Removal of COI and Autobiography templates

I'm concerned about the three users Hudley, Bugler31, and Hamburglar1971, who between them have barely a hundred edits but each seem to want to be involved in this (new and obscure) page for some reason. Qworty has similar suspicions. Bugler31 claims just to be a newbie, but I see no denial from pagecreator Hudley that the user is the subject of this article. I have reasons to believe all three are accounts created by the same human being, perhaps for the purpose of creating and improving this page. I'd like to warn all three accounts that evidence of sockpuppetry is being left behind (perhaps inaccurate). If all three accounts are created by the same user, expect someone to find this out and indefinitely block them. If all three accounts aren't in fact linked, I apologize for my bold assertion; I tend to call a duck-like creature a duck. IMHO, the best outcome would be for all three accounts to leave this page alone. Removing templates calling experienced users to attend this page will be considered vandalism, and will be treated as such. If my assertion is correct, the subject is not doing himself wikicredit by acting in this unfortunate manner. The pedia needs formidable writers, even if they get off on the wrong foot. I've asserted notability, so it's unlikely the page would be deleted, but on the other hand active socking makes me less willing to continue to improve this page. Though I'm not done in this pagespace (the author is a perfectly worthy BLP subject), I'll continue when I see no signs of socking here. Please disagree with me here in this talkspace.

I would like to second this opinion, based on what I've seen of these accounts. Qworty (talk) 18:14, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
