Per comments at Wikipedia:Teahouse#miss world bulgaria, miss universe bulgaria. If so, 'User:Vivian kk' may also be involved (per the former's "I am the creator of the "Miss World Bulgaria" page").

In March and October 2024 two Wictoriamalawi actors were active at Miss Universe Bulgaria. Don't know how informative that is but just wanted to say I noticed it. My notes on this SPI case pointed at Thailand in several ways that I could see. ☆ Bri (talk) 21:52, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Additional information needed – @Pigsonthewing, it does seem like the Vivian kk is probably their old account based on their Teahouse comment, but I'm not sure I see the connection to Wictoriamalawi. Can you clarify what the connection is to this case? MCE89 (talk) 20:21, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

- I can see that they're both editing about beauty pageants, but beyond that I'm not seeing much similarity. Star Models and Vivian kk have been focused on Bulgarian beauty pageants, while Wictoriamalawi edited a much broader range of pages. Vivian kk also registered their account six years before this master — it would be fairly unusual for someone to accrue more than 10,000 edits in less than a year on the Wictoriamalawi account while also occasionally editing from the much older Vivian kk account. Is there anything else that I'm missing here? MCE89 (talk) 20:45, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
- Star Models said their "original account was deleted"; Vivian kk isn't blocked, so we can presume they refer to another account that was. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:46, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
- That’s possible, but they may also have thought that the Vivian kk account was deleted for some reason (e.g. if they forgot the password and then couldn’t get back in). Do you have any reason to believe that the deleted account they’re referring to is one of the blocked accounts associated with this SPI? MCE89 (talk) 22:56, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Closing without action for now. There's no actionable information in this case. Feel free to re-report, preferably with diffs and behavioural comparison beyond a vague [e]diting patterns

Staraction (talk · contribs) 20:38, 11 August 2026 (UTC)- "Star Models said their "original account was deleted"; Vivian kk isn't blocked, so we can presume they refer to another account that was" is not "a vague [e]diting patterns".
