lovely.

he literally shows his ass on WP

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:David_Shankbone

Does WP really want the kiddies to see this sort of thing? And when did WP turn into "mygayspace".

Not that there's anything wrong with that in the right setting, but not on WP, its not supposed to be a socialnetworking site for any sort of orienatations ;-)

How is this "contributing to an encyclopedia"? And why has Ryulong (well, RU, David might be quite long, perhaps if you check this he might show you) not put the hammer of the wikideletionsavingkb's gods upon this:

Next item for consideration:

Have these "2" users ever voted on the same issue, or tag-team edited the same article?

I'm not sure about that- the edits don't seem to coincide particularly. But as DL said he doesn't seem to have edited anything on Law or Finance so he may have separate accounts for the purpose.

There are NO Shankbones in Whitepages .

I'm sorry, but I suggested that someone else go look. I haven't looked. But if I did, that's what I'd look for. And do it fast, so as to avoid the usual WR-related WP-alteration

Shankbone is zeroa (shankbone), one of the components of the seder plate.

There's plenty about David Shankbone in Google, including New York city social networking things. Besides, if he's going to Israel and has his name in the media, it's probably his name.

No one lists in the white pages anymore. Esp. if you are a semi-public figure or female.

Lots of people don't even have fixed lines anymore - just a cell, which wouldn't show up in the white pages either.

I am telling you the surname Shankbone does not exist. No one has it except this person indicating it is not his birth name.

In ANY country? If so, then he posts to social networking groups under a fake name. It sounds like a real name to me.
