• Code letter: D

• Supporting evidence:

The Flight account has very few edits at time of posting (four to be exact). One in April 2007, two in April 2008, and now one on 11 December 2008. Three of these four exhibit similar behavior to edits by Trasel. Both accounts were created around the same time (11 April 2006 and 11 July 2006). In April 2008, Trasel became involved in a heated AfD for James Wesley Rawles. That account and Flight both commented with keeps, both citing a recent quote in the NYTimes. Flight's edit was seemingly out of the blue - his first in over a year. The next day Flight made an edit to Retreat (survivalism), an article Trasel created.

Now today Flight reappears for the first time since April to comment on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael Z. Williamson, where Trasel had been previously making attacks against myself for nominating the article. In his comment Flight uses the same "grow up" line that Trasel used hours earlier on his talk page here and here. Thanks for the time, Grsz¹¹ 06:21, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Declined Vote did not materially affect outcome of AfD, which would be required to check under a D request. -- Avi (talk) 05:08, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
