 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by Historičar


 * On Talk:Bosnian language User:Ivan Štambuk continued to push POV by Croatian nationalists, early invented by User:Mir Harven. When Mir Harven stopped to work on the thing, he was replaced by Ivan Štambuk in exactly the same tone and arguments. For example:


 * User:Mir Harven included this argument into the article:.


 * User:Ivan Štambuk used the same argument with the same link, with the same language style, with the same insults in the talk page:

Their argument is an analysis by Croatian representative R. Dodig, from the same link.


 * The English of both users is nearly identical, the same insults, same arrogance.


 * Both accounts are similar. Both of them are mostly interested in Balkan-related language articles. Both of them had many conflicts with other users.

In conclusion, I'm aware that the evidence may seem a little bit strange but I do believe it justifies a check because of precise the same arguments, from the same page, same POV pushing. The possibility is definitely there. Regards.

 * This report is a response to my report on User:Historičar . Its a way to "get back" at User:Ivan Štambuk and myself. User:Ivan Štambuk is simply not anybody's sockpuppet. Be advised that User:Historičar also tried to report me for sockpuppeteering without even having an idea who my alleged sock is . As I said, its just "revenge", not a serious report. -- DIREKTOR  ( TALK ) 20:26, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
