"Xvint89" was created on 9 May 2017. Torredr was created less than a day after, on 10 May 2017. Every single edit both have made so far is about inserting, in a rather dogmatic way, material written by some economist/expert about "spionage". On history-related articles that is. The book is titles Fearless: A Fascinating Story of Secret Medieval Spies, and the author is a certain "Besik Aladashvili". Edit summaries are completely similar as well, e.g. Torredr; "Added a few details regarding Sultan's advance and encampment", Xvint89 "Added a couple of details regarding the 1110 capture of Samshvilde fortress by David Builder." Obvious WP:DUCK is obvious, and it reeks like some purely promotional effort as well.

 * The two accounts are, although it’s just as likely they are meat puppets. Blocking and tagging based on the technical and behavioral evidence. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:45, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
