Evidence

Three days after I submitted Francis Cyrus Hobart Hutchinson for deletion (AfD) and notified User:Randall O with a message on his talk page, he participated in the discussion at the AfD (here is a diff because he didn't sign his comment), saying Strong Keep. Then, three hours later, User:Better1 posted an additional Strong Keep. This user has made no edits other than to the AfD. Additionally, User:66.19.117.40, who has made no contributions other than to Elizabeth Hutchinson Jackson and Talk:Elizabeth Hutchinson Jackson, the supposed daughter of Hutchinson, edited Elizabeth Hutchinson Jackson, removing a source I had added, an hour before User:Randall O reinserted unsourced statements. This is part of a contentious discussion where he repeatedly adds statements that Elizabeth (Andrew Jackson's mother) is Hutchinson's daughter, which is not genealogically verified. See Talk:Elizabeth Hutchinson Jackson.

Comments

I'm not saying that, in the case of the IP, he didn't simply forget to log in. --Michael White^T·C 21:44, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment My sister became a member last night. Which is her right. What is wrong with that? Michael White states i have not written any articles on this site. Which is a plain lie. Just look at Arthur Stanhope M.P. and to many others to list. This Mr. White has removed many of my links and references i put on articles. All he gives for his support is one genealogist. He also has failed to look at the three pbs.org documentary films, in the last twenty years on Andrew Jackson, which mention his aristocratic ancestors. 66.19.114.161 (talk) 09:44, 29 February 2008 (UTC) Randall O[reply]

Let's see a source cited then! And that's called meatpuppetry, it's frowned on. And I did no such thing as state that you have not written any articles, I was referring just to your "sister's" account. --Michael White^T·C 13:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
