Suspected sockpuppets

In Bangladesh genocide, sock User:Ayubist changed "Bengali Hindus" to "Bengalis" in the lead, [1], Wiki.arfazhxss does the same [2] and engages in edit wars over it. Ultimately reverts the article back to this which is simply a restoration of this revision by User:AlbaniaeDominus, another sock of this master. (compare the two edits [3])

Wiki.arfazhxss account was created very recently (November 25) but editing with a great deal of familiarity with editing tools. Most of his edits are automated and he has quickly reached over 500 edits, needless to say to expedite extended confirmed status to edit these articles. Moreover, here, Wiki.arfazhxss mentions that Aman.kumar.goel "has consistently removed/ reverted/ deleted my contributions" although the two have never interacted with each other before. Rather Ayubist and his other socks have had a number of interactions with Aman.kumar.goel with opposing POVs.

Based on behavioral evidence, looks very much like a duck. There could be sleeper accounts as well. LucrativeOffer (talk) 15:29, 10 December 2023 (UTC) LucrativeOffer (talk) 15:29, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
