– This SPI case is open.

Suspected sockpuppets

On Riz Ahmed, the Pakistani IP user 103.228.159.85 added {{Cleanup bare URLs}}, replaced {{Other people|Rizwan Ahmed}} with {{for|the Pakistani official|Rizwan Ahmed (bureaucrat)}}, and replaced "Riz Ahmed" with "Rizwan Ahmed". Rashid Ghafoor's previous sockpuppets such as Regent007 (talk · contribs) and Karjabhai (talk · contribs) edited the same article in the same way. Compare diff1, diff2, and diff3.

Furthermore, multiple Pakistani IPs edited Rizwan Ahmed (bureaucrat) in the same way, adding bare URL(s) and {{Cleanup bare URLs}} at the same time. Some of their edits have been already reverted by other users, but these IPs currently keep restoring the content. Compare diff4, diff5, diff6, diff7, diff8, diff9, diff10, diff11, diff12, diff13, diff14, diff15, diff16, diff17, diff18, diff19, diff20, and diff21.

I'm not sure if the article(s) should be semi-protected and if (range)blocks work in this case. Either way, I would like to require some sort of administrator action. 153.221.72.33 (talk) 06:38, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
