After the sock User:Gargabookofayr was blocked, this user was created. The edit patterns are the same for all the three. Shovon (talk) 12:01, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Sorry, I had missed putting this page on my watchlist and hence the delay in responding. All the three users have edited *only* Australia and India related articles. Their edit patterns as well as edit summaries are almost the same. Although, User:Luke193 has not made any edits that can be termed as Vandalism, but his userpage gave me a feeling that the same banned user is back in a new avatar. May be a Checkuser can clarify this. And if my suspicions are proven wrong, my apologies in advance, to the user for not assuming enough good faith. Thanks.

I think is a duck. For reference, Gargabook has created a sock before Gargabookofayr (talk · contribs) to evade their block. The topics that they are editing are similar. If you look at all three accounts, all edit topics that relate to Australia and India. All three accounts also edit pages relating to news broadcasting. Finally all three accounts edit pages relating to games, such as the Olympics. Elockid (Alternate) (Talk) 16:43, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
