At this AfD BiNA claims to have edited Dmytro Drogalchuk, however this is not the case (although they had previously written a now-deleted article about the same subject, Dmytro Baker. See this AfD, there's also suspicious similarities there). Despite this, and despite not having any messages on their talkpage from editors involved in the discussion, they show up to comment on the freshly-made AfD, right after Great Cockroach. The patterns of speech for both accounts (as well as their continuous misunderstanding of Wikipedia notability guidelines) is also extremely similar. While some of this could presumably be attributed to their shared background as Ukrainian speakers, as someone who has spent a fair amount of time with various Ukrainian people, I would maintain that even with this knowledge their manner of writing is still extremely similar and warrants investigation. signed,Rosguill talk 23:50, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Additional comment Prior to their block, the user pages for both Great Cockroach and BiNA had links to accounts on Ukrainian wiki. I don't know if there's any procedure for investigating there based on findings here (or for that matter, if the accounts that were pointed to on Ukrainian wiki were even operated by the same person, although at the very least Great Cockroach seems to clearly be the same person on both wikis), but figured it was worth mentioning here. signed,Rosguill talk 08:40, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
