==The real statement of facts==I am an internet and published author. I admit an interest in Javier Solana. I have researched him since November 22, 1995, the night I inadvertently discovered him while checking my email and reading AOL log on headlines after an attack of insomnia making the balance of the night worthless for desired sleep. I have been strictly factual in my reporting on Solana. There were people who did jump to the article and interjected biblical quotes. If you will check the history, you will see that it was me who went in and tried to restore the article to mainstream credibility and encyclopedic use. SqueakBox's approach has been to delete facts that some might find as prophetic fulfillment -- e.g., the initial Reuters report I read on Javier Solana, the night of November 22, 1995 pointed out both as to the signing of a Treaty of Association with Israel and the forthcoming Barcelona Conference to be held in that Spanish city on November 27-28, 2005, that Solana held powers of attorney from THE EUROPEAN UNION and "THE TEN NATION WESTERN EUROPEAN UNION, A MILITARY FEDERATION". SqueakBox who through his Rastafarian filters believes this may be a "ten horn" tip off as contained in Daniel and Revelation prophecies in all the Jewish and Christian Bibles of the world (as to Daniel ones) and all the Christian Bibles as to Revelation/Apocalypse ones, chose to initially delete both the Barcelona Conference and the Western European Union references.

He then chose to attribute all his flak from many varied internet sources to me. Incredibly he posted a long list of IP addresses (I think I have a total of 3 only: My home, my office, and my Sprint wireless card), attributing to me criticism coming to him from such places as Allen Park, Michigan (I think I may have been to this remote Detroit suburb maybe three times since moving here many years ago); Toronto, Ontario; Reston, Virginia, and so on and so forth.

Even more outrageously, he made links to legitimate research as "trivia." He did not like it one little bit when I turned the tables on him, labelling the same about his openly professed belief on his own web page that Haile Selassie is God Almighty himself! That is far more incredible than any thesis that Javier Solana could be a potential educated guess for the anti-Christ.

SqueakBox is, like all cowards, hiding under a pseudonym. He has chosen to stalk me all over the internet, including my own blog site. He would like nothing better than to force me to give up all my billable time as a lawyer to fight in this Mad Hatter situation here on Wikipedia (and by the way, now I am wondering if indeed the astrological symbols on the puzzle symbol portend what some have suggested to me -- Wicca!?). There is one thing that SqueakBox published that is utter defamatory and it is a promise, not a threat that I will take legal action UNLESS IT IS IMMEDIATELY REMOVED. That is the reference from an IP address I have never heard of -- certainly not one of mine a "66" something making a statement on SqueakBox's site that his proudest accomplishment was 'impregnating his dog.'" That is nothing I would ever write nor condone. I suspect that SqueakBox used one is his many sockpuppets to put it there for him. It was not for me and I DEMAND its IMMEDIATE REMOVAL AND RETRACTION!

Statement of the dispute

The dispute arises due to the fact that Cumbey is an Internet (and published) author with an established interest in Javier Solana and proving him to be "The Antichrist". Cumbey had edited the Solana article to the point where it has lost its encyclopedic value - when non-essential information and vandalism were removed by other editors, the information was added again in a short amount of time by Cumbey and a slew of non-recognized IP addresses. After a month of vandalism and bad edits questioned by the Solana article's editors, Cumbey turned to an off-site blog to continue her quest.

Description

Cumbey is engaging in personal attacks on and off of the Wikipedia site, has been known to blank user and talk pages where discussion is taking place on fixing articles, within the Javier Solana article and related threads.

Several IP addresses are rumored to be attached to or involved in this dispute:

1. Special:contributions/68.31.252.69 - A single user which added content to Solana's Talk channel. Located in Reston, Virginia where Cumbey occasionally goes. She has signed from IP's located in this town.
2. Special:contributions/69.209.175.201 - Three edits on the Solana article, mostly background bio on mother. Is from Allen Park, Michigan, within the area where Cumbey lives and works.
3. Special:contributions/66.0.239.178 - Addition of some red text about '666' and biographical information on Solana's family. Comes from Alabama, and is not Cumbey.
4. Special:contributions/68.31.251.196 - Cleaned up some punctuation in Cumbey's comments. Is from Reston, Virginia.
5. Special:contributions/69.209.166.174 - Signed a comment as 'CEC'. Is from Allen Park, Michigan.
6. Special:contributions/68.61.150.80 - This IP address has prior been attributed to Cumbey. Is from nearby Rochester, Michigan.
7. Special:contributions/66.0.239.178 - Addition of 666 text and bio information on Solana. Is from Alabama and therefore not Cumbey.
8. Special:contributions/68.159.142.14 - Comment or talk comment signed as CEC. Is from Michigan state.
9. Special:contributions/65.148.140.210 - Single user comment, possibly Cumbey.Is from Victorville, California, and therefore is unlikely to be Cumbey.
10. Special:contributions/69.209.129.193 - Cumbey Statements to Solana Talk page. Is from Allen Park.

Evidence of trying and failing to resolve the dispute

(provide diffs and links)

1. One Salient Oversight has attempted to resolve the dispute by a post to Cumbey's blog here. After his/her comment to Cumbey's original comment regarding Wikipedia, OSO and SqueakBox were both mentioned in Cumbey's next blog comment.
2. In addition, One Salient Oversight attempted to solve the dispute here by attempting to reason with Cumbey.
3. SqueakBox requests mediation, a request that Cumbey has not replied to as of yet.
4. One Salient Oversight creates Javier Solana Antichrist allegations after discussing the issue with others at Talk:Javier Solana. This was done because he was convinced that an article about the issue was needed on Wikipedia. The fact that this article could result in a de-escalation of the edit war was incidental.

Outside view

This is a summary written by users not directly involved with the dispute but who would like to add an outside view of the dispute.

This seems to be overly antisocial behavior that is pretty bad. Though I agree that this kind of incivility must be frustrating, I would encourage everyone to stay a bit more calm about disputes like these. If methods and behavior are so obviously non-sensical, try to go easy on the editing, also try to be as civil as possible.

The alleged sock puppets seem to be agreeing with another quite well, though I don't have enough experience to know how solid the evidence is expected to be. Edits like this one certainly don't favor Constance's view of the matter. I Googled for other things written by her and found this at Antichrist watch. The mentioning of "ASSEMBLY RECOMMENDATION 666" followed by bible quotation in an article on Solana is especially interesting.
