Sajaggupta97 created Indiabulls Housing Finance Company while Gautam Handa's Indiabulls Housing Finance Ltd is pending another speedy deletion. The sockmaster may be User:Sachinshelar486, creator of the original article depending how you interpret their relationship. Sachinshelar486 & Gautam Handa were given an agf-sock caution earlier today. Cabayi (talk) 16:26, 9 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Gautam Handa has now recreated the article using Sajaggupta97's title, Indiabulls Housing Finance Company. Quack! Cabayi (talk) 07:30, 10 February 2017 (UTC)


 * And an IP (125.99.53.226) has joined the gang with Draft:Indiabulls Housing Finance Company. Cabayi (talk) 08:45, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

 * - I can't see the version Sajaggupta97 created. Please compare the pages the two created and block the accounts if they appear sufficiently similar. Sadly, Sachinshelar486 looks too old. Thanks, GABgab 15:33, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
 * The most recent incarnations of the articles are all basically the same. IP editor blocked one week.  Both registered accounts indefinitely blocked for spamming and sock puppetry.  The older articles created by Sachinshelar486 are different, but this is definitely too fishy for a short block.  I suspect there's a sock farm or undisclosed paid editing hidden here somewhere.

 * - Please compare the deleted draft to past iterations. Thanks, GABgab 23:57, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
 * GeneralizationsAreBad - The two deleted pages between the accused master and puppet are definitely of the same company, but the text and content is different enough to where I don't see a blatant or obvious connection between the two accounts.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   00:02, 22 February 2017 (UTC)


 * In that case, closing for now. GABgab 00:11, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
