Evidence

• Users have all replaced the word "foundress" with a neologism "encephemede". According to the article encephemede there are references for the word being used as early as 1992 but there are no results on Google for it. It was used in two edits by 216.211.59.56 [1][2], then by Graham's Packed Lunch on the same day.[3].

The following day, 216.26.219.150 reverted to an edit by Graham's Packed Lunch[4] followed by Graham's Packed Lunch reverting again.[5]

After this there was a discussion on User talk:Graham's Packed Lunch in which the user was warned for vandalism.

Another user made similar changes here: [6][7][8][9], and Robert Jacobsen (another new user) created an article[10] which appears to contain valid references although I have not been able to verify them. The user also reverted to one of the edits by Darien Muncastershire.[11]

A few of these edits have also broken the interwiki links: [12][13][14], this also suggests they are the same user. --Snigbrook ^(talk) 14:22, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Another user, Janet Jackson and Steve, has edited the Encephemede article, to remove the AFD notice.[15][[16] after Robert Jacobsen and Darien Muncastershire were warned for it. --Snigbrook ^(talk) 15:03, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

An IP search seems to indicate that Snigbrook is in fact the master account of all the above accused sockpuppet accounts, with the exception of Janet Jackson and Steve. Janet Jackson and Steve (talk) 15:06, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
