Sockpuppets?
It is likely that Arnneisp (talk · contribs) and STLMatt (talk · contribs) are the same person or they at least work for the same company, since they are both actively marketing (spamming) the same product and the same company here at Wikipedia. The user name "Arnneisp" also seems similar to the name of the CEO as claimed in the company article. --David Göthberg 18:54, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
- And spamming not just Wikipedia, apparently: [1]. — Matt Crypto 01:49, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
The Facts
- This week I've entered my account Arnneisp after few months of not using it. I don't often enter Wikipedia, but I wanted to update some of the old entries I've made.
- I was surprised to find that my account was blocked.
- It has to be understood that the following happened with my knowing at all. I was not involved and was not notified.
1. The administrator put a notice for quick deletion on an old entry of mine (I believe since 2005).
2. Someone, whom I don't know replied and suggested that the material is interesting and should not be deleted.
3. The administrator accused him of being me, and went on to block the poor chap's account and block my account as well.
When I found that, I was not very pleased (to say the least) and have written directly to the admin responsible including the above explanation.
I've countered his accusations and requested that both my entries be recovered for their value and facts, and my account reinstated.
I have opened another account Arnneisp1 in order to communicate with Wikipedia. I've not hidden my actions. I wanted to be able to fend for my entries as I did not have a chance to do that before.
His reponse - The new account is closed as well. I guess some people don't like to be wrong.
The whole matter seems to have started from wrong assumptions of Arnneisp being linked to some other account. The rest plus some Wikipedia starter mistakes of mine led to the current situation. Those mistakes were corrected when explained to me.
I can say this - I have not and will not under any circumstances knowingly spam or make entries that oppose Wikipedia policy. But, I think I ought to have had a chance to be heard and so far I did not. Arnneisp (talk) 23:42, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
