IP and new user R.Saringer have begun editing on the same pages (Jabuka, Pančevo, Kačarevo and Glogonj) that AustrianFreedom was editing before he was blocked. The edits are the same style as AustrianFreedom in that there are an extremely long series of mostly small of edits in a row. The IP reverted a removal of material added by AustrianFreedom, as did R.Saringer here. R.Saringer links to the same personal website on his user page that AustrianFreedom posted on his talkpage on his talk page and AustrianFreedom had previously identified himself as Richard Saringer. The IP address is also geolocated to Austria, which, as his name suggests, is where AustrianFreedom says he lives. I believe this qualifies as WP:Duck.-- Ermenrich (talk) 02:41, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

IP has reinstated long and rambling edit performed by AustrianFreedom. Geolocates to Austria, like AustrianFreedom and other IPs he has used in the past. Has followed AustrianFreedom's usual pattern of many edits in sequence, ,. This is also a very obscure article about a small village in Serbia to which AustrianFreedom contributed significantly before. The fact that the IP is aware that it exists and claims to have knowledge of the place is in itself suspicious. As a number of edits by this IP predate AustrianFreedom's NOTHERE block, I think a search for other related accounts/IP addresses is warranted. Ermenrich (talk) 14:16, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
