Following repeated blocks of this user which he has evaded by obtaining new IP adrresses, he continues to reinstate his self-published sources, post unsigned personal abuse, delete bot signing of his previous unsigned abuse, and vandalise other people's edits. The style and content of the contribs by 193.243.157.214 (see for example [[1]], [[2]], [[3]] and [[4]])and ElectAnalysis (see [[5]] are identical in contenet and style of abuse to those posted repeatedly by UkraineToday under his many previously reported sockpuppets, most recently 193.243.156.214 and 81.23.24.5.
See previous sock puppet reports listing his other user names and IPs [[6]] and [[7]]
It goes without saying that this latest IP address, like all the others he's used bar one, belongs to an ISP registered in Kharkiv, Ukraine, and his narrow range of interest - contemporary Ukrainian politics and Melboure - is identical to that of UkraineToday.
user:ElectAnalysis was reported for 3RR and blocked pending this sockpuppet report. Soon after 81.23.24.4 appeared, restoring ElectAnalysis' edits with a similar summary style, and appears to be another sockpuppet, this one block-evading. Jd2718 (talk) 16:30, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
193.243.157.184 proposes exactly the same edits, uses the same terminolgy and even shares the same spelling mistakes as previous incarnations of UkraineToday. All these incarnations appear sequentially as previous ones are blocked or logged here Timberframe (talk) 13:07, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki is not…, wiki in disrepute
This user is a persistent vandal, abuser and POV pusher. He singles me out as harassing him, but in fact his edits have been reverted by many people (see for example history of talk page for Ukrainian election, 2007) and he until recently he persistently refused to engage in discussion even when invited; lately he has started to use talk pages but only to talk, not to listen. He has a track record, as the diffs show, of vandalising links which are unfavourable to his POV, and repeatedly reinstating POV pieces in multiple locations in the face of consensus. He has been repeatedly warned and blocked by an ever growing number of editors for abuse, 3RR, POV pushing, self-publicising and issuing legal threats. He clearly has no respect for the societal basis of wiki, nor for the peer judgements made on his edits and behaviour. I move that this and all his previously confirmed sock-puppets be blocked indefinitely in line with the indef block already imposed on the puppetmaster account.
Since I posted this case, other users have identified further IP addresses as sockpuppets of the same user. To date these are all provided by Ukrainian mobile phone operator Kyivstar GSM from their block 81.23.24.0 - 81.23.31.255. User UkraineToday also used an IP address from this range a few days ago (see previous sockpuppet case). It would appear that IP addresses from this block are not associated with specific subscribers but allocated at random for each subscriber session. Therefore the only effective response in this case would be to block the whole IP range, to the possible detriment of legitimate editors who subscribe to this ISP. This can't be a new problem for wiki; what approach has been taken to dynamic IP addresses in the past? Timberframe (talk) 10:01, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It would be nice to use WP:RFCU for confirmation but the user account has been blocked since September, so it would come back stale. Jehochman Talk 13:54, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
By tone, area of interest, and style, the above accounts all appear to be under control of the puppetmaster. The puppetmaster was blocked for legal threats and email harassment. I am blocking all of these accounts for block evasion (and range blocking 81.23.24.4/26 because of the severe, repeated misconduct and frequent use of many addresses in that range).
