Both SPA for editing Kyle Krone. The sockpuppeteer tried to add this edit into the main Kyle Krone article; eventually he was given a level 3 warning after continuing to insert the same prose here and here. After he left on the 23rd, the sock appeared and added the same content to their sandbox page to go through AfC, see here; note flowery, spammy prose like "Krone’s blend of California charisma and creativity have carved out a unique path for a refreshingly original and enigmatic musical talent." appears in both; the only difference appears to be formatting and a discography. After the AfC was rejected, the sock tried to insert the text into the main Kyle Krone article anyway where it was reverted. This seems pretty obvious.

Hello. Firstly, I'm apologies if I do something wrong, I'm new in Wikipedia, I'm from Spain and I read everything in our Wikipedia (in spanish). On the second hand, I'm trying to write a biography about an american artist (Kyle Krone) and I have received a message what tell me that I'm using multiple accounts. However it's not true. And he didn't know how to use wikipedia in the correct form either. I'm a new user. I don't understand this problem... I'm working with this artist and I would like to write this biography but if any sentence is not correct, please let me know. I can delete it. I have any reference for the veracity of the biography. Thanks a lot — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patricia.martinh (talk • contribs) 17:49, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello again. I asked help about this problem and Mr. Vernon help me. Now I know I have a "conflict of interest" because me and the artist are working together with press in Spain. I want to be honest and tell you the truth because I didn't know that could be a problem. Sincently, when I think in a wikipedia biography for Kyle Krone I did it thinking in the general interest of the enciclopedy, because I would like to share the information of this artist with users as other musician in wikipedia. I never thought in a personal interest, I would not have done it with that reason. However, now I know I have to write more scrutiny. I want to apologies for this conflict, If you let me try again I could be write it better. On the other hand, if you need verify something, tell me how can I help you.
