Lwachowski appeared as a single purpose account and immediately started editing the BKWSU and related articles disruptively and trolling users talk pages. Similarities with Green108 are shown below.
 * Evidence


 * 1) A previous sock of Green108, Shortskirtlonglegs questioned the "G.V. Mody Rural Health Care Centre & Eye Hospital," statement in the article, including concerning how it was funded. Lwachowski raises the question in almost exactly the same way.
 * 2) Lwachowski also supports Green108 by defending a fair-use challenge by claiming that 1702 × 2379 pixels is not high resolution using a BS argument. A similar approach was taken by Green108. This POV has also been supported by Faithinhumanity. It is strange how all three users seemed to know that the scanner used was set to 72 dpi. Lwachowski also puts forward the same argument as Green108 that the pictures are challenged because of some kind of BKWSU cover-up of embarrassing information. Also, Lwachowski re-introduces the images after IPSOS removes them requesting a fair-use review. It would seem Lwachowski is representing Green108's interests quite strongly here.
 * 3) Lwachowski and Green108 both introduce similar types of bias into the article. From Lwachowski   (esp compare this). From Green108 (with this, see end of diff).
 * 4) Green108, Faithinhumanty and Lwachowski all keep re-inserting sections of the article that were removed with consensus of the collaborating editors.
 * 5) Lwachowski and Green108 express identical POV, using almost exactly the same words, on the article talk page, such as "i am emphasising is that channelling and mediumship ARE utterly central to the Bkwsu", compared to, "Mediumship and channelling (both) are utter central and defining of this religion".
 * 6) Sometimes Green108 edits logged out, on this occasion as . It is possible that this edit was made by Lwachowski whilst logged out as  immediately after this edit. According to Maxmind, both IPs are in London but Green108's is using Claranet ISP and the possible IP of Lwachowski is using Telewest Broadband. Green108 has not posted since Lwachowski became active. If both the same user then this may be due to an ISP switch although this will be difficult to confirm unless Green108 posts again.
 * 7) Green108 and Lwachowski both make a point of highlighting the affiliation other editors have with the BKWSU and use this to discredit them or imply a conspiracy. From Lwachowski, "As Bksimonb correctly discloses of himself, Riveros11 is also a BK follower. Their intention appears to be block the development any of these topic beyond the limitations of the current BKWSU own publicity material.", and from Green108, "the contributor wants them removed is that they are a member of the Core Internet PR Team for the organisation involved, the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University. A millenarianist new religious movement." and also "those making up the consensus are both BK members and part of the Bkwsu Internet PR team, so i dont think it really counts" (posted logged out to evade a one week block for previous sockpuppetry and disruptive editing).
