Catflap08 and Hijiri88 discussion at AN

This edit by Hijiri88, his first in so far as I can tell his history (given his multiple accounts and IPs) to the article about Catflap08's home town, strikes me as being extremely dubious. I have commented at AN that this seems to me to be crossing the line as being some sort of harassment, and suggested that a block or other administrative action might be appropriate. I would appreciate any input you might have. This really does strike me as being petty vindictiveness and rather juvenile conduct, and, unfortunately, it seems to me based on this edit rather possible that Hijiri88 might be thinking about getting around the i-ban in this way. Actually, in all honesty, this sort of behavior doesn't strike me as even being particular, well, sane. John Carter (talk) 20:25, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

I don't see that edit as being problematic so much as the response to it. As far as I can see, the challenged statement had not been edited by Catflap. Anyway, I have now edited the article to make the statement clearer. The sooner someone closes the AN discussion and an i-ban can be put in place the better it will be for all concerned. I am somewhat surprised that the i-ban has not yet been put in place. I can't do it because I'm involved. In the meantime the advice I would offer to both of them is to stop stoking the flames by responding to incidents, and to simply get on with editing the encyclopedia. If either of them feels a little stressed at the moment, then now would be a good time to take a Wiki-break. If things carry on and tempers get frayed, then either one or both of them could end up with more than an i-ban. SilkTork 22:07, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
SilkTork, would it be inappropriate for me as one of the proposed IBAN-subjects to post a request for closure of the thread? That an IBAN is a good thing appears to be universally agreed upon.
On an unrelated note: I liked this edit. My concern was appropriately addressed.
On an even less related note: Why did you not caution the above user for this sort of behavior doesn't strike me as even being particular, well, sane? Can I get an IBAN with this user as well, if PAs like the above continue?
On an even less related note: The user with whom I am soon to be subject to an IBAN doesn't appear to have ever stated on-wiki that Karlsruhe is his hometown: he said a little under an hour earlier that he "currently resides" there. This, combined with the fact that the edit in question was was made five days earlier, and during this time both users (and I) were fairly active in editing, but last night it suddenly became a big deal, is suspicious. Were these two exchanging emails about me in order to arrange for the one to complain about me to you while the other abides by the not-yet-in-place IBAN? Do they plan to continue this kind of off-wiki collusion once the IBAN prevents me from directly responding? Is John Carter going to continue to fight Catflap's battles for him when Catflap is technically not allowed?
This is very disturbing...
