WikiButterfly has/had a registered alternate account called () Acetotyce and/or PBASH607. The required alt account banner was removed earlier this month with the note "rmv redirect as I dont hold this account anymore." (); account shortly thereafter became active again voicing support for Acetotyce in an AfD discussion () and to accuse editor nom'ing his article for deletion of "personal attacks." In fact, WikiButterfly's only (and first) off-user space edits in the month since it was "given up" by Acetotyce and assumed by someone else, was to jump into this AfD. It's possible this is not a sock, but a meatpuppet. (I normally wouldn't be too plussed about this, but since I'm the one being subject to this coordinated one-two attack, it's a little off-putting.) Note that this user has previously engaged in on- and off-WP canvassing when he's been subject of noticeboard action (please request diffs, I'm not posting them here so as to avoid dragging in other editors until requested) so there may be a rapid influx of other, tightly coordinated accounts denouncing the alerting editor (me), within the next few minutes/hours.

- Please note, Acetotyce - as I predicted above - has casually mentioned this SPI (see: ) in an unrelated ANI which he previously canvassed his tightly coordinated supporters to; expect to see a flood of aggressive posters with colorful block histories making accusations against me, momentarily, in an effort to obfuscate and derail this investigation with counter-charges.

- I actually am new to WP, have only had this account for a very short time. I am learning my way around wiki and reading articles and watching posts to learn. I do not at this time have access to my computer so I have not edited yet, but as I said u do read through and keep up. I only voiced my opinion earlier because there were a lot of accusatory things being said. I can say based on everything that's been discussed on the talk pages of the articles being edited it was already consensus this article would have been written by one person or another. I have no other alternate accounts. --WikiButterfly (talk) 19:50, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
- Just out of curiosity, of all the millions of pages on WP, how did you happen to stumble upon an AfD discussion that the former owner of your account was participating in, as your very first off-Userspace edit? Was it just a coincidence? DocumentError (talk) 19:54, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

I made it clear on my userpage, WikiButterfly is not one of my accounts anymore. I don't hold access to it thus any contributions I do are not related to WikiButterfly. It was an alternate a year ago, but not anymore, I suggest DocumentError read WP:SPI carefully without making such accusations on me. --Acetotyce (talk) 20:13, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
- So, of all the millions of pages on WP, the new WikiButterfly's very first edit - out of pure coincidence - just happened to be to join an AfD discussion in which you were a participant? That's fine if that's the case, I just want to be sure I understand. I would feel terrible if I erroneously accused someone of sockpuppetry or meatpuppetry.
