– This SPI case is open.

Suspected sockpuppets

As per tools, there is significant edits that overlap. They all seem to vote on the same articles and vote the same way. Previous sockpuppet investigations have shown that the behaviors are questionable.

There seems to be consistent meatpuppetry between the stated accounts. They vote with each other 95% of the time. MDTEMP listed 7 highly referenced articles, 6 of which are of African American Athletes all at once. Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/James Thompson (Judo), Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/George Cofield, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Ernest R. Smith, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Odell Terry, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Chester Evans, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Robey Reed and Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Karl Geis (judo). The only one to survive the AFD so far are Karl Geis (judo) (who happens to be white) and James Thompson (Judo) who was a national champion and member of the US National Team.CrazyAces489 (talk) 13:22, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Comment as per WP:MEATSIGNS "Always there when needed: This is one of the more suspicious signs of all. If there are two accounts that frequently are seen commenting in occasional common discussions, but rarely are involved in discussions otherwise, this could be a sign that one person is actually there to support the other. If the evidence shows these accounts are not operated by the very same person, it is more likely to be meat puppetry."CrazyAces489 (talk) 14:20, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
comment additionally, there collusion between these three clearly seem to violate WP:OWN via there consistent adding and deletion of articles they seem to fit their own criteria of WP:MMANOTE and WP:MANOTECrazyAces489 (talk) 14:29, 11 March 2015 (UTC)


Comments by other users

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.

This is hard not to take personally considering the time and effort that have gone into making the avalanche of barely literate articles produced by the accuser more palatable including very polite advice via talk pages. I am certainly not the only one of the editors named (and there are others also) to have done so. My contributions to wikipedia includes making sure newly created martial arts articles are integrated into the whole and also any of those articles put up for deletion so that they are picked up by interested editors. I also have a habit of checking user contributions so yes when someone like User:Mdtemp puts an article up for AfD (most often for good reason) I will often check if there are others (he does it in spurts) and edit both the AfD and the article. There certainly is no collusion although User:Mdtemp may accuse me of stalking if he wishes.

What we have are a number of editors interested in maintaining martial arts articles being brought together by poorly written articles, full of factual errors, and of questionable notability. I wont even get into the number of times those articles have demonstrated an almost perverse misunderstanding of the subject area. Similar voting is not due to a conspiracy of knitted goods but rather a shared interest and obvious choices.Peter Rehse (talk) 13:34, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

CommentPRehse, please familiarize yourself with WP:NPA. This isn't the first investigation that has been made against Mdtemp and Papaursa. CrazyAces489 (talk) 14:18, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

You're correct. Those other discussions stemmed from the bitter MMA disputes of a few years ago. Note that no misbehavior was found in those earlier accusations. The fact that we're voting to delete poorly sourced, non-notable articles does not make us the bad guys. If you wrote better articles with good sources, as you have been frequently advised to do, your articles wouldn't keep winding up at AfD. As far as I can tell from his posts, PRehse and I aren't even on the same continent. Seems like CrazyAces is just upset about us trying to maintain some standards. Apparently I'm also being accused of bigotry by the editor accusing others of violating WP:NPA. Mdtemp (talk) 19:14, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment I must object I've noticed the lister here added me today onto the list of IPs here. (1) without notifying me or (2) providing any evidence to suggest there is any link with anyone else listed here. Given he's previously accused me of WP:HOUND for tidying up references on articles userfied in his space, complaining several months after I did that and in retaliation for pointing out his ignoring of the consensus reached at a DRV, also then listed at AN/I here where the result was to find nothing wrong in my actions and a suggestion he learn to take criticism better. Today I have been on the opposite side to a with him where he has again repeated those false allegations and now listed me here (as above, no evidence, no notification), I have frankly had enough, he is clearly trying to silence any critics by raising these false allegations. I would request sanctions against him for raising such frivolous claims. --86.2.216.5 (talk) 20:39, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
  • comment 86.2.216.5 This is nothing personal to you outside of your comments to me. I am asking for some clarification to ensure that there is no collusion going on. CrazyAces489 (talk) 22:02, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
    Of course it's personal, my comments to you are disagreeing with you and sometimes quite bluntly, the fact you cannot imagine that multiple people may disagree with you and may get frustrated about your apparent inability to listen or read policies is I guess to be expected. Thanks for being honest here that this is nothing more than a fishing trip. Presumably this clarification is just like the clarification on your other claims you made at AN/I, that went no where yet still you are making those claims, and now these disgusting claims of racism. I guess when this closes resulting in no action or finding against me, you'll continue to repeat these claims everywhere. --86.2.216.5 (talk) 07:24, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
