Terilica has been the main editor of Draft:Gaphor. Then another sock popped up and created Gaphor and has been blocked. This is likely to be all the same sock farm. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:31, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

This doesn't look anything like Zaid Zayd's pattern of editing. What makes you think so? Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 19:45, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * User:Curb Safe Charmer - Same client, and history of conflict of interest editing. But I see that Checkuser says they are unrelated, which doesn't mean they aren't being paid by the same client.  Robert McClenon (talk) 19:53, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Zaid is a 13-year-old boy. They write about themselves and their dad, films and cricket. I don't think I've seen any indication of paid editing? Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 19:55, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * @Curb Safe Charmer It appeers from the 12 April just archived that there is potential that they have branched out. Unless Muhammad Ali Subhani /Champ Imi is their dad  Fiddle   Faddle  20:02, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Actually, I went into some of these deleted articles for Muhammad Ali Subhani/Champ Imi, looked at a BBC video that was cited and apparently this guy actually is a high profile model at least based on the print & commercial coverage the BBC Urdu YouTube channel showed. Most of these young "models" are just teenagers with an iPhone and an Instagram account but this guy has done a lot of actual work. My gut feeling though is that Muhammad Ali Subhani is not the sockpuppeteer, someone is writing these articles on his behalf, either paid editing or done by a fan. Liz Read!

 * @Liz An important question, and one @RoySmith is contemplating in the report just prior to this one, is who the sockmaster is, and whether we might have more than one in what is appearing to be becoming a complex nest of vipers. Fiddle   Faddle  07:52, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
 * No, Zaid has referenced in their repeated articles about Mahmood-ul-Hassan that he is Zaid's father. See this reference. I continue to believe this report shouldn't be tied to the current sockmaster. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 14:01, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * @Curb Safe Charmer No difficulty with that. Fiddle   Faddle  16:02, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * ❌ as far as checkuser evidence goes...  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   19:44, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Terilica is definitely not Zaid Zayd based on the technical data; it appears instead that Zaid Zayd is publishing random drafts into mainspace. I ran a follow-up check, and I discovered that Terilica is ✅ to . In this edit, Terilica claimed to be a different person from Cbryeaw, but this does not accord with the CU data, and in my view, this is a violation of the sockpuppetry policy. . Please split this case into a new case at Sockpuppet investigations/Cbryeaw. Thanks, Mz7 (talk) 06:19, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Moved from Zaid Zayd. Cabayi (talk) 09:20, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
