They're suspended.

Guys, its a Holywill sockpuppet. The stub page they made up there admits it right in the intro...

If so, they're a ban evader, so everything they did should be undone; Hollywill 06 got suspended six months ago for grammar/spelling issues and the like.

v Even if they weren't, their edits would need rewriting because of their incomprehensiblilty.

Er, I mean they did mention Hollywill but they never claimed to be them, just that the work they're troping was made by them.

It's probably them, but that line didn't say so.

Well, I'm willing to bet that they are the same person. Both of their edits have the same level of grammar, spelling, context, and overall comprehensibility, and they have both made stub articles.

Mod check?

Can someone clean up the page they created for Arc Villain or should it just be cut?

Shadow8411 Since: Jul, 2019

It should be cut, since it was created and almost entirely edited by a ban evader (apart from some minor formatting fixes, which don't change this fact).

Edit: All of their edits have been reverted and Arc Villain has been put on the cutlist. Those Two Guys was initially created by them, but the page has been changed enough that it looks nothing like it did when it was first created, so I think it can be kept.
