Suspected sockpuppets
Similar names, all making the same self-promotional edits (see also deleted contributions, including Gagan bhullar). I initially thought there was one, saw that found another, so I think a CheckUser is needed to see what other accounts are out there. Singularity42 (talk) 16:47, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Gaganbhullarsingh & Thegaganbhullar are obviously the same person. Gaganbhullar1 has made no edits, but on the basis of the username I think we can take it that that's the same person too. I'm not sure that the way the accounts have been used constitutes abuse of multiple accounts in terms of the sockpuppetry policy, but it doesn't actually make any difference, because I've blocked them all as not here to contribute to the encyclopaedia anyway. I'll leave it to a clerk to decide whether a CU is needed. JBW (talk) 19:29, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Thegaganbhullar, Gaganbhullar1, and Roohstartv are ✅ to each other, but I don't have anything tying them back to Gaganbhullarsingh, so I'll just tag them all as suspected. I also noticed  who are ✅ to each other and  to the first group.  . -- RoySmith (talk) 02:22, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't think Ervikrambhupesh/Viki1951 are related to this group. Closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 15:20, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

...and back with a new IP. Same edit as other accounts to self-promote. Maybe a range block is needed? Singularity42 (talk) 21:02, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

 * The range has been partially blocked for a while, which should hopefully deal with the disruption. Closing. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 22:59, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
