All of these users seem to be displaying an unusual opposition to inclusion of Georgia (country) into Europe. Although many users have displayed such sentiments, these users and IP's seem especially active. Izzedine in this case removed Georgia from the European map and placed it on a standard globe, which he repeated several times without explanation. He pushed for excluding Georgia from Europe on talk pages by providing lists of handpicked references. Unlike most other editors who supported a more moderate Eurasia statement, he pushed the POV that Georgia was "usually" considered part of Western Asia despite its belonging to various organization - very similar in this regard to EmirKaraman. The IP, unlike more balanced supporters of Eurasia definition, pushed a radical Western/Southwestern Asia definition similar to that of Emir Karaman and Izzedine. Both the IP and Izzedine also edited a quite obscure article Greater Syria not too far apart in this 500 edits summary. Ludovica91 (talk) 23:23, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Update
HelloAnnyong, I cannot provide you with any pattern related to these users other than the pattern of pursuing the aforementioned POV with a particular zeal. Even if there is a general editing pattern when dealing with sockpuppets, the initial user Izzedine has already been blocked for sockpuppetry so nothing gives me the right to assume that he has not learned a lesson from this; by that I mean, learned a way to disguise himself. I have been following this Georgia circus for some time now and this fanatical anti-European stance is my primary suspicion, nothing else. There are other opposing editors too but their tone is not nearly as categorical.

And yes, my first edit is regarding sockpuppetry investigation. I am a regular reader of wikipedia and not everyone has time to dedicate her life to editing these pages. I just want this anti-Georgian campaign to be over. And yes, I am an ethnic Georgian, I hope you do not deem that a disqualifying circumstance.--Ludovica91 (talk) 04:06, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

 * I'm not really seeing it, aside from having edited a few articles in common. Can you give specific diffs showing similar patterns in editing or something? —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 00:42, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
