 * Evidence
 * Obvious use of single-purpose accounts to vote multiple times at Featured picture candidates/Einstein 1921. SPAs have been identified and this will not affect the outcome. Puppets are linked to Karen Spain by similarities in punctuation, voting the same way on the same page, and the short time between edits.

 * Yeah, it's too obvious. Add Simptimes from Featured picture candidates/Pauline Koch.jpg. My intuition says it will be interesting to find out who's wearing the socks. I'm going to file a checkuser. MER-C 02:32, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Added Simptimes. This post to the Administrator's Noticeboard may also be enlightening. Wronkiew (talk) 18:10, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
