Suspected sockpuppets
The suspected sockmaster tried desperately to publish a fan page on Salar Bilehsvarchian, also known as Salar Bil. On 20 September they were blocked from editing the relevant pages for their disruptive behaviour. On 21 September, the suspected sock appears and immediately tries to publish a draft on the master's favourite subject. It appears that the suspected sock was created to avoid the block on the master and, after the expiration of the block, to avoid scrutiny. Modussiccandi (talk) 08:16, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
Salarbil is part of a CU-confirmed pool (Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of Salarbil) focusing on Salar Bil (at various page-names), which is the same target as Arminzarei1234 and its pool (I can't tell if Roy Smith did CU on it). Requesting CU to see if this is all one pool (sock/meat to merge) or several separate pools (distinct SEO groups or such?) with same target, and presumably upgrade all involved to indef once we figure out which is the oldest DMacks (talk) 02:32, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

 * It's Salarbil is Arminzarei1234, but  is probably closer to the mark.  There's lots of proxies in use, but it's a country where proxy use is endemic and often legitimate.  I'd say to ignore the CU results and  -- RoySmith (talk) 23:35, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Nobody's picked this up, so I took another look. Salarbil is blocked and Arminzarei1234 hasn't edited in over a month, so there's no real value to investing any more effort here.  Closing.  We can always come back and take another look if things change. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:57, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
