Guess what? They're seemingly on my side. I think you are wasting your time trying to reinforce that shitty spelling. Kyiv Guy (talk) 07:04, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Category:Kyiv. Serols (talk) 07:07, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Considering that this account Kiev Guy was created only 4 minutes after Kyiv Guy, I suspect sockpuppetry here. Mellk (talk) 15:10, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I suspect that both accounts are sockpuppets, but I don't know whose socks are they. Spelling Kiev/Kyiv is a contentious topic that may attract many users. I have checked Kyiv Guy's contributions and they do not look controversial. Even if he/she is a second account of another user it would not probably a policy violation. On the other hand adding a newly created Category:Kiev to dozens of articles just to score a point as Kiev guy did was a very bad editorial practice Alex Bakharev (talk) 01:35, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
 * To me it looks like both were set up by the same user, with Kiev Guy set up as a strawman sock, since it was behaving very foolishly and making childish personal attacks. This sort of gives this indication to me. Mellk (talk) 15:02, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
