The user was registered last month and created Nivedita Chandel under Nivedita Chandel (actress). The article was last created by their sock. GSS &#x202F;&#128172; 06:30, 13 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Good finding, Ak56R created कुमार अभिषेक in hiwiki where user and  were removing the deletion tag just like they were doing at Kumar Abhishek. Also, please note that Ak56R has accepted their connection with Greatkat786 and Ak9998  with a comment that "we use the public internet which could be the reason for this misunderstanding, please forgive us, and we will not repeat such mistakes in future" (diff).

 * This editor's version of the article looks very different from the last sock's version. As with last time, this could very well be UPE, but I don't think it's Abishek shannu. I note that hiwiki has blocked Ak56r for what might be sockpuppetry (Google Translate wasn't particularly helpful), but I can't figure out who the master is. Closing without action. See below.

 * - After some more quality time with Google Translate, I think I've figured out who hiwiki thinks the master is. CU - could you please compare Ak56R to Sockpuppet investigations/Greatgroot? I am basing this off of some very rough translating of w:hi:विकिपीडिया:प्रबन्धक_सूचनापट/पुरालेख_४, which references our Greatgroot SPI. I'll take care of the case move if it turns out to be them.

 * Blocked Ak56R based on Ivanvector's findings above, Ak9998 on their hiwiki admission, and Divya786 on behavioral overlap with Ak56R. GeneralNotability (talk) 14:41, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

 * ,, will semi those pages shortly. Since it's a brand-new account I don't think a sleeper check is worthwhile at this point, otherwise would have requested CU. GeneralNotability (talk) 17:57, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
 * And by "semi" I apparently mean "act on the CSD request." GeneralNotability (talk) 17:59, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
