":: I think it's arguable that the opinions of a person said by some of the editors to be using a sock should be disregarded.  If Gabrielsimon has been determined to be a sock puppet by our Sock-smeller Poursuivaunt, David Gerard, or by consensus of administrators on WP:ANI, then I'll discount his vote.  

 :: When I'm saying I think it's plausible that you're somebody's sock, and go on to say if that is the case I've counted your vote already, it's to illustrate that I'm trying to level the playing field.  I know these votes attract socks, so I use a uniform criterion: 100 votes and one month (that's AND, not OR) and some other nonsense filters. If you pass it, you're in.  I discount your vote because, as it is plausible that you're a sock, you would probably have voted already.  We have thousands of editors. If an article really needs to be deleted, some of those thousands of editors will come forward and ask for it to be deleted.  There's no need for me to take notice of votes from very recent newcomers. 

 : Now as to the content of the article-for the most part, I'm content to let the two dozen or so other people involved in the discussion to deal with that. If you can't agree among yourselves that something needs to be done to the article, then I call ""keep"" by default.
