Strikingly similar history of editing "secret society" related articles in the general area of North Carolina. Also Collegiate secret societies in North America‎, Alpha Gamma Kappa‎, and the totally unrelated (I think) Podiatry. Also a similar history of uploading possible copyvio images claiming PD (self). See Image:Gorgons head lodge.jpg and Image:DiPhi_house.jpg. The Jonboy322 user also created an article Cruse (name)‎ which seems a little too coincidental, given the assumption that the other user is likely called J.L. Cruse....

 * Could you please provide us with some diff's to show how there editing is in fact similar. Tiptoety  talk 18:24, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll try, but looking at the contributions list is probably more telling. It's a rather unusual combination of articles.  The two images I listed above have identical non-standard descriptions as a start. LostOldPassword (talk) 20:26, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * How about this: Jlcruse uploads a photo Image:Gorgons head lodge.jpg at  02:35, May 29, 2008  and then Jonboy322 creates a page titled "Order of Gorgon's Head" afterwards, at 03:04, May 29, 2008 . LostOldPassword (talk) 20:40, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment Garrard, Williamson , Morgan , and Thomas were all claimed to be members of the "Society of the Seven" a supposed East Carolina University secret society whose page has been recreated and deleted  many times (see also here for Jlcruse's reference to it ). I'm guessing a look at those deleted pages would probably be conclusive. LostOldPassword (talk) 02:42, 30 May 2008 (UTC)


 * This edit by Jlcruse may be conclusive given the diffs immediately above as it matches the style of those by Jonboy322 and the IP addresses and adds unverified information about the "Society of the Seven".LostOldPassword (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 02:54, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
