 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

User:Bolekpolivka was blocked for a month in June 2008. The user placed an unblock request on his talk page, but the request was declined, see Special:PermanentLink/216925524. The [ block log] tells that the user has been blocked for sockpuppetry twice (with one block term extension because of continued sockpuppetry). The account User:Mariaflores1955 was created a few days after the account User:Bolekpolivka was blocked. The new account started editing the same article as the other account and seems to have agreed about how to formulate a few things. They both seem to edit mainly articles about Germans from the first half of the 20th century. User:Bolekpolivka was very active before the block, but didn't return once unblocked. On the other hand, User:Mariaflores1955 immediately become very active. In 2009, User:Bolekpolivka returned by posting messages on two talk pages where things weren't going in User:Mariaflores1955's way, praising the work of User:Mariaflores1955. See Talk:Joachim Peiper and Talk:1st Armoured Division (Poland). After that, nothing until today: things weren't going in User:Mariaflores1955's way in two recent discussions, and out of nowhere did User:Bolekpolivka pop up, giving his support for User:Mariaflores1955. See and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history. In the second case, the user was not necessarily supporting User:Mariaflores1955, but instead the user provided some e-mail addresses for verifying User:Mariaflores1955's claims. Apart from the listed discussions, User:Bolekpolivka's only other post-block edits constitute removal of text from his own talk page.

Thus, summarised: The account User:Mariaflores1955 was created when the account User:Bolekpolivka had been blocked. After that, the account User:Bolekpolivka has only been used in situations where the account User:Mariaflores1955 has been running into trouble with other people. Somehow, I suspect that both accounts are operated by the same person. Stefan2 (talk) 19:28, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Addition: I added because the IP address removed the SPI notification from User talk:Mariaflores1955 and also the puf template from a file uploaded by User:Mariaflores1955. Meanwhile, User:Bolekpolivka has been vandalising my user page by inserting a sentence in a mixture of three different Scandinavian languages, later changing it to a mixture of only two different Scandinavian languages. --Stefan2 (talk) 21:10, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Requesting CU wrt the named accounts as it seems likely there's some sort of connection here. Resorting to [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AStefan2&diff=511747993&oldid=508901607 vandalism] as a response to the SPI is certainly not a good sign. Bolekpolivka supporting Mariaflores1955 in discussions would be blatant deception if it turns out that this is indeed socking. Jafeluv (talk) 07:31, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
