Suspected sockpuppets

[edit]

All users has repeatedly created Raju Dangal (Draft:Raju Dangal) and after Randykitty protected the title from creation user Saurav Lamshal recreated it using a different title Raju Dangal (singer) back in 2015 which is currently on AfD. User Harryraju's last edit anywhere on Wikipedia was in December 2016 and also having the similar username as the master resurfaced after a long time only to remove AfD template from Amjad Alsaboory and Raju Dangal (singer), both articles were created by Saurav Lamshal. Harryraju also recreated Editor Rani Alsaboory (I'm unable to check who created Rani Alsaboory earlier) which is an exact copy of Saurav Lamshal's article Amjad Alsaboory and their style of editing is very similar as well.

Gendelafrog was registered a week ago (the same day user Harryraju removed the afd template) and his first edit was to create his own user page with Just come back to Wikipedia editing after a break of 6 years as my previous account has been disabled due to inactive mode. The user also removed the AfD template from Amjad Alsaboory exactly same as Harryraju (including notability template) [1][2]. I strongly doubt this is a group of undisclosed paid editors.

  •  Behavioural evidence needs evaluation for InclusiveIndian and Piushtrivedi..
  • These are large, very active ranges and I looked hard, but I don't see any more sleepers. Katietalk 23:04, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm unable to distinguish between Harryraju and Gendelafrog: behaviourally they are a match (see the deleted history of Montana Montana Montana for an example), and so at the moment I am declining to create a separate case for the confirmed accounts. And despite the technical evidence, I see no reason to connect InclusiveIndian and Piushtrivedi neither with each other nor with this case, nor with a couple other cases they reminded me of, so I am leaving those two accounts alone.

Attempts to create Draft:Amjad Alsaboory which was attempted by one of the earlier sockpuppets. Also on his user page he claims that he is 'fully new' to Wikipedia (LOL). Began editing within days of the last SPI investigation ending. Jupitus Smart 18:22, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

See history of deleted article Montana Montana Montana. Article was created by Macbookpro925 (talk · contribs) and speedied, later recreated by 911Macbookpro (talk · contribs) and then heavily built out by Maclafornia925, patrolled by a sock from another farm, then deleted again. It was recreated in April by Greywolf9255 (talk · contribs) who after it was deleted yet again asked for an emailed copy, which was used by Kalamya (talk · contribs) to recreate the page verbatim in their sandbox a month later. Requesting CU for Maclafornia925 which should indicate how to proceed with the others. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 12:57, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Newly registered user recreated Amjad Alsaboory appears to be a copy of the deleted version. GSS (talk|c|em) 06:05, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First edit was to create their sandbox about Raju Adhikari (film director) and then moved it to mainspace under Raju Adhikari (director). Filmkath also moved Draft:Achyut Bajagain which was created by "Dekha 4042" and removed AfD notice from Satyam Rana which was created by "BAJAGAIN 4042". All users are editing in the same area and creating the same kind of articles. GSS (talk|c|em) 09:15, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely not my "Boot" (bot?). The account was registered in October 2019 and returned today only to post Draft:Amjad Alsaboory. GSS💬 18:15, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
