Rationale

• Reason: These five user accounts are all the typical SEO spambots. They spammed on New ships and Talk:New ships since the end of September by moving the page name and by adding (lots and lots of) spam links to the page, see here and here. I fully protected "New ships" for edits and moves and I did the same thing for moves of "Talk:New ships". Please check whether or not one single IP was used - which I doubt, because almost all accounts were created a long time ago and became active only recently.

Results

Likely Those named above and User:Rvnpervisvale are all likely socks. There are five different IP addresses among the six names -- only Nfkcheap and Rvnpervisvale overlap. All are blocked. .     Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 18:13, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

Nothing for us to do then. I removed the edit protection, but left it on moves and I put the page on my watchlist. Thanks. Trijnstel_talk 18:39, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
