 * There is no doubt about the sockpuppetry, so I have blocked the account. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 11:58, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
 * At present this case is filed under Wecreates, but I think it should be re-filed under a different master, probably Special:Contributions/Everymedia, or possibly Special:Contributions/Sekarnikhil. There have been four successive accounts which have attempted to use Wikipedia to advertise Karvy Group: first Special:Contributions/Everymedia, then Special:Contributions/Sekarnikhil, then Special:Contributions/Wecreates, and most recently Special:Contributions/Chirwani. The Everymedia account was run by a marketing agency, which advertised more than one business, including Karvy Group, before being blocked. The others have been single-purpose accounts advertising only Karvy Group, so they may have been in-house accounts for Karvy Group, rather than external agencies. There could be a case for treating Sekarnikhil as the master, but my inclination is to treat Everymedia as the master, with Sekarnikhil being a likely meatpuppet. Since you have posted to this page, perhaps you would like to deal with it, otherwise another clerk. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 11:58, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
