I've blocked all four, linking this page in the summaries as well as posting links to this page on their talk pages, because they were all involved in creating and re-creating the same spam. – Athaenara ✉  20:55, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

 * The users have very similar editing patterns and User:Damithmadhusanka101 said that it was about them in an edit to the MFD as well as User:Saduniiiiiii. They seem to be cooperative and actually want it deleted. I asked the supposed sockpuppeteer on their Damithmadhusanka101 account if they could log into the other accounts and admit he controlled them. If they do as such, hopefully we can get this mess cleaned up faster, if they don't, then that just means a checkuser will have to step in and confirm/deny it.  ☢️Plutonical☢️  ᶜᵒᵐᵐᵘⁿᶦᶜᵃᵗᶦᵒⁿˢ  18:05, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * (directed to Bbb23) If you think I'm handling this situation wrong or trying to control it, I will gladly step out of it to avoid causing any problems. ☢️Plutonical☢️  ᶜᵒᵐᵐᵘⁿᶦᶜᵃᵗᶦᵒⁿˢ  22:53, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

Plutonical, a relatively inexperienced user with a problematic history, is attempting to control what happens here, at the MFD, and having a disturbing discussion at Damithmadhusanka101's Talk page. If a checkuser concludes that these accounts are socks, last time I looked socks do not get to decide what gets deleted and how, regardless of whether they claim to be the subject.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:22, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I neglected to point out that at the same time as Damithmadhusanka101 was trying to get the draft deleted, they also created a sandbox with another version of the biography. Finally, if there is a finding of socking connected to the master, then the draft can be deleted per WP:G5.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:26, 26 May 2022 (UTC)


 * ✅ that the following accounts belong to each other:


 * All accounts now blocked. - Mailer Diablo 01:43, 27 May 2022 (UTC)


 * - This needs to be moved to the oldest account. Saduniiiiiii needs to be indeffed, and tagging is needed. Please double-check that I didn't miss anything. Bbb23 (talk) 02:05, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Damithmusic is a zero-edit sleeper – I think those tend to make for suboptimal case namesakes (plus Damithmadhusanka is the second-oldest account), so I'm going to leave the case here. Indeffed Saduniiiiiii, (re-) everyone, closing. --Blablubbs (talk) 09:54, 27 May 2022 (UTC)

Only edit has been to create Draft:Damith Madhusanka with a similar promotional tone as before. Curbon7 (talk) 13:08, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
