 * Evidence
 * Both Bofors  and MichiganMilitia edit the September 11 attacks talk page  - Talk:September 11 attacks, regarding 9/11 truth.
 * Bofors uploaded Image:WPO_911_Sep08_graph.jpg at 00:09, 13 September 2008 which MichiganMilitia placed on his talk page after a number of attempts to format the image link correctly.
 * At 08:16, 13 September 2008, Bofors uploaded Image:Michiganmilita.jpg. At , Bofors uploaded Image:CIACrest.gif.  At 08:24, 13 September 2008, MichiganMilitia placed both images on his user page.
 * Bofors uploaded Image:Heise.jpg at 16:30, 13 September 2008, and MichiganMilitia added it to his page at 16:34, 13 September 2008.

Both accounts edit the same time of day, though separated by a few minutes apart (time to log off and on again). I think users need to be autoconfirmed before uploading images on English Wikipedia, which takes a few days. User:MichiganMilitia account was created two days ago on September 11, thus not old enough to upload images. --Aude (talk) 21:34, 13 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Addendum

Bofors on 911blogger.com:

So, we are now getting meatpuppets too. --Aude (talk) 22:47, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
