I first noticed the newest user, Tay.hiba05, whose username is very similar to Shipa.l9 and who intersected on the same article. Then probing more deeply into Shipa.l9, who has far more edits to look at, I noticed the master Tana785yr, and there the article intersection was very large. They also share a lack of edit summaries. And, in addition to the live article and draft intersection, as shown by the analyzer, they intersected on deleted pages as well, e.g., Draft:Priyanka Chahar Choudhary. While looking, I noticed a few other possibilities, but I haven't included them either because they are stale or because there was insufficient evidence. I am requesting a check for confirmation and if behavior matches technical to look for others. Bbb23 (talk) 23:57, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

Heavy overlap with Shilpa.I9 edits [1], especially Bigg Boss - Malayalam articles, and on Priyanka Chahar Choudhary. See the history of Draft:Priyanka Chahar Choudhary, and the prior history of deleted draft Draft:Priyanka Choudhary which Shilpa heavily edited. As with Shilpa, the IP is a fairly high-volume editor on specific articles. They've made a very similar edit on Gathbandhan as Shilpa to promote Priyanka Choudhary - see [2] vs [3]. This IP seems to have stuck for a while, but semi-protection of the draft and the most common targets may be in order. Ravensfire (talk) 17:28, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
- Added B891212 as they created this new draft suddenly after not editing for over a year. Ravensfire (talk) 17:30, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
- Also see the edit history of Keerthi Bhat - [4]. Pretty much all Shilpa and IP's from 47.201.x.x doing the editing there. Ravensfire (talk) 19:48, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

[edit]- Hmm. Well, Shipa.l9 is still socking, currently as Anju78io (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki), whom I will block. B891212 is, as far as I can detect, a different person, so I will leave them alone for now. Girth Summit (blether) 19:55, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
