There has been a nationalist edit war about Duchy of St Sava, a sort of a precursor of Herzegovina that may only have existed for a brief period in the 1400s. There could be a similar revert war happening on the Bosnian Wikipedia. There was a filing at ANI about this dispute, claiming that Great Khaan may have registered an account to continue a revert war he had started using IPs. User:RickinBaltimore blocked the first and third of the listed accounts per WP:DUCK and I found the second by running a check. This SPI is being filed for the record and does not require investigation by a clerk. EdJohnston (talk) 23:27, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

The three accounts are ✅ to each other. They are blocked indef and should probably be tagged with Great Khaan as the master. EdJohnston (talk) 23:29, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

The account was set up today and the only article/talk page posts (2) are to Talk:Duchy of St Sava (here and here). This is an obscure article that was the sole interest of User:Great Khaan, blocked yesterday for socking. Timing and obscurity of the article makes it seem unlikely that this isn’t Great Khaan. In addition, the first edits of one of Great Khaan’s other socks, user:MireyaThePrincess was to post Pink Floyd song lyrics on their user page. The first edits of Mithrandir.Mithrandir were to post on their user page what are (I believe) the lyrics of “I teach you the overman” from Zack Snyder's Justice League soundtrack.

Account created 7 April 2021 and after a couple of minor edits today posted a massively long post to Talk:Duchy of St Sava. This is an obscure article that was the sole obsession of Great Khaan (blocked for socking on 3 April 2021.) His other socks created since then only either edit this obscure talk page to support his POV or to intervene in an ANI thread about him to support him. this fits Great Khaan’s ‘wall of text’ MO and POV.

 * I saw this independently and blocked it on obvious behavioral grounds. This one was created, then made a seemingly innocuous edit, and then later got back on the soapbox. If a checkuser clerk thinks it's a good idea to save information for future correlation, please feel free. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 09:44, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
