 * I noticed that votes for posts are intentionally growing. Use of a proxy is possible.
   How to remove from the base votes for the post in the right amount. Previously,
   it was possible to fix the number of votes in the database. By wrong voices, 
   I mean voices not from Russia according to the GeoIP.
 * People cheat on the voting system. People cheat on the voting system. How to 
   reduce fraudulent voices?
 * Can I edit likes or reset likes on post edit page?

 * Found a temporary solution. Directly created a database query and changed the
   status of only the selected IP addresses.
 *     ```
       UPDATE <dbname>.wp_ulike
       SET status='unlike'
       WHERE ip IN ('171.6.242.183',...etc.100+ IP's);
       ```

 * [@loenz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loenz/) This problem has been occurred
   in the recent update due to object cache. We are creating a new algorithm for
   get user status that is almost finished and a new version will be released soon.
