I came across these accounts all voting on very flimsy grounds to keep at this AFD Articles for deletion/Tuan Le (Computer Scientist). GanapathyONDABEAT created the article in question on 22 June as their first edit and has only contributed to this article []. The IP then edited in support on the AFD on 22 June as their only edit. []. HayastanRepublicanGuard (user started editing on 22 June) then chimed in with a similar support [] Their only contributions are related to this article. []. Glitch glitch11 account started editing on June 22 and has apart from one edit concentrated their edits on this article. []. My suspicion given the way the keeps have been given is that there is at least meatpuppetry and the real possibility of sockpuppetry going on to try to votestack to "save" the article.

 * Per behavioural evidence and CU, I have the master and Glitch. I'm assuming Hayastan's CU result of "possible" is due to similar geodata but different technical data, which leads to the conclusion it is likely a meatpuppet, which (per policy) can be handled the same as socks, so I've also  it. I'm not blocking the IP because it's been used only once five days ago, which isn't a lot of evidence to go on, and there's no indication it will be used again. I will cleanup the AfD as appropriate. ☺ ·   Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  01:44, 27 June 2015 (UTC)
