 * Plarem was topic banned on 24 August 2014 from editing any and all articles, or participating in discussions, related to LGBT topics anywhere on Wikipedia, broadly construed. . Sdino started to edit about 2 months later, on 29 October 2014, focusing on LGBT rights in several countries . I suspect that Plarem may have created the Sdino account to bypass the enforcement of his topic ban. The same suspicion seems to be part of an ANI complaint by 11raccoon1 (he does not name the master and gives no diffs): "Almost a year ago, a particular user got banned as he was making numerous changes not just to this article, but to many other articles concerning LGBT rights. Few days ago I have noticed identical problems happening again, but with a different user called user:sdino, who funilly enough has received warnings for the same things as the user in the past. It might be a coincidence, but it is interesting how both users are from Poland, and declare themselves to be anti gay marriage, very religious, and obviously homophobic." Sdino does not deny the allegation of socking implied in the ANI complaint.


 * Plarem and Sdino share common interests: LGBT rights in country XY, Religion in Poland etc . Both users claim they are from Poland, speaking Polish, English, Gaelic! and German, and share the same POV (opposed to same-sex marriage, conservative, catholic):.


 * Plarem shows an unusual tendency to add large amounts of pie charts with CBOS-opinion polls (creating a mess). Example:           . Sdino shares this editing style and his preference for CBOS polls:.


 * Plarem and Sdino insisted to include a pie chart (Pilarov barometer/edit war). Plarem: , Sdino:.
