Duplicate artist & odd activity

Here's a weird one - someone has created a duplicate of the Celldweller artist page as Celldweller II and added a ton of equipment to it... but it's all written in the first person (eg "I use this amp"), and while the gear seems accurate, some of the sources are super dodgy (eg adding manufacturer pages as sources that don't mention the artist).

Any thoughts on how you'd deal with this? It's clearly a new user who doesn't understand how Equipboard works... but I suppose there's a slim chance it's actually Celldweller trying to create & edit a new artist page that he controls personally. The new duplicate page has twice as much equipment listed as the original!

I mean, if it's actually Klayton / Celldweller, I'm going to feel super embarrassed calling him out for bad sourcing here...

GEAR:
  • M-Audio Oxygen 49 MK4
  • Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 (3rd gen)
  • JBL 305P MkII Powered 5" Two-Way Studio Monitor

Huh, great question. You are right to call out bad sources, that's what makes Equipboard what it is!

The user has made quite a few subs. https://equipboard.com/neptune1/submissions
