 * Evidence

Broadway14122 was created on December 12, 2007 | Creation log. Just a little while later, Alexfusco5 warmly welcomed him (one of the the first times Alexfusco5 has welcomed anybody). One day later, wala! Alexfusco5 was nominated for Adminship. I personally think that this was a little soon for Broadway14122 to know how to nominate anybody for Adminship, much less know what an administrator is. On top of this, he posts a notice on Alexfusco5’s page, which anybody who had been created in the last day would surely not know how to do. (| The notice was put on 2 days after Broadway14122’s creation.) Since the nomination was put down a little while after it was created, Broadway14122 has not contributed since, nor do I think he will in the future. With all of the above evidence, I think that Broadway14122 is a Sockpuppet of Alexfusco5, just so Alexfusco5 could be nominated for adminship.

Strange. There is no way Broadway14122 is a brand new wikian, see. Question, who is the master. Alex turned down the nom. I asked Alex to respond here. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 17:32, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

 * (edit conflict)I have some counter-evidence to submit. Most importantly if broadway14122 was my sockpuppet why would I decline the nomination? As for welcoming broadway14122 I have welcomed many users (both anons and registered users). So what Redmarkviolinist is saying is that because I welcomed broadway14122 he is my sockpuppet and if I go to the user creation log and welcome three or four new users they are all my sockpuppets.

While this is an unusual case, it is not convincing that they are the same person. If they were, it'd make no sense for Alex to turn down the nom. More evidence is needed. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 17:47, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
