Users commenting at the deletion review for
Telepathy and war
- Evidence submitted by Frei Hans
The users Verbal and Papa November campaigned for the deletion of an article for no reason other than they did not seem to like it. They deleted up to 17 references and citation from reputable sources, and then claimed in an articles for deletion "debate" that the article was unreferenced. The article was then deleted by an administrator, AMiB, who was found afterwards in an arbitration case to be a sock puppeteer and disruptive editor.
The users Verbal and Papa November often appeared together, at the same time, to remove content. One of the users (Papa November) seemed to have more administrative capabilities than the other, and carried out the actions of the user who seemed to have fewer administrative tools (Verbal) and whose user page showed he had been warned for edit warring on other pages.
On one occasion, at the time the two users had been visiting the article Telepathy and war to remove content, an anonymous IP (160.103.2.223) showed a revert of content. The revert was made only moments after Verbal, who seemed aware of 3RR (reverting content excessively), had already "used up" one his reversions. The user Verbal seemed very aware of 3RR and his user page showed a history of having been warned for making disruptive reverts before.
The users seem to be very familiar with forums and processes for carrying out disruptive discussions in the guise of forum "administrative processes" and "filing procedures". They seem more interested in removing certain types of content then in creating it. They display editorial bias, and are aggressive in their actions. They quote a lot of Wikipedia jargon and seem technically skilled with online tools but seem unwilling to work collaboratively to write encyclopedic content.
They seem to have all the traits of people who "game" the system, and their patterns imply multiple user accounts to bully other editors into accepting their deletions of content.
They seem to provoke and aggravate other editors by removing content and then citing Wikipedia "regulations" (although unable to operate themselves collaboratively within the spirit of Wikipedia and with good faith). They posted provocative messages on my user page. They campaign to delete [1] articles and edit histories of articles they have "edit warred" on, neatly removing "edit war" histories that cannot by cited in evidence so long as they remain deleted.
The user Papa November has used his administrative tools inappropriately at other times as well. He moved to delete another article, showing bias in his choice of article. As a nominator he could not delete the article himself. There was no consensus for deletion so he made moves to redirect it instead. The article was redirected through another user account and Papa November returned to "patrol" the article and keep its page empty. Other users saw no problem with the original content and wanted to keep the article. When article content was restored, Papa November took up edit warring again and redirected the article again. He then used his administrative ability to stop other users from editing the article. The content he moved to delete was neutral, matter of fact and informative.

Sockpuppets are accounts created by one person. If true, how could they appear at the same time? Abce2| Free Lemonade Only 25 cents!(Sign here) 16:29, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- They edited articles at about the same time. They appeared on similar articles, with a brief time lag between edits and comments - enough for a user to have switched accounts (which the reversion by the anonymous IP suggested). Frei Hans ( talk) 16:52, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
Do you have any harder evidence? All you've given so far is interpretation and unrelated information. A quick look over the user's contributions indicates nothing in the way of sockpuppetry, and you haven't even listed reasons why three of the users are listed. If you can't provide evidence, this is just disruptive, and should be quickly closed. lifebaka ++ 17:54, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Clerk declined. As I explained on

- A lot of the evidence is contained in the history of the article that was deleted. This cannot be linked to, as it has been deleted. A description of what happened, with links to relevant discussion, is the best I can do in this case. Also, I had not finished tidying up my request before it was declined.

Clerk declined for lack of evidence. The commentary above (which lacks substantial evidence) provides a description that could match practically any long term editor or administrator, and as a result doesn't significantly connect any of the specific accounts listed. If you'd like to narrow down the scope (say, by removing one or two of the administrators listed) and provide evidence in the form of
diffs, its possible this case could be reconsidered for CU. Note that declining the CU doesn't close the case, it remains open for the submission of additional evidence until its final review by an administrator.
