Single-purpose IP, promoting Igor Janev. bobrayner (talk) 18:24, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

See also 178.221.217.96 (talk+ · tag · contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · proxy check · block user · spi block · block log · cross-wiki contribs · CheckUser (log)) and 212.200.218.133 (talk+ · tag · contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · proxy check · block user · spi block · block log · cross-wiki contribs · CheckUser (log)) from the same range, also seemingly controlled by the same person promoting Igor Janev, although these only made a small number of edits. I assume these are just dynamic IPs that are unlikely to be reused by this person, so blocking might not be appropriate. All these IPs are similar to those of previous Operahome socks. bobrayner (talk) 18:28, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Created another article about Igor Janev on Talk:Igor Janev, the article page being salted. I have moved it to Draft:Igor Janev pending advice whether to speedy. JohnCD (talk) 15:40, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

New IP in the same range of other known socks starting Draft:Igor_Janev with basically the same text as before. Legacypac (talk) 17:53, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have added for the record 79.101.74.115 who created the article again at Talk:Igor Janev JohnCD (talk) 13:48, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Clerk note: The IP was blocked by another admin citing the master in the block. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:05, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

79.101.74.115 also blocked 31 hr, for what that's worth. JohnCD (talk) 13:48, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Posted at Draft talk:Igor Janev a text effectively identical to the version of Draft:Igor Janev posted on 19 Dec 2014 by CU-confirmed Operahome sock Counter-Security and Counterintelligence (talk · contribs). JohnCD (talk) 21:23, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This looks like a WP:DUCK to me, but as the user has put a "retired" banner on their talk page I have not blocked at once, and leave it for a second opinion. Operahome has been quiet for so long that CU would probably not help. JohnCD (talk) 21:26, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So this user moved a sockpuppet's user talk to Igor R. Janev and turned the page into an article. Created Risto Nikovski as well. Sro23 (talk) 14:35, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Created Draft:Igor R. Janev. Could the page be deleted and salted like Draft:Igor Janev? Sro23 (talk) 18:14, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
