 * stopped editing before appeared. He probably realized that his autobiography wouldn't be accepted if he uses his real name for the username (It wouldn't be accepted anyway, of course). I don't see this as sockpuppetry as long as the  account is dormant.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  17:10, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. It was clear to me that was trying to avoid scrutiny by creating a second account. I just felt it was important that there be some recognition that the two accounts are linked and that if  recreates the article it is in fact an autobiography.
