Suspected sockpuppets


Please list evidence below this line. Remember to sign at the end of your section with 4 tilde characters "~~~~"

Account created the same day as Historicist was blocked, this account is agenda-driven with the same interest in the Holocaust, deniers and antisemitism. User portrayed immediately experienced edits and policy understanding and yet denies any previous accounts or blocks. I brought this up at the last blocking admins MastCells talkpage here. They also added another possible account sockmastermaster as User:NoCal100. Checkuser required to check for additional sleepers. Off2riorob (talk) 12:34, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Evidence submitted by User:Carolmooredc

  • Spaceclerk repeatedly refused to acknowledge that I had admitted I misunderstood the purpose of the article in my first couple postings, making it necessary for me to add a disclaimer to them. He kept accusing me of wanting to change the purpose of the article, even created an obnoxious accusatory section misquoting me here.
  • Then Spaceclerk clearly violated policy in reverting this properly referenced edit, claiming I (and evidently the WP:RS who had written similar things) were “obfuscating” the issue. When I brought the issue to talk, with even more WP:RS, he was dismissive and uncooperative.
  • At his talk page I discovered the question about his account which made me suspect he was indeed one of the banned editors/sockpuppets on these issues because that type of behavior over several articles inevitably would lead to banning. At this diff Spaceclerk deleted from his talk page 2 editors’ questions about his account, and his uncivil replies, replacing them with negative comments against us.

Response by User:Spaceclerk

I am quite sure the CheckUser process will demonstrate that the charge by Off2riorob and Carolmooredc is false. (In fact, if I'm reading the text below accurately, it already has, and I thank you.) I am not User:Historicist nor any other banned or blocked user. As I have posted on my talk page, if these two users — one of them running for ARBCOM! — continue to make false accusations about me in this fashion, this will become a matter for WP:AN/I under WP:HARASS. It is ironic in the extreme to be called 'uncivil' by someone in the very process of falsely accusing me of being a sock of a banned or blocked user. I would appreciate it if these two users would quit wasting my time. Spaceclerk (talk) 17:42, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
