| Kaz is an editor who was blocked for disruptive edits concerning ]. He was also blocked for operating both a second user name and an IP as socks editing on Crimean Karaites and related articles. The similarities between Kaz and Budo have led me to believe that they are the same person. Though Budo was not using the same IP as Kaz at the time of Kaz's sock-pupetting block. I believe that the Budo ID edits from a webcafe or or free wireless internet. | |||
| WordsWorth did 3 edits on 13 November. | |||
| * was to the Crimean Karaites article suggesting it be merged into Kaz/Budo's POV fork ]. | |||
| *Another created ] and outed him. The wording of this was remarkably similar to that used in ]. Admin Beeblebrox deleted this edit by the Wordsworth ID, and blocked the latter for harassing another user. | |||
| The following lists similarities between Budo and Kaz. | |||
| Both Budo and Kaz created POV forks of the ] article, and created networks of redirects to them. | |||
| *] 7 November 2012 created this POV fork. This is similsr to one of Kaz's versions of the Crimean Karaites article. ] shows that he created redirects. (most of these are new, so I cannot do diffs). | |||

| *] (sock of Kaz) on 5 October 2012 created this POV fork., which is again similar. he also created a web of redirects to the POV fork article. (There ere originally more redirects, but some were deleted in the clean up afterwards.) | |||

| *] created his first POV fork of the Crimean Karaites article on 29-30 August 2012. He did not do a web of redirects to this one, but he did propose that the Crimean Karaites article be merged to it (just as has happened with Budo's Karaite Folk POV fork article. | |||
| Both Budo and Kaz make similar ad hominem attacks on other editors, for example: | |||
| *Budo, 9 October 2012, | |||
| *62.255.75.224 (Kaz's IP), 8 October 2012, | |||
| Both Budo and Kaz make untruthful citations to sources: | |||
| *Budo 12 November 2012, and 14 November, cites a source, that he says justifies a statement that there are only 80 Crimean Karaites in the world. It actually says that 80 are expected to attend a meeting. | |||
| *Budo posted this link], stating that "the tombstone is inscribed in Karaite language using Hebrew Letters". Неполканов has pointed out that the inscription is in the Hebrew language. | |||
| *If you look at ] you will see a discussion of Kaz' misrepresenting sources. | |||

| ] was blocked at 6 October 2012 due to for disruptive editing of his POV on page ] | |||
| Please compare ] with posted by ] page commented by him as""Independently corroborated brief summary of information from the 6 volume Karaite Folk Encyclopedia". Obviously the versions are almost identical. | |||
| In ] he claims that does not accept ] blocking ,motivating it as personal issues between ] and other editors. | |||
| Please refer to ]'s showing that at last to weeks all his efforts are to change links to original ] page by links to his ] POV ] page. | |||
| In his editing ] original and accepted page he tries to reduce significance of this page by some ridiculous changes like ] 80 in the world.] | |||
| After that he use this change to claim that | |||
| Probably ] misunderstands the meaning of Crimean Karaites (Karaim) term (ethnic group having origin from Crimea but leaving all over the word). The issue is explained on ] page, but all efforts to explain him were useless.He continues repetitive removing links to RS regarding ] population outside the Crimea. | |||

| :My belief is that Budo and Kaz are the same person. At the time the IP check was done during the Kaz sock puppet investigation, they were not using the same IP. The Budo ID probably edits from an internet cafe or free wireless internet area. | |||

| *{{endorse}} I've added and endorsed a checkuser request, and added a discussion from my talk page. I was reviewing rather skeptically, but the more I looked, the more possible this looked. The links are in the hatted portion, but the timing and choices of article topics, combined with behavior on the article talk page that looks forced from someone that claims that English is their native tongue, leads to believe that the likelihood of a match is very, very high. Because the account is old, from 2003, but seldom used, I feel CU is the proper way to insure these do indeed link up. ] - ] ] <small><b>]</b></small> 23:54, 15 November 2012 (UTC) | |||
