Naxsy was created on 4 November 2023, not long after Andriyrussu was indeffed on 22 October and the sock User:GultenTasgin was blocked the next day. Naxsy also focuses on Ukrainian footballers and their user page is almost identical to the last version of the sock's user page, with the same references to the computer game Football Manager in the latest version of the user page (see for example the previous version of Andriyrussu's user page and this exchange).

Note that the account User:Hopehopiii was created today at 21:50 to continue with similar edits. Mellk (talk) 22:33, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another Portugal-based IP that focuses on Ukrainian footballers and edits the same articles as previous socks e.g. List of Ukrainian people in football who plays or played in Russian occupied territories of Ukraine and List of foreign Ukrainian Premier League players. Here they use almost the same edit summary as here by the sock User:Naxsy. The same IP also makes a revert on Viktor Tsukanov which the sock Naxsy later restores before the account was blocked.

Pretty obvious block evasion, BunicaValea account created immediately after Cavide96 block. Same exact area of editing. BlameRuiner (talk) 08:17, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Their very first edit on List of Ukrainian people in football who plays or played in Russian occupied territories of Ukraine was restoring a sock edit which was reverted here. Mellk (talk) 09:07, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - They need to be very careful. If they keep doing this, they could well get a community ban. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 22:49, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
