User:Salvidrim! (paid)
In the last quarter of 2017, to help wikinewbie PR hotshot JacobPace, I accepted to engage in minor non-content paid editing using account User:Salvidrim! (paid). I used my admin tools to grant this alt the page mover userright, and then used that to perform a paid round-robin move. I used my experience to coach Jacob on the ins-and-outs of Wikipedia and how to best be successful at paid editing by avoiding attracting the attention of the community and of anti-paid-editing advocates. I also colluded with a friend to get an obtain a quick AfC pass without proper community review for two articles I had been paid to cleanup, and flaunted that "review" as a voucher of neutrality during subsequent AfDs. As a result, I was desysopped per Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct of Mister Wiki editors, and as thus also lost my roles as an SPI Clerk and at UTRS & OTRS.
