Today, I noticed a new article, Final Beginnings, created by our friend Timgoodings while patrolling pages to see if they qualify for speedy deletion. It's apparently "a film about 3 adults living adulthood". However, no evidence of the writer/director, nor the producer, nor the actors, not the company, nor the flim itself exist. I nominated it, but it was declined since I was "assuming bad faith". Then, someone else re-nominated it, containing MORE evidence. 19 minutes before the page was created, another newly created account, User:Georgehorse12, also inserted un-sourced references to the film in the Njivica article.Those events were taken 19 minutes away from each-other. Timgoodings joined a while ago, and made his first edit 20 minutes after Georgehorse12. This can't be a coincidence, so I'd like to verify my instincts. Alex2564 (talk) 23:11, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

This case was originally under Georgehorses12, but it was moved to Timgoodings. Within closer inspection, I've discovered that Timgoodings joined August 27, 2008, not April 29 2012. Weird how his first edits would be those to a fake movie. I think we might have a compromised account on our hands... Alex2564 (talk) 17:05, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
