Has created article List of PBS KIDS Channel Identifications which I have put up for AfD. This is a recreation of content which has been deleted oh-too-many times from PBS Kids and which is one of Jamesinc14's favorite targets and MO's. Particularly compare the diff-text of to the List of PBS KIDS Channel Identifications article--in many places the phrasing is EXACTLY the same. Consider just a tidbit:
 * Evidence

From PBS Kids (diff:, from 16 April--this is authored by User:4.226.63.88 a "suspected" James sock)

The 1st set has a green background. The 1st ident of this set has a boy named "Dash",[2] which begins with a closeup of his blinking eye. The shot is zoomed out to see Dash say "Doink!", and he thinks about "PBS" in a thought bubble. In the background, dark pink stripes are shaking slightly. The 2nd ident of this set is of a girl named "Dot",[1] who runs from the distance towards the screen and into it. "Doink" is also heard, and the thought bubble with "PBS" appears as well. Stripes are moving left to right in the background. They are different colors and sizes.

The 2nd set has a background that changes colors. Within these 2 idents, a smaller version of the opposite ident is in the upper right hand corner. The 1st ident of the set is Dash, the boy, who is at first a caveman, then a scuba diver, and then a robot. He grabs the letters "PBS", and the circular PBS Kids logo is shown. There is no "doink" or similar sound in this ident. Blue bubbles are shaking in this background. The 2nd one is Dot, the girl, who is at first a cat, than an octopus, and finally an astronaut. Something that suspiciously sounds like "doy!" is heard instead of "doink!", and the circular PBS Kids logo is shown. There are stars in this background.

In these two examples, even the original FORMATTING was exactly the same (before I blockquoted it). Anyone attempting to cast this as a coincidence will thus be personally responsible for the violent detonation of my entire skull.

Seriously, though: Enough is enough of this guy. There will be more of him, I'm sure, but let's banninate this incarnation before someone buys into his "I'm new here" schtick--as in User talk:Webkinz Mania.

I thank you for your time and effort in looking at this case. Gladys J Cortez 01:23, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

 * I have no particular reason to doubt the allegation here, other than the fact that Webkinz Mania's edits are all from the last week, and Jamesinc14's edits are from November 2006. I assume Jamesinc14 has deleted edits that are relevant.  Not being an administrator, I can't see deleted edits.  Administrator review is needed. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 01:37, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
