Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/-Ril- 2
Phroziac and Doc glasgow are stating that Melissadolbeer is not a sockpuppet of -Ril-. Are they basing this statement on the fact that she makes wild accusations against -Ril-, which is an inference, or on actual knowledge that they are unrelated? I see this use of sockpuppets as a form of "theater" characteristic of ventriloquism, in which the ventriloquist uses a puppet (known as a dummy) to insult the ventriloquist (who is of course actually a puppetmaster) and make personal attacks on him. If it merely seems implausible that Melissadolbeer is a -Ril- sockpuppet, then I would suggest that the ArbCom is the judge of fact and can decide how they interpret the evidence. I request that the finding of fact that Melissadolbeer is a sockpuppet not be withdrawn. I would prefer that the ArbCom decide it. Robert McClenon 15:30, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
