Evidence submitted by Ktr101

Wayne appears to be a single purpose account whose only purpose it to mirror what Drsjpdc says. He edits the same articles as Dr and he also appears in the same deletion discussions. This interaction between the two is highly suspicious.

Mod was suspected after he was found to be editing the same articles as the Dr.

The IPs both edit the articles that Dr has created, but they haven't edited since around the creation of the confirmed sockpuppet Platinumphotographer (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Kevin Rutherford (talk) 01:21, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Evidence submitted by Bongomatic

In his incident report at ANI, Drsjpdc states that "if Wanyethegoblin is [a close personal associate of mine], it's by the way, a surprise to me too." However, at chirowiki.org, a wiki set up by Drsjpdc, a user with the username "Waynethegoblin" is a sysop and bureaucrat (at least as of the time of this posting). Given the evidence (some available only on request from appropriate individuals—I don't want to be accused of WP:OUTING again) that Waynethegoblin:

• is a well-known real-life close personal associate of Drsjpdc
• is a computer science masters degree holder
• was available for projects at the time of chirowiki's creation
• created a user account the day after chirowiki's creation
• was made a sysop and bureaucrat three days after chirowiki's creation

it is inconceivable that Drsjpdc was previously unaware of the real-life identity of Waynethegoblin. His claim (again, from the ANI incident report) that he has "never controlled [Waynethegoblin's] account in any way are both disingenuous and irrelevant to the charge of meatpuppetry. Especially given his repeated denials of previous proven charges of sockpuppetry, any claims Drspjpdc makes that he and Waynethegoblin didn't coordinate their opinions and contributions off-wiki are not to be believed. ^Bongo_matic 02:12, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Comments by accused parties   

See Defending yourself against claims.

As I have said before, I am a very busy full-time chiropractic student at National University of Health Sciences in Illinois. I have been accused of being an associate of drsjpdc, only after a previous accusation violated wiki policy on outing. Whether or not I am in any way associated with drsjpdc is wholly immaterial, as I am my own person capable of making my own decisions and holding my own opinions. If anyone will care to check the IP address with which I access my wiki account, it will be very quickly realized that I am in Illinois as I claim, and that my account has not been in anyway accessed by anyone other than myself.
