Obvious block evasion. Usual edits at Kaimla [1], except this time they've actually got sources. Wikishovel (talk) 08:59, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Obvious block evasion. SamarthMaratha7 created 16 August, first edits were 4 September, adding unsourced claims about Kaimla to a bio: [2], first logged out as 223.228.72.178, then logged in. Then, as ever, they moved on to Kaimla itself, adding unsourced claims about the same two people as last sock User:SamarthRor7, again first logged out as 223.228.72.178, then logged in.
Yesterday SamarthMaratha7 recreated Draft:Guru Brahmanand in main space, last created by blocked sock User:KaimlaCity. Today they recreated spammy Dhanda Nyoliwala, last created by blocked sock User:Pirate dzns. Wikishovel (talk) 09:36, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

- This is definitely a sockpuppet of previous sockpuppets but I don't think they can be traced back to User:Michaellko any more. I don't think their interests are the same. I know once they are found to be socks, it doesn't really matter but looking into this, their focus on all things related to Kaimla seems different from Michaellko. Liz Read!

- User:Pirate dzns was originally a separate SPI that got merged into Michaellko. The merge was surprising at the time, for the reasons you point out. Wikishovel (talk) 21:36, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- They're now onto disruptive categories, so if this could be confirmed, G5 will save us a lot of time. Star Mississippi 13:31, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
- The edits are a problem, regardless of who they are. Blocked. Mass delete can happen if it's a G5, but we don't need more to clean up. Star Mississippi 01:08, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
