Suspected sockpuppets
The three started to make the same vandal edit on Niš earlier today. They might be the same person or maybe friends. Sremsky and Qrchina also have edits on visa requirements. A CU is needed to see if they are related or not. Ktrimi991 (talk) 21:01, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Djodjor especially needs to be carefully checked by a CU if they are connected with accounts other than the ones listed above by me. Djodor's edits on wars involving Paraguay and terrorist attacks in Australia, uncommon interests for Serbian editors, resemble edits made by who also tried to remove some of that content from the Niš article in the past. Another account,  made the same vandal edit a few hours ago on Niš. Maybe there is some off-wiki coordination because all these accounts vandalizing Niš can't be the same person (Sremsky and Vladosaur for example seem to be from different cities).

 * - clearly something fishy going on, please CU to investigate the relationship between these accounts and check for others if applicable. The editing pattern on that page (there are a few other accounts and IPs involved) makes me suspect some sort of off-wiki canvassing, but socking is also a possibility.

 * are all leaning towards  to each other.  The all geolocate to the same general area, and are using similar browsers, but it's a very common browser, so that's almost meaningless.  .  ElderZamzam appears to be ❌. -- RoySmith (talk) 19:44, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Given the CU results, I'll assume this was a case of off-wiki canvassing. I see that Blablubbs has increased the protection level to ECP, and I've handed out some discretionary sanctions alerts. Hopefully that helps. Closing.  Spicy (talk) 23:08, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
