Upon registration, Poet Liar immediately embarked on a campaign to, well, improve the article on the Integrated Management Associates company, by adding two more links to the company's own self-aggrandizing writings. It's quite clear that Poet Liar isn't really a new user, given that
 * Evidence
 * he shows some familiarity with Wikipedia policy terminology such as "undue weight"; and
 * he claims to know what's "Wikipedia common practice".

If I have to say who I think the puppet master is, I'll guess it's User:RJII, judging from
 * the style of their edit summaries -- "added ...", "deleted ...", etc. (see RJII's edit summaries, and Poet Liar's edit summaries);
 * the arrogant tone and ad-hoc argumentation;
 * RJII's association with the Integrated Management Associates article in the past; and
 * the typo "irrelevent" (see Poet Liar's edit summaries above, and this and this from RJII).

In any case, there should be little doubt that the "new user" Poet Liar is, in fact, not a new user at all. -- Bi 13:41, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Comments

There are a few CheckUsers on RJII at Requests for checkuser/Case/RJII. None involve Poet Liar Who Always Tells the Truth. Poet hasn't contributed since 29 Dec, and looks like a throwaway account. --Akhilleus (talk) 05:29, 1 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Conclusions

Not proven. RJII had wide and far ranging interests, Poet Liar only one. Knowing such terms as "undue weight" is not hard, considering A certain 'Bi' used them not long in the article history before Poet Liar's first edit. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 20:40, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
