User:Janicar has edit warred to include additions to the Great Seljuq Empire article. Included in this edit war are identical edits by 131.180.143.48 and 80.112.146.109. IP 80.112.146.109's edit summary reads verbatim of Janicar's edit summaries, "Undid disruptive editing". Also, this IP and Janicar's edits on Imia/Kardak are identical.

 * I noticed recent edit warring by 80.112.146.109 on Great Seljuq Empire. The behavioral evidence that 80.112.146.109 is Janicar looks good. Both Janicar and this IP have made contentious edits on that article. I would be inclined to block the IP for one month. The other IP is also from Delft, Holland but has made only one edit, which is too few to bother with. If possible we should be encouraging Janicar to use his registered account. In my opinion, admins should crank up the enforcement at Great Seljuq Empire until we can get the actual participants (no matter how many identities they may be using) to actively use the talk page. For background see the March 16 3RR report opened by Kansas Bear, which closed with a 24-hour block of Janicar for edit warring. EdJohnston (talk) 05:50, 24 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Blocked Janicar for 1 week and IP for 1 week, though doubt that it will contain the disruption. Closing. Rschen7754 09:01, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
