The contributions of these accounts revolve around the promotion of the self-published pamphlets of Michael Nikoletseas in several language editions of WP. Nikoletseas is an ordinary neuroscientist who is self-publishing small books on Ancient Greek literature, philosophy etc.; see the deletion discussions for the articles on him in English-language WP, and Greek-language WP: Articles for deletion/Michael Nikoletseas, Michael Nikoletseas @ Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard, Μιχάλης Νικολετσέας/Πρόταση διαγραφής.

Michael Nikoletseas (the real person) admitted that he has been using both Albirich and Elperir accounts:, User Albirich (=Nikoletseas) had created the English and Greek articles on himself, both now deleted (cf. initial version of the English article with wrong title). As far as VanishedUser sdu9aya9fs654654 is concearned, besides the user's global contributuions, there is also this statement on the user page of the Greek-language WP, meaning "Working in neurosciences, medicine, philosophy, on Homer, and Greek and English literature", in other words "I am Michael Nikoletseas". User VanishedUser sdu9aya9fs654654 has also uploaded at Commons two photos of himself, both now speedely deleted. Chalk19 (talk) 14:10, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

 * I think all accounts, esp. VanishedUser sdu9aya9fs654654, must be globally blocked (by a stewart?) given the cross-wiki nature of the abuse. ——Chalk19 (talk) 08:11, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
