Evidence

History of this article The same edits, same content removal

similar bad faith accusations in the edit summaries

again same bad faith accusations

Comments

I suspect these are all the same person or are meatpuppets.

This person is not a "sockpuppet", there are merely a lot of people who are tired of Neon's heavy handed approach to several wiki pages along with his bad faith assumptions and threats. See his own page for more on this. Any staff checking the IPs or any other hard evidence will see this.(98.212.132.208 (talk) 02:51, 6 May 2008 (UTC))

I have made no such threats or assumptions of bad faith. Above user has been warned about not assuming good faith and vandalising the article. --neonwhite user page talk 02:53, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
based on the IPs, the anon IPs belong to two users, I am not in the US, but it seems they are from 2 states that are not close to eachother. However seeing as I obviously don't have access to checkuser I have no idea if either of those IPs match the IP of the registered account. The edit summaries of one of the IPs seems to match the edit summaries of the registered user. The rest of the IPs have not made enough edit summaries for me to come to a conclusion.
Neon, you should do a request for checkuser, however I can't see them coming up with anything, as I would guess it is not a static IP address.
One further comment, although sock puppetry is not acceptable in wikipedia, I would have to agree with the comments stating that you are a little eager to hand out vandalism warnings, I know you are not trying to troll users, but vandalism should only be stated for blatant acts of vandalism, not for content disputes. Try a revert with a clear summary, and then a message explaining why their edit is not acceptable.
