Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Tbsdy lives/Archive

Evidence submitted by Simpleterms
It would appear that Tbsdy lives and Gillyweed are more likely to be involved in meat puppetry rather than sockpuppetry. Both editors have been engaged in reverting any work I have done on this article back to the Tbsdy lives preferred version without making any additional changes. Tbsdy lives commented on his talk page that he was taking a break from wiki due to the impending birth of his second child. While Tbsdy lives was unavailable to make any reverts of changes to the David Tweed article Gillyweed stepped in and made reverts back to the original article without adding any content. This was done despite Gillyweed not making any changes to this article since September 2009. Both these editors then reverted changes to my edits until a block was put on the editing of the David Tweed article after Tbsdy lives complained about my edits. I submit the following as my evidence in this allegation.

On January 14 2010 Tbsdy lives reverts the David Tweed article to his preferred version. 

At 11:37pm on 18 January Tbsdy lives publicly announced "Due to the impending birth of my next child, I may be unavailable for periods of time." 

On January 20 2010 at 7:42pm I changed the David Tweed article back to my version.

At 10:36pm that same day (January 20 2010) Gillyweed changed the article, without making any changes, back to the version preferred by Tbsdy lives. . This is an odd change as he had not edited the article since September 2009.

At 9:40pm on 21 January 2010, I once again changed the article back. 

At 11:17pm on the same day,21 January 2010, Gillyweed once again reverted the article back to the previous version without making any changes.

At 9:47pm on January 26 2010, I changed the article back to my preferred version. 

Four hours later, at 1:35am on 27 January 2010, the article was again reverted back to version preferred by Tbsdy by Gillyweed, once again, without any changes being made.

At 3:42am on 27 January 2010, I reverted the article back. 

At 6:30am that same morning (27 January 2010) Tbsdy lives reappeared and reverted the page back again to his preferred version. and promptly made a complaint against me for making 3 reverts within a 24 hour period. The David Tweed article was then blocked from editing.

It is understandable that I feel as though I have been targeted by both of these editors to prevent my version of this article becoming public for any length of time. Tbsdy lives has previously charged me with sockpuppetry in an attempt to have me blocked. This allegation was unfounded and subsequently dismissed. I believe that Tsbdy lives is frustrated with the fact that I have not explained the changes I have made to article to him. I will be addressing every change I want made to the David Tweed article with a written explanation for each change in the near future.

Is there any reason for me to not believe that this isn't a retaliatory sock puppetry allegation? –MuZemike 21:05, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

I think the evidence I provide speaks for itself Simpleterms (talk) 21:15, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
 * It doesn't. There isn't any evidence here to link these two; this just seems to be based on your current dispute. Without any evidence to the contrary, this should be closed. Peter Symonds ( talk ) 21:26, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

I am surprised by your comment. The chain of evidence linking collaboration between the accused is as blatant as a tag team wrestling match. Using other editors to make changes to support your POV is tantamount to Meat Puppetry and I do believe this is the activity undertaken by Tbsdy lives and Gillyweed.Simpleterms (talk) 02:33, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
