Evidence

Adamc714 (talk · contribs) has been around for some time, though inactive for several months; STLisbetterthanChicago (talk · contribs) is new. Common ownership of accounts admitted here. They are editing together - the hoax article Joseph Shelton (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) was entered at WP:AFC by 150.243.210.125 (talk · contribs), created a couple of hours later by Adamc714, and STLisbetterthanChicago then began to edit it, and removed an AfD notice. Puppeteer may have felt that Adamc714 would have been a giveaway user name for his other hoax article Adam Crews (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views).

This is a "sockpuppet" account. I didn't know that was illegal. Delete this one if you want.STLisbetterthanChicago (talk) 15:46, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
