- Suspected sockpuppets
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Mc Kevitt
Look there, these 3 users have used similar incorrect format ("KEEP: Notable academic:" instead of "*Keep"), their votes are similar too.
Also, not very much related, but the suspected sockmaster is the subject of the article at AFD. TL22 (talk) 13:53, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I decided to remove the votes shortly after I made this report. This was the latest version before I removed the votes. You may wish to check the article history, too. --TL22 (talk) 13:59, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm new to Wikipedia and have only one account;
any Sockpuppetery was by ignorance rather than by intention. Paulmckevitt (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:54, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Little need for a magician to resolve this. Paul has no idea what sockpuppetry is, has been unwittingly doing it for a few days, and I doubt will continue doing it. perhaps a close would be good. -Roxy the dog™ (Resonate) 15:19, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Roxy, I will work on refraining from sockpuppetry (even unwittingly), thanks, Paul Paulmckevitt (talk) 15:31, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I've restored the subject's vote at the AfD. Removal of the IP votes made some sense, but the subject is entitled to vote. I've semi-protected the AfD and the article for one week. Based on the apparent unfamiliarity with policy, I'm closing this report with no further action. This is without prejudice to it being refiled if there is evidence of further disruption.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:22, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
