 * The technical data says ; they're on the same IP range. They both say they're interested in Indian politics, and they're both in the same city, so a large overlap in editing interests is not surprising.  As for the image on their user pages, who knows.  Anyway, I left them both uw-agf-sock and we'll see how things progress. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:28, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

In addition to evidence from the previous SPI report, which resulted in a "Possible" CU finding and a uw-agf-sock message that was not acknowledged by either editor... today Asrtyon showed up to Sikh Empire and Ranjit Singh to re-add content almost immediately after Arthemiticoioi's edits were reverted.

 * CU data generated since the last result provides a stronger link between the accounts. I would call this stronger link . Different devices, but only accounts on the same /64. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 13:24, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I've been watching these guys for a while; a little bit of WP:AGF, but mostly WP:ROPE. The biggest clue I saw was when one of them cleaned up the other one's user page and then refused to answer my question about that.  Blocking as proven. -- RoySmith (talk) 19:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

I discovered this another sock who needs to be checked. Same interests and same name as Arthemiticoioi. Srijanx22 (talk) 16:29, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

 * For future reference, once a case has been closed, it's best to file a new report. It just makes the processing go easier.  I'll just reopen this one, so don't worry about it this time. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:41, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Restored almost fully the same content (except the header) like the confirmed sockpuppet.

Also the same editing area.

User:LocalsEdit reinstated the exact same edit- that CU blocked sock Arthemiticoioi tried to add to the Mughal Empire article. - LouisAragon (talk) 16:49, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Note, if it's a match, Skvrniak would be the oldest account. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:31, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I see what means about these two being technically indistinguishable, but the IP range is busy enough for me to AGF that they might be someone else using the same kind of device. All the other socks have been interested in certain types of political articles; one of these hasn't edited at all, the other has just done some newb-style test edits, and created a draft about something cultural - they don't look like socks to me. Closing without further action, come back either of these get interested in 'legislative assembly election'-type articles.   Girth Summit  (blether)  14:44, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
