Your claim of possible sockpuppetry in FPC contributions   I justed wanted to clear something up Yes I know that in the Leopard Tortoise candidate voting I said Oppose with the reasoning It looks like an average snapshot to me and that the user Tenio also opposed with pretty much the exact same reason I want to let you know that Tenio is not a sockpuppet of mine and here is some information on why I said oppose    sent me a message after seeing my vote asking me what I meant by average shot I wrote back with this  This is what i mean by an average shot I am a photographer and I dont really find anything in the photo that would make it anything special from many others The use of flash rid the turtle of any contrast and washed out the colors while created dark shadows under the shell The composition is pretty average all I can say about it is that you centered the turtle It looks like you just relied on the auto settings on the camera and got lucky All in all its a photo anyone could have taken  Its also on his talk page I dont have any personal grudge against Muhammed Mahdi Karim and Teninos vote and reason is only coincidence  Also on another note I took bit of offense at your comment in the FPC when you said It doesnt mean their votes dont count just that they need to be treated with caution until they prove themselves  because you are implying that my vote for some reason should carry less weight than an established users vote Im sorry if I havent been editing wikipedia for too long but I have been doing photography much longer than I have been contributing to wikipedia and I have familiarized myself with the standards of wikipedias Featured Pictures Im sure you and I can agree that is more than what can be said about some others who vote or try to contribute in the FPC
