UkraineToday is already the subject of an indefinite block. Last week his sockpuppet 193.243.156.214 was blocked for a month. Notwithstanding these blocks he is now using 81.23.24.5 to abuse my talk page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Timberframe
Many of his phrases are identical to those he has posted under previous guises (listed above) on wiki. The addition of the link to the smear site http://p-ced.blogspot.com is his unique trademark, see for example the comments made under the name UkrToday two weeks ago at http://www.pravda.com.ua/en/news/2008/1/2/9681.htm and http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:Rj7Vis4msasJ:forum.pravda.com.ua/read.php%3F9,3590270,3627816+p-ced.blogspot.com&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=6&gl=uk (the latter is a google cache as UP are purging their forum of UkraineToday's abuse). His blogsite melbournecitycouncil.blogspot.com (see previous UkraineToday sockpuppet cases for the link between UkraineToday and this blog) contains redirection code to send readers to the smear site. The only difference from previous abuses is that for the first time he is using an ISP in Kyiv (Kiev), Ukraine, rather than his more local ISPs in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
edit 27/01/2008: added 81.17.128.174 to the list of sockpuppets; the evidence is that this IP has been used to resume the arguments and revert wars where 193.243.156.214 left off when he was blocked as a sockpuppet of UkraineToday - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutional_Court_of_Ukraine, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainian_parliamentary_election%2C_2007, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2007_Ukrainian_political_crisis.
The prior case is here: Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/UkraineToday. — Rlevse • Talk • 22:06, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
On further research it appears that 81.23.24.5 is a dynamically allocated IP address and blocking it is therefore unlikely to affect UkraineToday's access. To date he's only used this ISP once, and that to vandalise my talk page rather than anything important. DDima has re-instated the block on 81.17.128.174, so I'm happy to have this case closed.Timberframe (talk) 13:10, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
