 * CU results:
 * Group 1: Hcsrctu and Madaraobitoitachipain are ✅ to each other.
 * Group 2: Indica123 and Adhinayaka are ✅ to each other.
 * Groups 1 and 2 are to each other. आभीरवाटक and HinduKshatrana are  to the two groups.
 * Thehistorybro and Arun singh Yaduvanshi are.
 * My summation is that this is either meatpuppetry or a user with access to a range of devices. I'll leave someone to decide what needs to happen here re blocks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Callanecc (talk • contribs) 07:20, 12 July 2024 (UTC)


 * I blocked the four accounts confirmed by CU, without tags for now, and am evaluating the rest. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:43, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
