Does Howard Kaloogian edit Wikipedia?
If you don't know who Kaloogian is, then here are some clues:

While I was going over information on Move America Forward about the "Damien Benson" story (In which Move America Forward tried to create a scandal involving a reporter who most likely does not even exist), I found this anonymous comment accusing Move America Forward's going on about left wing critics.

"I listed that from TPM since it is generally regarded as a left-of-center website which I know is in line with your political orientation based on your history of comments here at Wikipedia."

Looking at the IP address responsible for the comment, we find a collection of interesting edits. And most of them are about Howard Kaloogian and Move America Forward.

Here, the left is apparently "driven" to oppose Kaloogian.

Here, the editor threatens Wikipedia by saying that if edits critical of Kaloogian don't stop, then there will be a flood of stories titled "Wikipedia Allows Liberal Activists to Smear Conservatives" on conservative blogs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:66.81.15.226&diff=prev&oldid=47186847

And here, the editor deletes information pertaining to the fake photo of "Baghdad" that put Kaloogian in hot water.

Sounds like either Kaloogian to me, either that, or it's some guy who is really obsessed with him.

What do you think?
