The history of National Service Scheme 470 Mannar at wikidata shows a link to User:Akhilgkrishnanmnr already blocked as a sock of Gekay job solutions. The article is also linked to his vanity wikidata d:Q20884169. Quack! The user already has a softblock, needs an upgrade & tag. Any idea how we block & clean up after socks at wikidata?

Follows the pattern of this user's other sockpuppets of solely making editsrelated to Akhil G. Krishnan (for instance, a request he made last month for help in recreating the deleted article about Akhil G. Krishnan) SecretName101 (talk) 10:06, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

In the only contribution he has made thus far, he openly identified self as Akhil G. Krishnan and requested an article be made about his company, very clearly evidence that this was the same individual. SecretName101 (talk) 10:13, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

In the only active contribution he has made thus far, he openly identified self as Akhil G. Krishnan and requested an article be made about his company, very clearly evidence that this was the same individual. He also (according to his talk page) made unconstructive edits to National Service Scheme 470 Mannar, another page this user and his sock puppets have frequently attempted to create.

Follows same pattern of making edits only in articles relating to the sock puppeteer's self (Akhil G. Krishna) SecretName101 (talk) 10:22, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

 * The sockpuppeteer has made no real attempt to disguise the fact that this is a sockpuppet, having told us various things about himself (e.g. his name, date of birth, etc etc) which agree exactly with what previous accounts said.
