Kszapsza was the only oppose to the MaxTV AfD (diff). The AfD was proposed by, and now these three IP's, all registered in Poland (one to a confirmed dynamic IP provider), have begun vandalising ATinySliver's user and talk page diffs here: one, two, three, four, five, and six.

 * Looking here possibly another reason exists for this attack... EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 20:10, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * This user appears to be a different editor, but I'm mentioning them just considering their only substantial edits have been complaining to ATinySliver about the deletion, see above link. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 20:14, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

There is also this IP who is attacking ATinySliver on his talk page.

As well, while I was typing this, another IP made a similar edit. -- Orduin  Discuss 21:27, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Interesting that his/her/their/its little insults were couched within requests to edit a protected page, as opposed to simple vandalism; demonstrating a rudimentary&mdash;but only so&mdash;knowledge of Wikipedia ... &mdash; ATinySliver &#47; ATalkPage  21:54, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

I'm really active in another Wikimedia projects, I respect everyone user and contributor of projects and I'd like to contribute them further, so please believe me and acquit me, I do not have anything to do with the attacks on the user ATinySiiver and I did not use any puppets." ChceckUsers opinions about such IPs might be helpful for me, so I request checking (and cleansing me of the charges!) Sincerely, Kszapsza  (user talk '') 13:57, 18 February 2015 (UTC) ( Please be careful with the disclosure of personal data and social profiles, it can be a violation of my privacy! )
 * There appears to be another reason for this, unrelated to Sockpuppeting., with over 1,310 1,389 (and counting) likes condemning the deletion and providing a link to ATinySliver's page. I've reported it to facebook as harassment but I doubt anything will get done... EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 21:43, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, you found it. I'd just started looking for exactly that (which will teach me to actually read through the posts to my talk page ...). &mdash; ATinySliver &#47; ATalkPage  21:58, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I have written in another place about this matter, but I will quote here everything: "I will never have an idea too make sockpuppets. Having thought that the combination and integration of articles can be a good option, I have resigned completely with decision after AfD discussions. I only completed little things in biography Max Kolonko. Since then, I didn't visit the English Wikipedia at all. Now, when I was working on Polish Wikipedia and when I wanted to check something in English version of article, I see this scandal... I didn't know about any attacks on ATinySliver at all. The only reason of these attacks on ATinySliver page might be a post of Kolonko on his Facebook site, where he was writing about deletion of MaxTV article as a scandal''. I have written today to Kolonko myself and explained him, that this isn't any affair. I stress once again, the case I have nothing in common. I edit only with your account, Kszapsza. I have never made anonymous editions on English Wikipedia. I did not expect that creation of such an article (MaxTV) might make so big confusion.
 * Would like to clarify a few things. First I believe this SPI can be closed now as external evidence of a different reason for a bunch of Polish IP's changing his page has been found. Second the link is to a semi-famous persons Facebook who posted a link to ATinySliver's page (which is the reason for all the attacks). I was not (and still am not) implying any relationship between the Facebook post and the user above. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 15:41, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

My apologies for the inclusion of personal data. &mdash; ATinySliver &#47; ATalkPage 20:16, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

In an attempt to liberate Kszapsza from any further claims of sockpuppetry I am posting this, correctly redacted for privacy screenshot. Screenshot. It is now my belief that he had nothing to do with the IP attacks, but that this Facebook post by someone else triggered them. I will let you pro SPI clerks make the decision. Thanks!

 * If you want I can translate this post precisely. It says: "They have deleted MaxTV article from English Wikipedia! Wikipedians, please help! ATinySliver was deleting us for months" - as you can see bolded "us" was just providing about inciting communities to restore Mr. Kolonko article and create confusion for the user ATinySliver. Thank you for understanding me. Sincerely, Kszapsza  (user talk ) 14:25, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Everyone seems satisfied that the IPs and Kszapsza are unrelated, so closing. Will leave it to the clerks to decide whether it's worth archiving this or just deleting it for the sake of Kszapsza's reputation. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  12:55, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
