Caustic3 was blocked for one week starting on 30 April; the PantheraLeo17 account was created the very next day, on 1 May. PantheraLeo17 immediately began editing the Boris Yeltsin article ( and ) in order to restore material written by Caustic3 which other editors had removed (see the edit history for the Yeltsin page here). In doing so PantheraLeo17 engaged in edit warring, the same behaviour that Caustic3 was blocked for (as noted here). The edit summaries of the two users are similar; fairly lengthy, employing the first person, and complaining that the article is "pro-Yeltsin". A minor point, but the names of the two accounts resemble each other by having a number immediately following a word. Midnightblueowl (talk) 20:07, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

 * It's pretty obvious this is block evasion, but I'm going to assume this was a one-time event. Indef the sock no tags, 1 week for the master (i.e. reinstate the evaded block for the same amount of time), AGF account fully exhausted. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:17, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
