I am very inclined to believe all these accounts are sockpuppets of one user - User:LAz17. Just check his special cotributions and compare them with the others: Benkovac, 124.181.62.48, 124.181.187.215, 124.177.49.44, Benkovac's IP when he forgot to log on. I am not that sure for Wermania but similarity in the way he vandalized those articles and similarity in the methods somehow led me to believe this is also one of his sockpuppets. Fkzeljo is yet another specific case, I am putting him on this list because he recently joined the discussion and voted here like a lightning from a blue sky, there is no indication how he might have gotten the information about this since it seems his interest are supposed to be strickly football subjects, now suddenly he comes in and cast's a vote. I am very supscious of vote stacking here (we have three of all these accounts and IP's voting). I have also reported this on WP:ANI (Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Massive disruption) and at User_talk:Steel359#Hello_again earlier . --No.13 15:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Comment. As you can see from changes to this case User:LAz17 confirmed now himself that the 124.177.49.44 (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · proxy check · block user · block log · cross-wiki contribs · CheckUser (log)) is one of his IPs as can be seen from this change. Also as you can see here and here he pretends to be talking to another person while now it is evident that he is talking to himself. It is more than clear this user uses sockpuppets to promote his goals and do serious disruptions on Wikipedia as presented. --No.13 07:48, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Vote stacking confirmed on [1]. As you can see from this change here he already voted and then he again voted here made 13:52, 30 July 2007 as anonymous IP 124.177.49.44. Now since this is self-confirmed I think it would be no suprise to confirm User:Fkzeljo is just another of his sockpuppets he used for vote stacking and others for other disruptions on Wikipedia. --No.13 08:02, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Possbly yet another vote stacking attempt by the same user using proxy server. You can see User_talk:130.194.13.105 is a proxy server, you can also observe from [this change] it used the same rhetoric and didn't sign himself just as LAz17 and his sockpuppets often do not sign himself. I am convinced this is yet another example of LAz17 trying to thwart the voting process rules. --No.13 10:35, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

I have to draw your attention to the contributions of the user:Benkovac, suspected sockpuppet. His only contributions (besides revert-warring) were categorizing of articles (and massive recategorizing) into problematic category ("former towns of RSK..."), the same thing Special:Contributions/124.177.49.44 (30th July, 10:11 - 16:06) and Special:Contributions/124.181.62.48 (on 29th July, 02:29 - 03:13 and 14:50 - 15:30) did. Also, user:Benkovac engaged in the voting process on that category Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2007_July_29#Category:Former_Towns_of_RSK_1991-95. Kubura 11:24, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

User:Wermania began with POV-editing on 29th July from 02:55 - 03:08 (about the same time as Special:Contributions/124.181.62.48 (possibly two computers in a library, university or similar?)... with his reverts on the articles Baćin massacre, Saborsko massacre and Škabrnja massacre, the articles I've recently created/edited. After I've reported him to admins twice, suddenly, user:Nikola Smolenski appears on 31st July with his reverts on article of the same topic, that I've created, Široka Kula massacre. Maybe they are two users with similar interests. But - I haven't had direct contacts nor editwars with Nikola Smolenski, to make him "follow" my contributions and had such prompt reactions on my article, as Wermania had. What made him to out-of-nowhere come to that article? Kubura 12:19, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

I am not a sock puppet. This other person might be, but I am not. There are more people that happen to have the same view, which is one that you do not like. (LAz17 20:49, 30 July 2007 (UTC)).

I took the effort to welcome User:Benkovac, although he might have some connection with LAz17. Bearian 17:52, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

 Confirmed that Benkovac (talk · contribs) and Fkzeljo (talk · contribs) are sockpuppets of Majstor_Mile (talk · contribs). All other accounts unrelated; no comment on the IP addresses. Mackensen (talk) 15:52, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
