Suspected sockpuppets
Savalanni stopped editing on 13 October 2022 as he was hanging by a thin rope following an ANI report. Two days later, user:Equaform became suddenly active after a 3-4 month hiatus, and continued the same campaign aimed at "Iranian Azerbaijanifying" the girl in the Death of Hadis Najafi page, using the exact same Caspian post souce, that user:Savalanni originally added. - LouisAragon (talk) 13:31, 15 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your comments. What about meatpuppetry? The behavioural evidence is quite compelling IMO. - LouisAragon (talk) 13:59, 21 October 2022 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * They also overlap on Draft:Death of Asra Panahi, which was originally created by, deleted, then recreated by . But for all that, I don't think they're the same person.  Very different timecards.  One uses mobile, the other doesn't.  And a few other clues in their writing styles.  I'm not going to decline this outright, but I'd like another clerk/CU to look at it and make a call on whether it should be endorsed or not. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:14, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Concur with . Acknowledging the similarities noted in the report, I'm of the view that there's sufficient difference to suggest it is more likely that the accounts are operated by different users than the same. CU declined. --Jack Frost (talk) 09:44, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
 * The timing is suspicious, but the "Iranian Azerbaijanifying" seems to be a rather common POV to push rather than a niche one that's only likely to occur via meatpuppetry. Both accounts left alone, Death of Hadis Najafi pending changes protected for two months (not directly related but thought I'd note it). Closing. DatGuyTalkContribs 18:43, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
