User:Rts freak and User:Ivan Kricancic cooperated in History_of_the_Bosniak_people article in order to revert changes. They pretended to be different users. User:Rts freak pretented to be an ethnic Bosniak, while Ivan Kricancic according to his user page hates the Bosniak people. This is obvious abuse in Bosniak History article: [1] and [2]. Two "different" reverts by suspected sock puppet in "controversial" article. Second thing is that he pretends to be a Bosniak which is rude and unfair, in order to humiliate a nation.
Apart from ex-yu articles, it seems that "they" share interests in Smallville, notably Allison Mack ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), Sam Jones III ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), Kristin Kreuk ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Yours. Kruško. Kruško Mortale 16:23, 22 December 2006 (UTC) reply
First of all, I take offence at being called a "sockpuppet". Second of all, it is very offensive for Kruško to accuse me of not being a Bosniak - my parents are ethnic Bosniaks who migrated to Australia; does the fact that I was born in Australia mean I'm any less Bosniak. Besides, I think that growing up in Australia where there are many migrant communities has given me the ability to interact better with people of different backgrounds, which is why I can interact in a civil manner with users such as Ivan Kricancic (who, is not a full Croat - it states on his user page that he is Croat, Filipino and Spanish). I have read the talk page of History of the Bosniak people and it seemed to me that the tags are indeed justified, so I put them back on the article. I won't edit that article or it's talk page until this case is over, though, just in case some sort of conflict of interest arises. And, no, from Ivan's user page, I would not say that he hates Bosniaks, but it is easy to see that he is ill-informed about us as he thinks that we are just Croats and Serbs who converted to Islam. But I believe that working with him on former-yugo article on Wikipedia can help to educate him about Bosniaks, until his point of view about us will be changed. Another point is, just because I share an interest in Smallville does not make me a sockpuppet of Ivan's - there are many users who contribute to Smallville articles, are they all someone's sockpuppets as well? I really think that it is very possible (in fact it's happening right now) that at least two people who have a South Slavic ethnic background could be interested in articles about their ancestry and also share an interest in a certain T.V show (especially since both Ivan and I are from Australia). My final thing to say is, that I even had suspicions that, based on their edit style, edit patterns and use of broken English, User:Kruško Mortale was a sockpuppet of User:Bosniak or User:Ancient Land of Bosoni (the latter of whom also has the accounts User:Ancient Bosoni and User:Bosoni), but I didn't make any accusations because that would have been bad faith behaviour on my part, just like this is bad faith behaviour on Kruško's part, because he's just doing this because I made one edit that he didn't agree with. I hope you admins make the right decision. Goodbye. - [rts_freak] | 5p34k 2 /\/\3 23:38, 22 December 2006 (UTC) reply

Case proven. Besides common interests, origins, and residences, they both edit the exact same deletion disputes minutes after each other, with the same opinions, and even same misspellings (it's). If they aren't the same person, they are brothers editing from the same computer.
Blocking Rts_freak, strongly warning Ivan Kricancic not to do that again. -- AnonEMouse (squeak) 17:19, 2 February 2007 (UTC) reply
