 * BuntyPathak is older account, the case should be moved to his name.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  10:48, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I've done it. . Those two are obviously the same person, but their edits do not overlap. BuntyPathak stopped editing before Bunty9563286328 was created. I see no WP:ILLEGITimate use of multiple accounts.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  10:55, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Why? Sachin vg has no edits.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  19:36, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
 * BuntyPathak was making a bunch of edits in his sandbox, then Sachin vg was created and BuntyPathak welcomed him two minutes later. This tells me he created the account to welcome him as part of his testing around Wikipedia (which is not, by itself, that much of a problem). However, this means he very likely has control over and that account should be blocked if it ever starts being used to evade his main account's block. ☺ ·   Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  19:43, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
