 * Suspected sockpuppets

Wikiauthenticity turned up today and immediately voiced in on a Talk:Donald Braswell that only User:Lucia medea supports, and a RfD Redirects for discussion/Log/2010 January 12 that that Lucia medea proposed and seems to be the only supporter for. Supplies similar arguments. Weird things to sockpuppet over. Josh Parris 05:05, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

RfD is one of the more obscure parts of the Wikipedia bureaucracy; I'd like an explanation of how Wikiauthenticity stumbled across the Donald braswell RfD and decided this ought to be their first edit. Josh Parris 11:12, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I attempted to go the the Donald Braswell page by doing a search on "donald braswell" and was presented with the annoying invalid page and wished to see it removed. I did not "stumble" into the discussion and don't see that my reasons for participating in any discussion should be your business.  I was watching the discussion from the beginning and wished to have a voice in the decision.  It seems you are using your "power" to intimidate people who disagree with your stance.Wikiauthenticity (talk) 18:08, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

This is an reasonable explanation. I was not aware that redirects stop working when tagged for RfD. I believe this SPI is groundless and wish to retract it. Josh Parris 13:59, 17 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank you for retracting this Josh. That was good of you.  Can you tell me now how to get my page back to not saying I've been accused of being a sockpuppet?  Thank you.Wikiauthenticity (talk) 16:54, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I think this was an issue with your browser cache; both user pages were cleansed within 10 minutes of my retraction. Josh Parris 22:38, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The comment on my page saying I've been accused of being a sockpuppet has been removed, but both my user page and Lucia media's page say they have been deleted. Can they be restored?Wikiauthenticity (talk) 17:11, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I asked for both user pages to be restored to restored to how they were before I touched them - blank and without history. Feel free to add whatever you wish to your user page. Josh Parris 22:38, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

Wikiauthenticity and I are not the person, and this is a false claim. How could I prove this? Lucia medea (talk) 18:19, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Why are Wikipedia people so difficult to work with? Because I posted my opinions about some issues that were counter to some others, then my right in doing so is attacked? I am not the same person as Lucia medea. I created an account to be able to comment on what I felt were issues where the right solution for the page and/or Wikipedia submitted by the most knowledgeable person on the subject was being ignored. Apparently because those bullies didn't like my backing Lucia medea up in cleaning up a few pages, they then throw sockpuppet accusations around unfairly too. Let's try to work together to achieve a better Wikipedia.Wikiauthenticity (talk) 01:49, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
