This is all in regards to persistent hoax content about a supposed Grammy-award-winning singer and record executive named Belle Nuru/Isabelle Nuru/Isabelle Nuru Dayne. Iknowallsecrets created Belle Nuru which was later deleted at AfD. Manaphysea created Isabelle Nuru which was also deleted at AfD. (I left plenty of details about why this is a hoax in that second AfD.) Both articles were then salted and Manaphysea was blocked as NOTHERE. Shallownotthou connects the two accounts: that account edited for about a week, notably to vote keep in the AfD at Iknowallsecrets's Belle Nuru article and comment "Feel free to engage here." on their own Talk page. Manaphysea used similar language, commenting "I would love to engage in discussions here." on their own Talk page. Now we get to the current user Mrsdebesq, who has added unsourced and poorly-sourced claims about Nuru to Taylor Dayne 123 times now. Mrsdebesq also likes to hyphenate "singer-songwriter" like Manaphysea (Mrsdebesq 1Mrsdebesq 2Manaphysea 1). There are literally no reliable sources covering this hoax person, so only someone involved in the hoax—a sockpuppet or meatpuppet—would know about it and keep pushing it here on Wikipedia.

 * All accounts . Manaphysea was already blocked for WP:NOTHERE (related to this no doubt) so they are also evading that block. Closing. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:37, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

This is an LTA hoaxer who keeps mentioning and creating articles about a supposed singer and record executive. This time User:Loveoldies1990 created the article Belle Nuru Dayne. The IPs mostly added mentions to the credits of various articles. Previous articles were Belle Nuru (AfD), Isabelle Nuru (AfD), and Isabelle Nuru (singer).

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' Clearly the same hoaxer. Loveoldies1990 made the fewest possible number of edits (ten) before being allowed to create a new article. So it's clear that making the hoax article was the original goal.

 * Declining CU. All of the previous accounts are stale, no logs for CU comparison, and I cannot verify IP addresses to accounts.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   03:26, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I had already blocked the account as a sockpuppet before I saw this case. It's an absolute duck, and there's no need for a Checkuser. JBW (talk) 00:25, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
