Disruptive editing to same Bulgarian and Balkan-related articles, IPs from Sofia, Bulgaria. They have high interaction, and use the same speech. 46.16.193.70—78.159.147.70 Diffs1, Diffs2, Diffs3, Diffs4.--Z oupan 18:31, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Admin action needed - It seams to me that 46.16.193.70 and 78.159.147.70 definitely belong to the same person who uses them illegitimately (see: and,  and ,  and ). They should be both blocked for a week (the IPs look static). I can't find so conclusive evidence of sockpuppetry in other three IPs' edits.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  23:07, 1 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Convinced that, , and are the same person given the article/area overlap, geographical location, and a tell. Can't be certain if the others are socks or just editors sharing same pov. Blocking the three IPS for two weeks given that 78.159 was previously blocked for a week on July 15th, during which time the user evaded the block using 46.16 instead. Ready to close IMO. Consider asking for semi-protection at Constantine Bodin and Serbs in Bulgaria if problem persists or escalates. Abecedare (talk) 04:18, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Opening case to record that the above IPs have been blocked as disruptive sockpuppets (per WP:DUCK) for a month and a couple of their targets semi-protected (by me and other admin(s)). Abecedare (talk) 16:51, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
