Suspected sockpuppets
ILAnhisM's original user name was Jamestop9 (see also this version of their User page). On Commons they uploaded several photos of Draft:Bahari Ibaadat. They were blocked here on August 26. Fanofwikii created their account on October 15, created the draft using one of the uploaded photos and at User:Fanofwikii/sandbox states their name is James. There has also been IP activity on the draft and at WP:Articles for deletion/Bahari Ibaadat (2nd nomination) along with Fanofwikii (trying to remove the close decision). also noted WP:LOUTSOCK in one of ILAnhisM's unblock requests.

 * Adding another IP, 174.0.168.247, who just blanked the draft. S0091 (talk) 18:36, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @Yamla what do think about semi-protecting the draft title for a short time, a week maybe? They wanted the draft deleted I suspect to WP:GAME to rid it of the decline/reject history (which they removed a couple times). Working with AfC I see editors do that occasion where they request db7 on a draft that's been declined several times and/or rejected only to recreate it.  Either way, thanks for taking a look this one.  S0091 (talk) 19:12, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Draft:Bahari Ibaadat specifically? I don't think it's necessary, I've added that one to my watchlist. :) --Yamla (talk) 19:34, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @Yamla yep, that draft but yeah, understand and it's on my watchlist too of course. :) S0091 (talk) 20:02, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

SPA created two hours ago. First edit was an attempted blanking of WP:Articles for deletion/Bahari Ibaadat. Subsequent four edits were removal of db-repost tag at Bahari Ibaadat, minutes after creation by master:, , ,. Wikishovel (talk) 08:32, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Response by to multiple accounts warning at user talk was to blank it:  Wikishovel (talk) 09:42, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

Adding stale account from 2016 User:Haroonazizi, SPA for same bio, and also a fan of blanking the AFD:,. If behaviour is confirmed, then that would be the correct master. Wikishovel (talk) 09:37, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * I moved this case here from Sockpuppet investigations/Preciousbla.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  23:22, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I've received an email from Preciousbla on 15 Nov 2023 19:56:59 asking for the article to be restored and as "Legal Representative for Bahari Ibaadat". 0x Deadbeef →∞ (talk to me) 02:33, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Similar request at 2023111510009748. Cabayi (talk) 10:31, 16 November 2023 (UTC)


 * I didn't see anything interesting from checks today for the new accounts, besides failed attempts to access the account. Worth keeping an eye on that probably but for now I don't see further action necessary. Izno (talk) 09:01, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

SPA created 17 November, after. First edit summary, after bluing their user and talk pages, was "Stop removing we are working on the article" at Miss Afghanistan, and repeated attempts at re-adding salted Bahari Ibaadat to that set index. After removing user talk warnings from two efforts about this, and complaining about reverts of anon edits , they tried again:. After a failed undeletion request (again using "we"), they're now hassling User:Liz to undelete, and trying to request undeletion at the first AFD, which blocked sock User:Rafiwikiii had previously attempted to blank, after an earlier attempt to blank it anonymously.
