I need to STRONGLY point out that these allegations are being brought against me by a guy who has ACTIVELY VANDALIZED the discussion section of whether or not to delete Korean Pop Music Scandals. After this was pointed out - that Robman94 - was VANDALIZING a discussion page, suddenly I get accused of something. He was deleting votes and arguments. This is a MAJOR infraction.

Honestly, the people leveling these accusations have been doing everything possible to disrupt the Korean Pop Music Scandal page.

I can't believe that wikipedia is allowing this guy to get away with this.

Why might people be logging in with IP addresses? Could it be they are afraid Hullabalo Wolfawitz and Robman94 and their COHORTS (TRUE SOCKPUPPETS) will go after them the way they have gone after me and the page I was contributing to?

Please ban these cyber HARASSERS.

This user is a WP:SPA who only edits in order to add information about scandals to the various wiki pages for Korean pop acts. There is an AfD underway for a page he/she created called Korean pop music scandals. I suspect that this user is using multiple IP accounts to "vote" and comment in the discussion and it's getting out of hand. The user claims to have given up and wants the page deleted, and even blanked the page a few times [1], but they are still posting long diatribes with no reference to policy, in the AfD. This edit appears to confirm that 208.120.138.181 is Standage. This one appears to confirm 50.74.1.34, this one appears to confirm 68.167.21.82. Somewhat less conclusive, this edit implicates 71.249.179.74 and this one implicates 64.134.66.4 Robman94 (talk) 22:16, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

I agree entirely with Robman94; this one is rather clear, and some of the puppeteer's comments, especial those directed at User:PhantomSteve, have been quite abusive. Another likely sock is

Based on what I've read in several music blogs and message boards, I'd say there's a good chance that all the accounts are related to the "accuser" in the Wonder Girls "scandal," who's been popping up in quite a few places trying to get traction for his claims, unsuccessfully.
