See the log for Draft:David Biga, Davidbiga created this draft which was deleted as G11 and G12 and the user was blocked for advertising/promotion, NMG Novelist creates the draft again, and is blocked as a username violation. DavidBiga (which appears to be a sleeper) has now recreated this draft and has moved it into mainspace. David Biga appears to be largely the same as the previously deleted draft per [this] mirror. I suspect this user has also edited logged out on this article. Dylsss(talk &bull;&#32;contribs) 17:08, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

 * - use of sleepers. The oldest account, DavidBiga, was created in 2012. Its first edit was 23:36, 22 October 2020. was created after  and Davidbiga was blocked years before DavidBiga edited. Since sleepers have been used, a CU check might be able to find some more. It would also be useful to see if Nmgwikiteam is technically related/confirmed to DavidBiga because as it stands, my behavioral assessment of the situation is that DavidBiga/Davidbiga and Nmgwikiteam/NMG Novelist might separate groups (my thinking is that the second group is a PR company editing separately from the other group). If they separate are then Nmgwikiteam might only need a soft block (as NMG Novelist was softblocked). If they are all connected, then all need hard blocks.

 * Actually, on further review it looks like that NMG Novelist was working with DavidBiga as the content of the draft and article was similar. I had missed the similarities in the deleted draft by NMG Novelist and the now deleted article by DavidBiga, because I didn't check who had created the draft which was copied to everybodywiki. I'm going to block both NMG Novelist and Nmgwikiteam, as they are either sockpuppets or meatpuppets. Still endorsing CU for a sleeper check.

 * Based on behavioral evidence, I think both IPs and DavidBiga are the same user as Davidbiga, so I've blocked DavidBiga indef and the IPs for 2 weeks. Tagged DavidBiga and Davidbiga. Waiting on CU to deal with NMG Novelist and Nmgwikiteam. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 17:51, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
