User:Joeshea User:70.126.22.247 and User:70.119.212.171

I noticed that User:Joeshea, User:70.126.22.247 and User:70.119.212.171 share a lot of similar edit history - making it almost certain that they are one and the same person. User:70.119.212.171 made a couple of edits to this article back in December 2005, as did User:70.126.22.247 (May/June 2007). This (admittedly circumstantial) evidence suggests that there is a risk that a WP:Autobiography rule violation has occurred. Someone should probably check that those edits are reasonable and unbiassed ones. It would also be possible that User:Joeshea is using other computers - so it's possible that other anonymous accounts have been used (User:70.119.208.31 - April 2006 - seems a likely candidate due to being very close in IP number range to 70.119.212.171). All four IP accounts belong to RoadRunner. SteveBaker (talk) 02:38, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
