== Ireland struck vote discussion on Talk page == 

 Masem, to be clear: 
 #The section heading in the rules concerning sock puppets states Procedures for dealing with fraud:.  There is no evidence of fraud in this case - why did the other editor invoke an anti-fraud process? 
 # The vote was cast on 3rd August.  The sock account was created on 16th August.  Both accounts were banned within a few days.  Why does this invalidate the vote, especially in light of point one above? 
 I ask other editors to refrain from adding to this section until Masem has a chance to respond.  Feel free to start your own section if you like...
