Jacobjohn1998 created the page Sarawagi Group. This was then expanded by Devansh1310 until that account was blocked for copyright violation. During the middle of Devansh1310's edits to that page is a series of edits by Lucas.alavapena, which from the timing alone seems very obviously to be the same person at work. – Fayenatic  L ondon 20:36, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

. The accounts were all created the same day, and with the exception of the master, edited only on that day. They are obviously editing together, sometimes quite close together. I'm endorsing a CU to rule out meat puppetry.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:05, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
 * While they edit from the same major city (according to Geolocation which i'm not a 100% on), I feel like the data only leads to a result. --  DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  03:08, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I strongly suspect meat puppetry, possibly individuals who all work for the company or are affiliated with the company in some fashion. Although it's within the purview of SPI to block meat puppets, given the fact that the two unblocked accounts are stalish, I'm not going to take any action.--Bbb23 (talk) 05:40, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
