The only actual edits this user has made have been to write a nonsense article Vukopis that basically supported Slavić's theories on how Croatian today is somehow an evil twin of its real self. Slavić is indef-blocked basically for promoting the same nonsense esp. at his other pet project article, Bulcsu Laszlo, which is now at AfD, where I've already blocked a glaringly obvious sockpuppet. Now that Vukopisac has appeared at the AfD touting the same party line, would someone please check that we're not dealing with the same person in this case, too. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 06:32, 1 August 2013 (UTC) Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 06:32, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

 * - Leo is already blocked as a sock of Slavic. As Vukopisac appeared as an almost-new editor on the same AFD, for an article that was one of Slavic's favorites, I think it is worth checking Slavic and leo to see if there are other socks. It was curious to me that Vukopisac would have been registered so long before Slavic was blocked, and not even used to stack votes or edit war or anything. But it made more sense once I checked their Croatian contributions: Slavic was banned on cr.wikipdia in April, and about a month and a half later Vukopisac stats editing there. Vuko's only contributions from before Slavic was blocked on en.wikipedia are from a period in time when he was also actively editing cr. wikipedia (may 21-25), which would explain why Slavic would have switched accounts for something he could have done himself - he was too lazy to log in and out while switching between projects.

 * Sorry for not providing links. Compare Vuko's ranting on this deleted talk page to Slavic's ranting on the Croatian Wikipedia. Now, it is possible that we have two independent editors who both have a similar obsession of purging the Croatian language of Serbian influences, but combining the very similar POVs with the convergence of Slavic and two suspicious accounts (leo and vuko) at Bulcsu Laszlo, I think this is enough evidence.
