After SuperNepoznat gets called out for edit warring using multiple accounts, he responds as Lighthouse01:

After reverting his own insult from above, the accused (SuperNepoznat) himself establishes the connection between SuperNepoznat and Lighthouse01 by handing in a report where he accuses another person (User:No such user) of edit warring with him, but the diffs he links to are those of both SuperNepoznat and Lighthouse01:

Connection between Munjanes and SuperNepoznat:

SuperNepoznat cleaning Munjanes talk page:

Munjanes asking to have his username changed to SuperNepoznat:

Establishing link with LightWiki91 (matching edit patterns, reverting other users on articles relating to Bosnia):

Link with WikiLite91 (same as above):

Started a vote as Lighthouse01 but then later on also used WikiLite91 and SuperNepoznat to vote:

Linking 77.77.240.138 with Lighthouse01: 93.139.51.224 (talk) 11:06, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Apart from the fact that the accounts are related, they have also all acted in disruptive ways, trying to ignore consensus on various articles, pushing PoV, violating the three-revert rule, added unsourced information, removed sourced information (sometimes disgusing it in the edit summary as "fixing" or in other ways). SuperNepoznat and Lighthouse01 have both been reported to admins before. As SuperNepoznat here and as Lighthouse01 here  where they also tried to blank the report.

The person has stated (under the account Lighthouse01) that he/she will not stop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.139.51.224 (talk) 13:54, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

I'm endorsing the CU. I've blocked the master for one week for violating WP:3RR based on a report at WP:AN3. As I commented there, the connections between the named puppets is fairly obvious to me, but not so much the connection between the master and the puppets, which is why I'm endorsing the CU. I'm inclined to block the other named accounts for disruption and attacks pending the outcome of this report; I may still do so.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:21, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I forgot. Munjanes is the previous name of the master. The name was changed per policy. The account has not been used substantively since 2013.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:24, 17 May 2014 (UTC)


 * SuperNepoznat, Lighthouse, LightWiki, Wikilite, Munjanes, are all ✅ to one another. NativeForeigner Talk 11:11, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Using multiple accounts for edit-warring (to escape 3RR), nationalistic behaviour, adding unreferenced content and removing referenced (vandalism).

for: Bosnian language
 * - CodeCat appears
 * - No such user appears
 * - No such user continues edit-warring
 * - and again
 * - CodeCat edits
 * - No such user adds some "minor" edits
 * - says he reverts some edits by SP
 * - CodeCat reverts
 * - deleting content w/out explanation
 * - CodeCat restoring "LEAD" section
 * - making more edits to stop reverting
 * - same as before
 * - No such user removes referenced content (vandalizes)
 * - CodeCat deletes ref content
 * 
 * - edit warring
 * - No such user adds nonsense edits

for Sarajevo
 * - appears No such user
 * - edit-warring nationalism
 * - edit-warring nationalism
 * - CodeCat adds nationalism
 * - CodeCat adds nationalistic language name: Serbo-Croat

Unknown IP addresses:
 * - using only for reporting some user
 * - same
 * - attacks me using private name, and violating Wikipedia policy. Lumi (talk) 13:20, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Also here, CodeCat defends No such user. --Lumi (talk) 13:44, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Here, it's visible that CodeCat and NoSuchUser comments one after another . Coincidence, huh? --Lumi (talk) 11:45, 8 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Here, before upper case, unknown IP I already mentioned, writes comment about some user, just before CodeCat and Nosuchuser: --Lumi (talk) 11:51, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' Well, it does not take too much effort to identify the reporter,, as yet another sockpuppet of , blocked by for disruption and socking. Thus, WP:BOOMERANG applies. While I'm for second chances, there must be a time when we should say "enough" and apply WP:RBI. No such user (talk) 19:57, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Does your statements have base? Or just guesswork? --Lumi (talk) 20:04, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

That's some excellent detective work right there. There clearly are some correspondences in the behaviour of the above listed accounts. The question is, what's the pattern? The missing link? What connects all those? 93.141.94.92 (talk) 11:41, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

There are also more edit abusing on Bosnian language. CodeCat uses sockpuppet to escape Three-Revert-Rule (3RR). --77.77.241.250 (talk) 15:03, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

. If Luminant is confirmed as a puppet of SuperNepoznat, then this report will have to be moved. I'm endorsing the CU to nail that down (the last CU was run before Luminant existed).--Bbb23 (talk) 20:55, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
 * 50 edits and a bunch of procedural changes? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Bosnia_and_Herzegovina/Participants&diff=prev&oldid=611414308 ? WP:DUCK. Blocked Lumi. Endorse checkuser on them. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 12:35, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

I think there might be a block evasion in question. User SuperNepoznat was a Bosniak Wikipedian, who had several "Munja" (lightining) sockpuppets in various forms - MunjaWiki, Munjanes, and possibly Munja-x86. All three are Bosnians. Although, there aren't (as I assume) any edit history that would serve as a solid evidence (since the editor made only few edits since registration), I think user might, after some time, try to start editing more actively in order to avoid suspicion, and thus evade the block he previously got.

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.''

Any editor with common sense can see that User:AnulBanul is simply upset about this, and is attempting to damage User:Munja-x86's reputation.--Dragodol (talk) 05:02, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Munja-x86 is clearly a sockpuppet of SuperNepoznat, so his reputation speaks for itself. Nobody else needs to ruin it for him, he did a fine job on his own. CodeCat (talk) 12:20, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Other (closed) investigations aren't in the scope of this particular investigation, Dragodol. --AnulBanul (talk) 21:01, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * User already got standard offer, so there is not any block evasion. I would ask again clerks and admins to apply WP:BOOMERANG to user:AnulBanul for not having deeper research before putting this on WP:SPI. --Munja-x86 (talk) 10:22, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Please, provide some evidence of connection between SuperNepoznat and Munja-x86. Currently, I don't see any.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  23:38, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Five days have past since I requested more evidence, and nothing was added. Closing.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  00:02, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
