Master has tried several times, at several places, to create an article about Rhapsody, The Annual Social of Calcutta Medical College. (See Draft:Rhapsody ( Annual Social of Medical College, Kolkata), RHAPSODY( Annual social of MEDICAL COLLEGE, KOLKATA), .) When the current incarnation (Rhapsody, The Annual Social of Calcutta Medical College) was tagged for speedy deletion, the socks showed up with the sole purpose of removing the deletion tags and arguing for the article's existence. Clearly either sock puppetry or meat puppetry. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:58, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Added DipamoyB, who has changed the article at RHAPSODY( Annual social of MEDICAL COLLEGE, KOLKATA) (originally created by the master and later changed to a redirect) back to a full article with language identical to prior deleted versions. Also, DipamoyB's argument at Articles for deletion/RHAPSODY( Annual social of MEDICAL COLLEGE , KOLKATA) exactly mirrors language used by the master and other socks regarding the deletion of this article.

 * Respected sir, I have no multiple accounts.. The persons who are editing are not familiar to me.. U might search and find out


 * I am also a part of this culture. I believe this page tells people about the culture. Thus it should not be deleted — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mallika Roy (talk • contribs) 14:11, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment----This is most likely recruitment--Well, I failed to get your question!(SPI often and can deal with meat-puppets too:)) And, a customary glance on the contributions page of the new set of users is enough to block the entire set for meat-puppetry.These accounts are most likely students of the institution, canvassed off-wiki, by the initiator( who self-admittedly is a student of the institution), trying their best to save the article obviously oblivious to the fact that discussions are not votes.Godric on Leave (talk) 09:05, 20 August 2017 (UTC)

 * and are ✅ and ✅ to the  account. It could be WP:MEAT, but it's clear they're violating WP:SOCK.  and  are editing from the same city and are more likely to be WP:MEAT as opposed to socks.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  21:24, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

 * - I checked three accounts of your new list, and they all came from the same city, but different technical information. This is most likely recruitment, and i'm not willing to look at it without more evidence that the users are the same. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 22:04, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
 * The point is that CU is unnecessary usually to distinguish meatpuppetry, though that may not actually be the case here. In this case, coming from the same city is strong technical evidence of meatpuppetry. Amanda is rather busy at the moment, so I'm going to seek the opinion of another CheckUser on whether it's permissible to use CU evidence to determine merely whether the edits are coming from the same city to support a finding of meatpuppetry. ~ Rob 13 Talk 02:59, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
 * And it's a no again. I'm going to decline to block for now and let the AfD closer handle it. The SPAs will go away when the discussion closes. ~ Rob 13 Talk 03:09, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
