This is related to edits to Soviet war in Afghanistan over the last week-plus a bit. I have indeffed the accounts HIAB noted above (through Rooskiey) as obvious duck test socks. I added and  - they are both very new (1 month old) and showed up participating in the same back and forth the sockpuppets which are only a few days old were doing. I recommend CU on them...

 * Justification for checkuser - the accounts have been created over a couple of weeks, and many are old enough to pass the semiprotection time limit now. We have two more accounts here that might behaviorally be related but are primarily working on other topic areas.  The volume and persistence here makes sleepers likely, and a CU justified.

All accounts (that I managed to copy/paste correctly) are tagged and all accounts are (for sure) blocked indefinitely. All IPs are blocked, and I implemented rangeblocks where feasible. I think I'm finally done. for now... J.delanoy <sup style="color:red;">gabs <sub style="color:blue;">adds 22:18, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
