Brandon Lapin, JanaSanchezTX and Bicjic coordinated very tightly to edit the same articles around the same dates:

Zanirali created a draft for Michelle Beckley at User:Zanirali/sandbox which was then created with the same content by JanaSanchezTX.

The same kind of coordination with EmmadelaFuenteFW and RuthieNewJersey at Draft:Wendy Sachs. MarioGom (talk) 01:22, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also of interest about Bicjic and Brandon Lapin: File:Jana Lynne Sanchez.jpg and File:Jana close up DC.jpg. MarioGom (talk) 09:48, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Based on overlap alone ([1]), I'm fairly confident that all of these accounts are related in some way – edit summaries and other patterns imply that we're probably dealing with more than one human operator though, so CheckUser requested and endorsed by clerk please compare these accounts to each other and look for sleepers (and potentially older masters); I think we might be looking at a known farm here.

Thanks Oshwah; given the very substantial similarities between Zanirali's sandbox and JanaSanchez' initial version of Michelle Beckley, I'm convinced they're part of this group. Looking at the history of Draft:Wendy Sachs, I'm pretty certain that RuthieNewJersey is also related to this group in some way (my guess is a different COI editor working to promote the same person), but there isn't enough here to prove it. Awaiting administrative action – please block all confirmed accounts, plus Zanirali. Thanks and best, Blablubbs|talk 22:26, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
