User "Ricemaster12" established their account on December 22, 2022, with a particular [[WP:FRINGE]]/[[WP OV]] fixation right from the outset: the notion of "South Asianizing" Iran, along with the integration of Central Asia and Afghanistan into regions extending westward and northward (geographically). By April 15, 2023, according to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Ricemaster12], the "Ricemaster12" account found itself on shaky ground, as its disruptive edits faced constant reversal by seasoned users, and its talk page contributions were met with similar disapproval. On that very same day, a new user, "WikiAmerican," emerged suddenly and began propagating and advocating for the same fringe perspective that "Ricemaster12" had originally introduced and pursued ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:West_Asia&diff=prev&oldid=1165432388]). | User "Ricemaster12" was created on December 22, 2022, with a particular [[WP:FRINGE]]/[[WPOV]] fixation right from the outset: the notion of "South Asianizing" Iran, along with the integration of Central Asia and Afghanistan into regions extending westward and northward (geographically).

| :Both accounts try to present themselves as acquainted with Iran/being of Iranian descent on their user pages, which I believe is done in order to mislead those around themselves as being "legit"([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ricemaster12]-[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:WikiAmerican1]). The idea of an Iranian aligning themselves with South Asia would be akin to an Italian claiming or representing Italy as part of North Africa or Central Europe, in terms of a geographical analogy, thus highlighting the absurdity of the situation. - [[User:LouisAragon|LouisAragon]] ([[User talk:LouisAragon|talk]]) 23:22, 4 May 2024 (UTC) | |
