IIRC Dominic edited the bio around the same time that Sam says he
informed his colleagues of his intentions to retire. Admins may want to confirm that.
That would mean something if Dominic was still on the arb-l mailing list, but seeing as he was removed before then with all the other functionaries, I don't think it does. And in the same period, Dominic was editing several sex-related articles as part of an AFD series, so again, I don't see an explicit connection.
Also, Dominic was the arb who first proposed
desysopping Dbiv , so I cannot imagine him all of a sudden deciding to help the fellow out under the table.
I asked Dominic about this before any ex-arbitrators were informed, and he was not aware of who Sam Blacketer was in a former wiki career. A strange coincidence, but I do believe it is simply that.
Another mystery is that IP
62.254.64.14Â
(T-C-L-K-R-D)
created the biography and two weeks prior they are having a go at
Jdforrester and
Kelly Martin. I am having trouble believing that is just a coincidence.
