 * - There are pretty clear grounds for suspicion, but the single suspect edit by Quitenot is not enough to go on by itself. Please check to confirm. Sir Sputnik (talk) 03:11, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

Lol I just happened to see the page and the talk. Very nice of you to label one edit as edit-warring. This is clearly unwarranted as Wikipedia itself provides a/c creating options for discussion and editing. Not agreeing with you is not a basis of being a sockpuppet.

 * Admins can check the originating IP of the accounts. If needed, required proof of device ID can be given by email or otherwise, if the admins can not already see it. Also, I would again reitrate my comment above. Since the edit is just a revert, it would of course be similar. About continuing "edit war" (a very fancy term for reverting an edit), the accuser accuses me of not honouring consensus, when the conflicting edit was itself the point of differing consensus. You can check the talk page for more on it. Indix22019 (talk) 05:29, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  07:59, 24 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Abh9850 and Quitenot were found unlikely after the April 17th edit, but subsequently blocked (1 week and indef) after continuing that edit war and one other on April 20th. Neither user appealed that block, and the tag team behavior was very obvious. So now this new account shows up and continues an edit war at Brahmi script. Seems pretty likely.

 * - Please, compare those two accounts.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  11:34, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

 * The number of coincidences required to explain this away are too great, both from the behavioral evidence in this specific case and in the master's history per ST47. Notwithstanding CU results,, closing. Kevin ( aka L235 ·&#32; t ·&#32; c) 01:47, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
