Requesting a CU because I'm not entirely sure if this is a case of socking, WP:MEAT, or simply two different editors being paid try to create articles on the same people. On November 7, Athaenara speedy deleted Draft:Katrin Klimova and Draft:Ksenia Svarovskikh under WP:G11. Within the same month, promotional articles on both were recreated at  Ksenia Svarovski & Katrin Klimova. Олег Черкасский has denied UPE and COI, but even in the denial they mentioned that they are employed by an organization that they have created an article on.

 * Checkuser evidence:
 * . The accounts are from different countries and through different user agents.


 * Behavioral evidence:
 * The two accounts did create articles on the same article subjects ( with Draft:Katrin Klimova and Draft:Ksenia Svarovskikh, and with Katrin Klimova and Ksenia Svarovski). The content on those pages aren't a match, but the overall page format is similar. In itself, it's not enough evidence for me to block on this behavior alone. I'd need to see further evidence before I'd assert with a reasonable amount of certainty that these two users are sock puppets. Meat puppetry is possible, though (again) I'd need to see more evidence first.
