This is a request for arbitration against User:Iasson. I don't intend to submit it myself, as I was not involved early on, particularly when Iasson was casting his "peculiar votes". Feel free to edit it or submit it.


User:Iasson and all sockpuppets (including User:Faethon and sockpuppets, and User:Acestorides and sockpuppets)

User:Iasson has repeatedly attempted to change Misplaced Pages policy, and deletion policy in particular, to his own liking, without subjecting it to consensus. Furthermore, he acts on these policies unilaterally, casting "peculiar votes" in VfD. He has been asked to stop many times, but refuses. He has said that he will not stop until banned. An RFC was filed on January 15th. Iasson "left" in late January, but has made occasional edits since then, mostly to his RFC and user page. He was active on meta for a while, until he received a 15-day ban for similar activities.

User:Faethon appeared around the same time Iasson left. Faethon has a similar editing style to Iasson, though Iasson has denied being Faethon. Faethon attempted to create a "public account" by posting his password on his user page. Predictably, the password was soon changed. Undaunted Faethon created User:Faethon2. This too was "robbed". Faethon continued down the number line (Faethon3, Faethon4, etc.), until about 45 accounts had been registered. Most of these were not registered by Faethon, but by other users attempting to stop him.

On February 25th, a public account was created at User:Acestorides, using nearly the same wording as User:Faethon. Rather than using numbers, this account progresses by using the List of ancient Greeks. It appears to have advanced through Acusilaus, or about 8 accounts.

All of these accounts have made virtually no significant edits to the main namespace.
