep an eye out as best I can. Many thanks, Spitfire 10:46, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
