 * Group 1 ✅:


 * Group 2 ✅:


 * Group 1 and 2 have shared the same IP but on different devices. Their edits seem to not overlap, which is why I'm going with technically indistinguishable. . Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 01:38, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Further checks have revealed Group 1 also includes:


 * Another group (Group 3) using same IP as accounts in Group 1 and the same device as accounts in Group 2:

 * If the case is moved, there is a cuwiki page to be moved too. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 02:02, 24 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Moved case to oldest account. - please indef all unblocked accounts. They are clearly related to each other based on the usernames and editing interests (low quality, unexplained edits to articles on Asian and Indian topics). Thanks, Spicy (talk) 15:03, 25 December 2022 (UTC)

Bear with me: User:Xengwanang was CU-blocked by, but I don't know who the master is or was. Fun fact: look at their edit summaries on Putian people: they are the same as the edit summaries by the nest of socks I just blocked. I'm filing this because maybe someone knows who the master is, and can tag accordingly. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 17:27, 16 February 2024 (UTC) Drmies (talk) 17:27, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
 * just pointed me to this one, Sockpuppet investigations/Apeexterminator/Archive, and I think this might well be a match. Drmies (talk) 18:23, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

My check reason points towards Sockpuppet investigations/Bangelqapratashitti - though being 2 years ago, I would suspect the result was that it was related, but ofc I can't confirm. -- Amanda (she/her)  16:30, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
 * - Flagging this for Clerk attention, it seems like it needs to be merged. The Wordsmith Talk to me 01:09, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Merged both cases, retagged, closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 14:09, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
